Chapter 1733

Avery wanted to explain herself to Layla, but she could not find the appropriate excuse. Layla was no longer a three-year-old toddler and lies would not fool her.

“Layla, | was sick and the doctor told me to stay off my phone. That's why | had to wait until | recovered to call you," she said, answering with a half-truth.
