Chapter 200

It was six in the evening.

Avery was driving back to Starry River Villa. The villa door was open.

There was a red BNW parked in the front yard.

Avery recognized this car, it was Tammy’s car.

Why did Tammy come all of a sudden?

“Avery!”

When Tammy saw Avery come home, she ran out, “I saw your two children! If I didn’t hear from other

people about you adopting the children, were you going to hide it from me forever?

Once Avery heard Tammy’s complaining voice, she almost dared not get out of her car.

She realized that whenever Elliot found out anything about her, the rest of the world would know!

Furthermore, whenever Tammy found out anything, Elliot would get the news, too!

One could only blame Tammy’s relationship with Jun Hertz. Though, she could not cut Tammy off just

because she was seeing Jun.

“How could you?!” Tammy walked toward Avery and pulled her out of her car, “Isn’t it just adopting two

children? Why did you hide it?”

Avery was speechless…

“Also, the two adopted children do look like you and Elliot! Did you adopt them because they look

beautiful?” Tammy asked.

Avery said, “…Yeah! Hayden did not look like Elliot when he was younger. If he did, I wouldn’t have

adopted him.”

Tammy said, “Oh! How magical! They look alike even though they are unrelated!”

• Who knows. Kids change a lot as they grow.”. Avery said guiltily.

“I see…Avery, why did you adopt the children?” Tammy did not understand, “I heard from your mother

that Hayden has some issues, he’s not easy to work with. How exhausting it must be to adopt this kind of

child!”

Avery knew Tammy was being kind, so she explained with patience, “Tammy, the kids are angels even if

they have issues.”

“I didn’t say they’re bad, I just feel that you must be exhausted.”

“He’s a good kid. He never makes a mess.” Avery walked forward to change her shoes.’

Hayden and Layla walked over instantly.

“Mom, is Aunt Tammy your best friend? She bought a lot of pretty dresses and hairpins for me. Can I

keep them?” Layla asked curiously with her chin up.

“Of course! Aunt Tammy is my best friend.”

“Oh…thank you, Aunt Tammy!” Layla thanked Tammy right away.

Tammy ruffled Layla’s hair and said sadly, “It’s a shame that Hayden doesn’t like the gift I got him.”

“Aunt Tammy, my brother likes to solve puzzles. You can give him difficult puzzles next time. “Layla

explained, “My brother solves the easier puzzles very quickly.”

Tammy agreed, “Okay! I will buy one tomorrow. Layla, you’re so pretty, you look just like your mother

when she was young!”

Layla said proudly, “I’m my mother’s daughter, of course I look like her!”

Tammy was speechless…

Avery instantly pulled Tammy who was in shock into the bedroom.

“Avery! These are your kids? No wonder I thought they look like you and Elliot! They are yours, right?!”

Tammy saw that Avery’s lips parted, but she cut her off, “Don’t lie to me! If you lie to me, I will tell Elliot

that these are his kids!”

Avery was speechless.

She should have known better about these secrets getting exposed.

The secrets could only be kept if she never came back and avoided the people she knew

However, the world was too small. How could she avoid the people she knew? Now it was too late.
