Avery almost passed out when she saw the trending topic online that morning.
It was not because it called her private life a mess, but because the immoral business account had posted photos of her two children!
It was a paparazzi shot that did not show the front of the children's faces, but it was just the same!
One could clearly see the children's features in the photos.
The post even went as far as to reveal the name of their preschool.
Avery dragged her weak body out of the bedroom.
She knocked on Mike’s door, then walked right into his room.
"Wake up, Mike!" she called out as she yanked the covers off.
It was a good thing Mike was wearing his underwear.
Otherwise, Avery would have immediately regretted her recklessness.
"What’s wrong?" Mike said as he looked at Avery with groggy eyes. "Avery... Is the sun even up yet?"
"It is! The kids are waking up soon."
Avery showed the viral news to Mike, then said, "Can you delete Hayden and Layla's photos? I don't know how to contact the website's office... This business account is despicable!”
Mike glanced at the children's photos on the post, then quickly sat up.
"Don't worry and leave it to me."
He put on a t-shirt, then walked over to his desk and turned on his computer.
"It looks like someone’s trying to mess with you.
"I think so, too. Are you able to find out who posted the photos?" Avery asked.
"Definitely. I just need to look into this business account, but it'll take some time," Mike said as he quickened his tempo. "Give me a minute."
"Okay. I'm going to get some breakfast."
Mike turned to Avery, then said, "Don’t leave the house! Just order some takeout. What if you pass out while you're out there?
Avery hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "What do you feel like eating?" "I'm good for now... I'll have a glass of milk if we have any." "We have some in the fridge. I'll get you a glass," Avery said, then headed to the kitchen.
By 8 a m. that morning, Avery was the number one trending topic online.
