Chapter 2528
When His Eyes Opened
Layla: âI know Dad wonât agree! Thatâs why I wonât tell Dad!â
Avery sat down next to Layla, and said patiently: âIf your father doesnât agree, itâs useless if mommy
agrees!â
âMom, who doesnât know that Dad listens to you the most. Wouldnât it be good for you to help me
convince him?â Layla immediately acted like a baby when she said this, âMom, you love me the most,
and you will definitely help me, right?â
Avery pulled her arm out of her daughterâs hand and said solemnly: âLayla, your father doesnât listen to
me about everything. He can listen to me unconditionally for small things, but when it comes to big
things, we are all together and will discuss. Your father has your fatherâs principles and bottom line,
such as your marriage, he has his own ideas, and he will not follow other peopleâs opinions casually.â
After hearing what her mother said, Layla felt a little desperate.
âArenât Auntie Gwen and Uncle Ben also ten years apart? Why didnât Dad stop them from getting
married? I remember when they got married, Dad was very happy!â Layla frowned slightly, reasoning
with her mother.
Avery calmly said: âAlthough your Auntie Gwen is your fatherâs biological sister, when the two of them
met, your Auntie Gwen was already an adult. It is impossible for your father to ask her for his own
daughter. Besides, you Uncle Ben and your father are very good friends, and your father has no reason
to separate them when your auntie Gwen is willing.â
âSo just because father and uncle Ben are good friends, itâs fine. If Eric is good friends with him, so he
wonât care, will he?â
âOf course not. Mom said that your fatherâs requirements for you and your auntie Gwen are definitely
different. Even if your father and Eric are good friends, and your father canât possibly agree to marry
him.â Avery said, âLayla, take your auntieâs matter as an example, do you think the two of them are
happy?â
âArenât they happy? I look at them both are very good!â Layla thought about it, âEvery time I see them, I
can see that they have a good relationship. Uncle Ben is always smiling, and he especially loves Auntie
Gwen.â
âYes, you are right. Ben really dotes on your auntie very much. But we can also give you this kind of
favor. There are some things that your Auntie Gwen will not bring to the table to tell your juniors.â Avery
spoke very slowly, wanting her daughter to understand the pros and cons.
âMom, what youâre saying is that Uncle Ben is getting old, so heâs not good at that?â Layla guessed.
âThis is only one aspect. The age gap between two people is too big, and the generation gap will also
be huge. This gap will be exposed little by little in future life. Ben and your auntie Gwen can get to the
present, and both of them sacrificed a lot. Ben basically listens to your auntie in everything, and your
auntie actually tolerates a lot.â Avery explained patiently.
âMom, what you said made me feel a little scared.â Layla hadnât thought about it that much before,
âAuntie Gwen and Uncle Ben look so affectionate⦠Arenât you and Dad also many years apart? Donât
you alsoâ¦â
âHave you forgotten the conflict between me and your father when you were young? It has been for
many years.â Averyâs eyes were soft and her tone was calm, âMom and Dad hope that your life will not
be that type. There are so many twists and turns. There will definitely be a very good man who is
suitable for you. You might as well choose more and donât limit yourself to the past thinking.â
Layla: âMom, I know. I will think about it again.â
âYeah! Letâs go downstairs to eat first! Your father must be worried to death.â Avery took her daughterâs
hand and led her to the door.
âMom, in fact, I have always known that you and Dad dote on me very much. I will not do anything to
make you sad.â Layla calmed down, âEven if I insist on marrying Eric, I will definitely find a way to make
you The reason for accepting.â
âMom will not object to any of your decisions, as long as you make up your own mind. Itâs just that you
need to convince your father. If mother doesnât object, itâs already the biggest concession you can
make.â
Layla: âMom, thank you! I really love you!â
âMom and Dad love you too. I love you more than you can imagine.â Avery said, opening the door.
Elliot stood outside the door impressively.
âDad, are you eavesdropping?â Layla smiled and grabbed her fatherâs big palm, âDidnât you hear
anything?â
If she had, her fatherâs expression would not be so calm.
âWhat are you guys talking about, canât I let me know?â Elliot expressed dissatisfaction, âMother is
important, but father is not important?â
