After Layla finished her medicine, the doctor prescribed her some medicine to take when she went back home.
When they got home, it was 4:40 in the morning.
The villa door was open, and the lights in the living room were bright as day.
After Mrs. Cooper coaxed Robert to sleep, she waited in the living room.
Seeing Elliot come back with Layla in his arms, Mrs. Cooper immediately greeted him.
"Layla's fever has subsided. I need to wipe her body and change her clothes." Elliot hugged Layla and went back to the room.
Mrs. Cooper responded, "Sir, go back to your room to rest! I'll take care of Layla. Otherwise, when Layla wakes up and sees you, she might cry again."
Elliot looked at his daughter's pale and haggard sleeping face and murmured in a hoarse voice, "Should I give up Layla's custody?"
"You love Layla very much, and if Layla lives by your side, you will treat her very well. She's not used to it now; you just need some patience. Though, it will take some time for her to adjust." Mrs. Cooper said," Wait a minute. When Robert is older and can play with her, she will have a sense of belonging."
"But if my daughter keeps crying like this, I definitely can't stand it." Elliot was exhausted after what happened tonight, and his inner peace was utterly destroyed.
If he could contact Avery now, he might consider sending Layla directly to Avery
He couldn't get to Avery's phone, and his messages were also sent in vain.
He could call Mike and let Mike convey his message to Avery, but he was unwilling to do so.
This was a matter between him and Avery. If she kept avoiding him, he would not contact her through other people.
He wanted to see how cold her heart was
"Sir, why don't you first return to your place for a few days? You can come again when Layla's mood calms down a little." Mrs. Cooper suggested.
Elliot hesitated and said, "We'll see how Layla feels in the morning."
"Okay. You go get some rest."
After sending Layla to bed, Elliot came out of the room and returned to the main bedroom.
He kept his eyes open until dawn.
He tried to close his eyes =c)=UKU< force himself to sleep, but he had a splitting headache and couldn't fall asleep.
