When His Eyes Opened By Simple Silence

Shea and Layla walked out of the living room to the villa’s front door.

Elliot glanced at them, then approached in long strides.

“Layla has to go to school now, Shea. I’ll take you home,” he said as he arrived in front of Shea.

Shea nodded, then said softly, “I already apologized to Layla, Big Brother. You should, too.”

Layla’s gaze was lowered, but her lips were protruding in an adorable pout.

Elliot crouched down, then gazed at Layla’s face that was the spitting image of Avery and said gently, “I’m sorry, Layla. Not only was I late last night, I even made you sad. I’d like to explain everything to your mother.”

At this point, he asked, “Do you know where your mother went?”

When Elliot asked the bodyguard regarding Avery’s whereabouts earlier, he had kept his lips sealed and refused to reveal it.

As Layla looked closely at Elliot’s face, the nervousness that she felt slowly subsided.

He may be a dirtbag, but he was also verygf handsome.

I know where Mommy went,” Layla said confidently as she lifted her chin at him.” I have to go to school now, so I can’t talk to you anymore. I won’t be late like
