Chapter 2596
When His Eyes Opened
âWhat does this have to do with Eric?â Avery picked up a chopstick for Elliot, and said, âDidnât you see
Ericâs behavior just now? Eric doesnât have that kind of thought for Layla. Itâs Laylaâs problem.â
âWhatâs wrong with Layla?â Elliot was eager to protect Layla, âShe is just a blank sheet of paper, and
we need to guide her well.â
âYou canât guide her always.â Avery had patiently communicated with Layla before.
If Layla was a child, Avery might be able to guide her. But she was 25 years old, and she would no
longer follow other peopleâs arrangements and guidance casually.
Everyone had the right to choose their own life.
âIâll have a good talk with Layla tonight.â Elliot vowed.
âOkay! Donât finish talking, Layla will come to me to complain.â Avery teased.
Elliot: âDonât you believe me?â
Avery: âI just know Layla too well.â
Eric listened to what they said, and dared not interrupt. He lowered his head and ate food in silence.
âEric, I will tell you clearly today,â Elliot suddenly looked at Eric, and said coldly, âI will never let Layla
marry you. If you want to marry Layla, do it in your next life!â After a pause, he said again, âIt wonât work
in the next life either!â
Eric: âI donât think I asked Layla to marry me?â
Avery blushed in embarrassment: âHoney, letâs stop this matter. You want to guide Layla, so you should
find an opportunity to talk to her. Eric didnât do anything wrong, so donât target him.â
Elliot didnât refute, but he couldnât eat either.
Avery understood his mood.
Elliot had always held Layla as a treasure in his palm. When Layla was a child, he was afraid that she
would stumble, and wished to install a surveillance camera on Layla and wished to follow her all day
and guard her 24 hours a day.
All the while, Layla listened to them both very well.
The choice of high school and university, Layla followed Elliotâs arrangement.
And the postgraduate study also obeyed Elliotâs arrangement.
In the past few years, their family atmosphere had been very harmonious and happy.
Unexpectedly, the daughter showed her strong consciousness in choosing a mate.
Avery respected Layla and understood Elliotâs distress.
âHusband, youâd better be careful! We still have two sons who havenât found a partner. Hayden
shouldnât worry about it, but Robert will give you a surprise when the time comes.â Avery said this
because she is a parent. The desire for children was idealized.
And things like fate were sometimes unreasonable.
âAvery, you remind me of my parents.â Eric said awkwardly, âAfter my accident, they started urging me
to have a baby.â
Avery: âHaha, I know! Although I really want Hayden and Layla to have a family, I hope they can find
someone they like and start a family. Otherwise, itâs better to be single after getting married.â
Eric: âYes.â
A thought flashed through Elliotâs mind: âIf I remember correctly, you had hemiplegia before, right? Are
you still fertile?â
Eric: ââ¦â
Avery: âThis is his privacy, itâs too rude for you to ask directly like this.â
Elliot raised his eyebrows and looked at Eric provocatively.
