Chapter 3067
The nanny could not help but take a photo of such a harmonious scene.
Just then, Elliot walked over and asked Shelly where Avery was.
"Aunty Avery is in the backyard checking out her fruit trees," Shelly said.
Elliot nodded before saying hesitantly, "It's normal for kids to fight. You don't have to worry too much about it. Robert used to get beaten by Layla all the time when they were little! There's no big issue as long as no one is severely injured."
Elliot only brushed it off because Aiden was the one who had been hit. He would not have reacted the same way if Audrey had been beaten.
"I know," Shelly said with a smile.
"When will Hayden come home?" Elliot asked.
Shelly had not contacted Hayden during the day, nor had Hayden contacted her to inform her when he would return.
"Let me call him and ask," she said, and the two nannies immediately hurried over to take the twins away.
Shelly took out her phone and called Hayden.
Hayden answered the call promptly.
"When will you be back for dinner?" she asked.
"I'm a bit busy today, so I won't be coming home for dinner. You don't have to wait for me," Hayden replied.
Shelly remembered the words Seraphina had said to her and realized that Hayden was busy because his company was facing trouble. "Okay. Make sure you eat," Shelly reminded him.
"All right. Go to bed early with our daughter. Don't wait up for me," Hayden said, worried that she would wait for him.
She hung up the phone after agreeing and said to Elliot, "Uncle Elliot, he said he won't be coming home for dinner."
"In that case, let's not wait! We'll have dinner now!" Elliot replied, preparing to call Avery from the backyard.
"Aren't we waiting for Robert and Ivy to get home?" Shelly asked.
"They won't be coming home for dinner tonight," Elliot replied. "We usually eat together on the weekends. During weekdays, they eat out." Shelly nodded.
After dinner, Shelly gave both children a bath and dressed them in their night clothes.
The nannies prepared two bottles of milk and handed them to the two little ones.
"Shelly, let me put Audrey to bed tonight," one of the nannies suggested with a smile. "That way, you can rest."
Shelly knew that the nannies were paid higher if they took care of the babies at night as well as day, but all domestic helpers were willing to do it. "Did you talk to Aunty Avery about it?" Shelly asked.
"Yes. We discussed it during the day. You and Hayden are about to get married, and it might be difficult to take care of the children during your honeymoon," the nanny explained subtly.
Shelly fell silent.
The nanny's words were tactful, but Shelly instantly understood the underlying meaning.
"Since you've talked to Aunty Avery about it, I'll leave it to you to take care of the children tonight," Shelly said.
She had to work during the day, so taking care of the children at night would indeed be tiring. If someone was willing to take care of the
children, she was more than willing to let them take over.
"It's not tiring at all. Are you going to spend some time playing with the children now, or are you going to take a bath and rest?" the nanny asked.
"You can take the children away now!" Shelly wanted to be alone for a while.
The two nannies carried the children out of the room, and Shelly suddenly felt a sense of emptiness.
She sat on the edge of the bed,
