Chapter 2698
When His Eyes Opened
Hazel: âDad.â
Elliot: âAside from telling you this, did your sister tell you anything else?â
Hazel shook her head.
âShe didnât say what her next plan is?â Elliot had a strong sixth sense, feeling that Layla would be
desperate because of this matter.
âHazel said there is no more, you still ask?â Avery glared at Elliot, then turned to Hazel and said, âWhen
your sister wakes up, we will have a good talk with her, donât worry, donât worry whatever happens, we
will resolve it peacefully.â
Hazel nodded.
Avery dragged Elliot back to his room.
Layla was asleep now, and everything had to wait for Layla to wake up.
In the bedroom, Elliot paced up and down the room.
Avery was dizzy due to his anxious expression.
âOkay, donât walk around, Iâm dizzy from the shaking of your head.â Avery took the pajamas from the
closet, âWhy donât you go to the gym for exercise! Otherwise, Iâm afraid you wonât be able to sleep at
night.â
Avery knew Elliot too well.
Elliot must have trouble sleeping at night because this problem wasnât solved and Avery didnât know
how Layla would react when she woke up.
âYou still know me best.â Elliot was a little moved when he was anxious, âHoney, are you on the same
page as me?â
Avery: âElliot, you should go to the gym!â
âYou call me by my name⦠â¦Are you compromising?!â Elliot felt a sense of powerlessness in his
heart, âHow can Eric be worthy of our daughter?â
âWhat is worthy or not, I donât like this word.â Avery said, âWhen I was with you, I heard enough people
saying that I was not worthy of you. Even now, searching for our names was full of gossip and the news
said that I was not good enough for you.â
âReally? I would have deleted those tedious headlines!â Seeing that his wife was unhappy, Elliot
pretended to use his mobile phone to make a call.
âI donât care now. Elliot, go to the gym! How about I go with you? Iâm quite confused⦠Letâs talk about
everything when my daughter wakes up tomorrow! Donât be too anxious.â Avery Putting down her
pajamas, she dragged Elliot to the gym.
In another room.
Robert sat on the sofa half a meter away from Hazel, and the two brothers and sisters had an in-depth
discussion about Layla.
âActually, I donât know Uncle Eric very well, but Iâm not very unfamiliar. Because Uncle Eric will give me
gifts every year. Even if I canât meet him, his gifts will be delivered.â Robert recalled, âMany of my
classmates like him.â
âThen do you like him?â Hazel asked.
âI like him a lot! Itâs just that if he wants to be my brother-in-law, I have to think about it.â Robert lowered
his eyebrows, âDad wonât marry my sister to him. If I were Dad, I probably wouldnât either.â
âHuh? My sister likes Eric very much!â Hazel felt sorry for her sister.
Might be because Layla was a girl, she was more delicate emotionally. She didnât care about the gap
with Eric, just like Hazel didnât care about the gap with Lucas.
Because Lucas has never disliked Hazel, so now that she was the daughter of the Foster family, she
would not dislike Lucasâs status as not worthy of the Foster family. But she knew that her Dad would
care.
âHey! Itâs not easy! My sister has a stubborn temper.â Robert sighed suddenly.
âSecond brother, what should we do if my sister quarrels with her parents?â Hazel asked.
She chatted with Layla, and she could feel that her sister would probably fight for Eric.
Robert looked embarrassed: âTo be honest, I donât know. I donât think Mom and Dad donât know what to
do. Otherwise, I wouldnât be so worried.â
