"I can't get Mom on the phone either.” Hayden did not proceed to try calling Elliot. If Layla could not reach him, there was no point in him trying.
"What time is it in Ylore right now? Could they be sleeping?" Layla asked.
Hayden checked the time and said," Probably not. It's just eight at night in Ylore.
"Oh... Let me call their bodyguards to ask." Layla searched for the bodyguard's contact on her phone and called him. The bodyguard answered right away.
"Uncle, Robert wants to call Dad but he's not answering the call," Layla said.
"Did you try calling your mom? They stay together." "I did, but she won't answer her phone either." Layla glanced at Robert. "Robert insists that he needs to video-call Dad.
Why have they both turned off their phones?"
The bodyguard blushed. "Layla, you want your parents to get back together, right? They are both resting in the same room right now... So I can't disturb them."
Layla was slightly taken aback. "Are they going to bed this early?"
"They hung a plate on the door that says ' Do Not Disturb,' so it means they want to be alone for a while. Try to get your brother to settle down. They will call you after they've sorted things out," the bodyguard explained.
"Oh, okay." Layla hung up and turned to
Robert. "Mom and Dad are asleep now.
They will call us back once they wake up." "Hmph! Bad Daddy! He doesn't even call me, " Robert uttered in frustration.
"Dad is trying to win Mom back! Once he succeeds, Mom will stay by our sides," Layla lectured. "Don't you want Mom to stay with us? Hayden, too... It would be nice if all five of us could stay together.”
