Chapter 518

Elliot lowered his eyes to gaze at Layla’s adorable, puffed-up cheeks, then corrected her,” How could you call me by my full name like that? That’s not very polite.”

Layla let out a huff, then said, “It’s because you’re a bad man.”

“Did your mother say that?” EHiot asked with a calm face.

He was not upset. Layla was just a child. What did she know?

She only knew things that adults told her about.

“No way! Mommy wouldn’t say bad things behind someone’s back!”

At this point, Layla was worried about snitching on her brother, so she cleverly changed the subject and asked, “What are you making?”

“Sweet barbecue ribs,” Elliot replied as he showed the marinated ribs to her.

“It’s your mother’s favorite. What do you want to eat? I’ll make it for you.”

Layla answered without hesitation, “I want chocolate! I also want meat! Could you hide some chocolate in the meat for me? Whatever you do, don’t let Mommy find out!”

Elliot thought about it, then said, “I can do that for you, but can you tell me what your brother’s favorite dish is?”
