There was a pair of sparkly earrings inside.

Avery had taken a long time thinking of what to get Eric as she did not know what Eric liked, so she did not know what would be the appropriate gift.

In the end, she went online to search for Eric's photos for inspiration and after viewing a few photos, she noticed that Eric looked wonderful with earrings and talked to Elliot about buying him a pair of earrings. "Thank you! I will keep this well." He closed the box and placed it into his pocket.

"Do you not like them?" Avery asked nervously. "I don't really know what you like and you can basically buy anything you like."

"Of course, I like it! I like anything you buy for me. I just don't wear earrings during holidays. I will put them on the next time I work," Eric said.

"Sorry for all the trouble these past two days. Mike told me that he didn't even have to bother checking on the kids because you were looking after them."

"Layla is older now so she doesn't really need me to do anything. Robert is a really good kid and spends most time clinging to his sister, so all I did was stand by and watch them play. I didn't do much." Eric thought back to the past two days. "I did play a few rounds of games with Hayden. Neither of us knew how to play. Haha!"

"Games? What kind of games?" Avery did not remember seeing Hayden playing any games before.

"Chess."

She stared at him blankly.

She thought Eric was referring to board games and had not expected him to mention chess.
