His Eagle Eyes on Me

"Avery Tate?" A woman's voice came through the speakers. Layla was stunned as she had not expected a woman to answer the phone. "Could this be Daddy's new wife?" thought Layla. "Who are you?" asked Layla with a ferocious scowl. Ruby froze. She had thought that the call had come from Avery, and she had not expected to hear the voice of a young girl. "Could this be Avery and Elliot's daughter, Layla Tate?" thought Ruby. Ruby adjusted herself swiftly and said, " You are Layla, right? I'm your dad's wife. My name is Ruby Gould. I'm not sure if your mom has mentioned me to you." When her guess was proven right, Layla's brows furrowed and her expression darkened. "I'm calling my dad, not you! Why are you answering the call?!" yelled Layla as she lost control of herself. Avery heard Layla shouting and hurried over with Robert in her arms. Noticing that Layla was emotional, Ruby calmly said, "Layla, | know that you can't accept me, but I'm your dad's legal wife, and I'm pregnant with his baby right now. | accept you, and | hope that you'll find a way to accept me as well. You are only going to suffer if you don't.” "When did you get pregnant with Daddy’s-Are you saying that you are pregnant with Elliot Foster's baby?!" Tears came rolling down Layla's face. She was still a child, and the news had been far too overwhelming for a child. "Yes, I'm two months pregnant, Layla. | know that this must be devastating for you, but you need to respect your dad's choices. He'll stay in Ylore with me. You are not a three-year-old toddler anymore, so | hope that you can talk some sense into your mom. Get her to forget Elliot, and maybe, find another man." As Ruby spoke, she could already imagine how angry Avery would be when she heard those words from her daughter. "Layla! What's wrong?" Avery saw Layla sobbing, and Layla handed her the phone. She immediately placed Robert down. "Mommy!" Layla threw herself into Avery's arms and cried. "| called Dad, and his new wife picked up! His new wife said that she is pregnant with his baby!" Avery listened to Layla's broken voice >b"> XJP= held her with one arm. With her free hand, she took the phone from her daughter. Ruby was still on the line. Avery placed the phone by her ear and said, "Hello?" Ruby immediately responded when she heard Avery's voice. "Avery, | wasn't trying to upset your daughter. She asked me a question; | simply told her the truth.” "You told my daughter that you are pregnant with Elliot's baby? Ruby Gould, do you even know what the word ‘truth’ means? Do you really think that | wouldn't know if you were carrying Elliot's baby?" said Avery sharply.
