His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 2427

"She said that the person she liked died," Avery lamented, "She said that she would never get married in the future. She is whose feelings run deep."

"I see." Elliot was not interested in matters regarding love. "She was rather honest about this."

"That's because I saw the scar on her wrist, so I asked her about it. We chatted for quite a while. If I hadn't asked her about it, she would not have volunteered such information. When she came to work today, she had a wrist guard on to cover her scar. I think she is afraid that others would ask her about the scar. She would surely not want to recount this incident over and over again."

"Hmm. Once I hire an assistant, we can have a meal together."

"Hmm. I feel like I'm going to get busy soon. Leah and George are getting married. Ben and Lilith are getting married."

"George and Leah are going back to George's old hometown to have their wedding this year. They'll wait until next year to have their second wedding ceremony here. Leah's parents want them to have one here as well," Elliot said. "Leah's family is well off. Her parents will not let her suffer."

"I understand. If Layla gets married in the future, we will surely throw a grand wedding for her, too."

"Avery, don't use this as a comparison."

Avery knew that Elliot could not bare the thought of giving Layla away, and she wanted to laugh, but she could not.

If Layla was going to insist on marrying Eric in the future, Avery dared not imagine how agitated Elliot would be.

Once they returned home, Avery went to see the children. Robert was already asleep. Layla was still doing her revision.

"Layla, be in bed by ten," Avery said, reminding Layla. "Are we putting too much pressure on you?"

"No! I'm not tired yet. When I'm tired, I'll go to bed." Layla looked calm. "Mommy, go shower! I'll do a little more revision and then I'll go to bed."
