Filed to story: Love Entangled with Her Unconscious Husband Novel >>

Layla panicked and quickly found a place to hide.

Soon after, Mrs. Cooper appeared on the second floor and made her way to the master bedroom to see Avery.

She was worried about the match between Elliot and Mike.

Even though Elliot had recovered from the car crash years ago, the doctor had instructed him to avoid strenuous activities.

Mrs. Cooper did not want to see Elliot lose and get a punch from Mike, so she could only come to see Avery.

She opened the door, then walked over to the bed.

Mrs. Cooper glanced at Avery‘s sleeping face, and no matter how bad she felt about waking her, she decided that she could sleep whenever she wanted to.

Howeyer, everything would be over once the match was lost.

“Avery,” Mrs. Cooper said as she reached out to pat Avery‘s shoulder. “Avery!”

Avery‘s brows furrowed when she heard the calls.

“Wake up, Avery,” Mrs. Cooper said as she raised her voice.

Avery slowly opened her eyes.

When her groggy gaze landed on Mrs. Cooper, she broke into a smile.

“Wake up, Avery. Mike and Master Elliot are over at the tennis court. You have to stop them! You know Master Elliot‘s legs aren‘t in the best shape,” Mrs. Cooper said as she helped Avery sit up.

Avery rubbed her tired eyes, then mumbled, “Mike and Elliot are on the tennis court?”

“Yes!” Mrs. Cooper exclaimed, then told her everything that happened earlier.

As Avery glanced blankly around the room, her back broke into a cold sweat.

“How did I get here?!”

After a moment‘s hesitation, Mrs. Cooper answered truthfully, “You locked yourself in your car and fell asleep last night. I can‘t imagine what would have happened if Master Elliot didn‘t find you in time and send you to the hospital. Let‘s go to the tennis court now, Avery!”

The tennis match came to halt with Avery’s appearance.

Avery’s gaze brushed over Hayden and Mike, then finally landed on Elliot’s face.

“Thank you for last night!”

“Don‘t mention it. You should get checked out at the hospital again.”

Seeing Avery‘s delicate face calmed all of his emotions down.

“There were a few things off on your blood test last night.”

“Got it…” Avery said.

Apart from feeling a little tired, she did not feel any other discomfort.

Mike grabbed her arm, then said forcefully, “I‘ll take you to the hospital!”

As they walked away, Avery could not help but gaze at Elliot.

She was exhausted after her work last night, but Mike called her to the hotel for a birthday surprise.

She declined, but Mike insisted, and she had no choice but to force herself to drive to the hotel.

In the end, fatigue took over and she brought the car to a stop by the street before she fell asleep.

She wanted to go home and wanted to call someone for help, but she could no longer move a muscle.

That‘s how she ended up falling asleep in the car.

Avery felt a shiver run down her spine as she recalled everything.

She probably would have died if nobody found her.

When Elliot returned to the living room, Mrs. Cooper placed a bowl of chicken soup in front of her.

“This is Avery’s favorite soup. It’s too bad she didn‘t get to drink it,” Mrs. Cooper said

regretfully.

Elliot finished the bowl of soup, then returned to his room to rest.

At three in the afternoon, an ear shattering wail pierced through the entire mansion.

Elliot was jolted awake by the child–like yet deafening howl.

It sounded like a child crying!

Didn‘t Hayden already leave? Could it be…

Could there be another child in the house?!

Elliot took in a cold breath!

He walked out of the room and saw Layla’s tiny body trembling with tears at the top of the stairs.

It was Avery’s daughter!

How ridiculous!

When did she get in here?

How was he unaware of this?

Could it be that the mansion‘s most advanced security system was completely useless against them?

Elliot suddenly remembered how they only managed to get the mansion‘s network back up and running two hours ago.

Layla was carrying a backpack in the shape of a bunny.

She held a bunny doll in one hand and held onto the banister with the other, as she sobbed and carefully made her way down the stairs.

She did not notice Elliot following behind her.

The servants gathered at the bottom of the stairs and stared with eyes of shock at the little girl

who appeared out of thin air!

“Mommy… My Mommy‘s gone… I‘m crying so loud… She‘s not coming for me… Ahhh!”

Layla‘s cries came one after another, similar to the rhythm of an engine starting up.

“Aren‘t you Avery Tate‘s daughter, little one?”

Mrs. Cooper walked over to Layla and carried her down the stairs.

Layla pouted and asked through teary eyes, “Did my Mommy and brother leave?”

“They did! They left hours ago. When did you get here? Why didn‘t we see you come in?”

Mrs. Cooper carried Layla over to the couch, then wiped her tears with a napkin.

She was a beautiful little girl and was the spitting image of Avery.

One could tell right away that she was Avery’s biological daughter.

However, Mrs. Cooper did not dare ask about the child‘s father,

She reckoned that Elliot had already looked into it.

“I came in when nobody was around… I‘ve been here for so long… I came to look for my Mommy! I miss her so much…” Layla sniffled. “Why didn‘t they call for me when they left? Uncle Mike knew I was here…”

Elliot walked to Layla’s side and glanced at her little face.

“I don‘t want you looking at me!” Layla cried as she shot a glare at Elliot, then turned her back on him.

Elliot‘s mood instantly turned foul.

How dare she put on such a righteous face after sneaking into his home?!

This was the result of Avery‘s upbringing!

At that moment, Shea emerged from her room.

When she saw Layla, she happily rushed over to her.

Shea remembered Layla, but did not remember her name.

Once she was next to Layla, Shea offered her hand to her.

Layla lifted her gaze, then immediately frowned and glared at Shea.

As if that were not enough, Layla lifted her little chin and coldly huffed at her.

Not only did Layla‘s behavior not drive Shea away, she took it another step further and held onto Layla‘s hand.

Elliot had a splitting headache.

Why did Shea like Avery and her children so much?!

Did they meet before? Are they close?

Otherwise, why would she hold their hands every time they met?

Elliot was clueless!

“Go away!” Layla snapped disgustedly as she shook Shea‘s hand off. “I don’t want to play with

you!”

Shea was stunned, and tears began to form in her eyes.

Elliot’s heart ached at the sight.

Not only were Avery‘s children rude, they were also cruel!

What kind of sick joke was this?!

“Layla Tate! Take a look at whose house you‘re in right now!” Elliot roared as he taught her a lesson. “Didn‘t your mother teach you to knock before entering someone’s house? Also…”
