"Layla didn't even say that she ising over right now," Avery said.
"Why not? Is she afraid of me?" Elliot asked calmly before taking his seat on the couch.
Avery realized that he wanted to take the opportunity to speak to Layla and said, "Layla, if you are free right now,e over! Talk to your dad, and he will give you your passport.

"Alright! He won't lecture me, though, will he?" "He's already agreed for you to move in with Eric, so why would he be against you getting married? Just be honest and sincere, and I'm sure he won't make it hard for you." Layla felt less nervous at Avery's reassurance. "Why didn't you inviteto go shopping with you?" Layla asked.

Since Eric's car was of high quality as well, she decided that she could make up a few excuses if Elliot asked her about it. Avery took Ivy out and Elliot immediately ordered his driver to bring Eric over.
Getting married was not something to be taken lightly and Elliot felt humiliated that Layla was trying to force Eric into marrying her.
He could not stand having his daughter chase after another man, and as long as he was alive, he was determined to care for Layla.
