Chapter 1024 - 021 Birth certificate along with it for you_5
"Thank you, Auntie Zhang," Avery Graham nodded, and then Bernard Taylor said a few words to the driver and came over to Avery’s side. Avery said to Auntie Zhang, "We should head up now; my parents must be getting anxious."
"Yeah, go ahead, go ahead," Auntie Zhang nodded her head.
After the two left, the Residential Area burst into conversation. They were now deeply skeptical of Old Mrs. Wu’s words, about how Avery was the one being abandoned. It was clear to anyone with eyes that Avery had climbed up the social ladder, not that she was dumped; if anything, it was she who dumped someone else.
Hand in hand, Avery felt that the usually composed Bernard Taylor actually had sweaty palms. She turned her head and asked, "Are you nervous, Bernard?"
"Yeah, a little," Bernard admitted with some unease. Instead of nervousness, it was more accurate to say that he was worried whether Avery’s father and mother would feel secure entrusting Avery to him.
Avery had said that only through her parents’ approval would she give him the Marriage Certificate and the birth certificate together.
Whether he could obtain these two certificates hinged on today, hence his particular nervousness. He really feared something unpredictable might happen.
After hearing this, Avery didn’t comfort him; instead, she laughed unapologetically. It was her first time seeing Bernard this nervous about anything. Even during surgical operations, facing patients with their intestines squeezed out, he had never been this anxious—back then, she almost felt nauseous enough to vomit.
So, when she left, it was also because she knew she wasn’t a qualified nurse and that she wouldn’t have made it far on this path.
"...You’re not comforting me, you’re laughing at me, aren’t you?" Bernard, hearing Avery’s laughter, glared with wide eyes and stretched out his hands, pulling her close, "Come on, give me some comfort, a kiss."
