"I see! Hayden, what do you think?" Robert turned to Hayden.
"I think your sister has to be insane to buy a place like this."
Both Robert and Layla were rendered speechless.
"I think it's a nice place! Why would you think that she is insane?" Ivy asked in confusion. "There is plenty of natural light, and she chose the right floor. It's not too far high up, and you can still enjoy the view. Most importantly, you can see Layla's office from the balcony." Ivy proceeded to list all the things she liked about the apartment.
Elliot glanced at Ivy with a gentle look on his face, and Hayden was silenced completely.
Avery chuckled. "Your dad and brother have never lived in a place this size before, that's why they don't like it. They've never suffered in their lives. They are just picky."
"But this is Layla's apartment. All that matters is whether she likes it!" Ivy mumbled.
"That's right, Ivy! I am moving out to be independent, not to have fun." Layla walked over, threw an arm around Ivy's shoulders, and turned to look at Elliot and Hayden. "Dad, Hayden, don't worry about me. I will never grow if I don't suffer a little."
Ivy sighed and thought to herself, "It's such a perfect apartment. How is living here going to be suffering?"
Avery cleared her throat and changed the subject. "Layla, hire some cleaners to clean the place! I touched the window just now, and it's coated with dust."
"Oh, I will do it myself later." Layla took out her phone and showed everyone the screen. "I've ordered a recipe book, and it will be delivered soon. Just wait and see my grand transformation!"
