Chapter 564 Don’t You Dare Tell Your Papa!

Layla was taken aback for a moment and did not answer. Is Elise trying to get on my good side?

“Huh? What are you doing?” Quentin was anxious. “We have our own hands and feet, plus there are servants in the house too. How can we let you do this kind of thing? That basin must be heavy. Put it down quickly! Don’t hurt your hands!”

While speaking, he walked over and helped Elise put the basin on the floor.

Elise didn’t know if she should laugh or cry at his reaction. “You’re overexaggerating if you think I can’t even lift a basin. You’re really treating me like a princess.”

“You’re more precious than a princess,” Quentin said angrily.

Layla didn’t want to put Elise on the spot at first, but when she saw them being so close, her expression immediately darkened. She deliberately walked loudly in her slippers and sat down on the sofa, saying in a prideful voice, “Then I’ll have to trouble you.”

“You old woman, are you out of your mind?” Quentin went over to pull her. “We’re going to sleep already. Why are you soaking your feet? Get up and go to bed quickly.”

Layla shook him away and settled down again, replying impatiently, “A woman’s business has nothing to do with you. Besides, Elise wanted to do this. If I don’t appreciate her efforts, I’d be a horrible person! Stop making trouble and trying to drive a wedge between us!”

“What kind of logic is that…” Quentin finally understood how unreasonable women could be.

Of course, it was impossible to live to this age without experiencing these things. However, he didn’t need to pay attention to those women in the past, but now one of them was his wife and the other was his goddaughter. He was caught in between a rock and a hard place, and it made his head hurt.
