His Eagle Eyes on Me

"Why do you seem a little unhappy about that?" Elliot asked with a smile. "Hayden is still on your side!"

"I'm not unhappy. Wouldn't I be less worried if you had a good relationship with the children? When they have holidays, you can be the one who takes care of them, while I just do nothing but comment on all of you." Avery could not help but smile. "Since you like to take care of the children so much, I will have to give you an award at the end of the year. Award of The Best Daddy!"

"Thank you! I don't need the award. The children are mine. Caring for them is my responsibility and obligation." Elliot looked relaxed. "The children also won't need us for much longer. Hayden doesn't need us at all anymore. We need him, in fact. Layla also doesn't need us that much. If we weren't so strict with her, don't you think that she would run out and play the moment she had a holiday? Didn't she keep asking for Eric to stay at our place to play with her during our honeymoon? If it weren't for her final exams, don't you think that she would ask Eric to take her out to play?"

Avery had not thought about this, but when she heard what Elliot said, she was suddenly flustered.

"Only Robert treats us like we're precious right now. If Layla had time to be with him, he wouldn't play with us either," Elliot continued. "The children grow up quickly. In a few years, he is going to elementary school. He will have his friends, and he won't stick to us anymore."

"Why are you getting sentimental? Do you really like to take care of the children?" Avery teased. "Didn't you also move out of your parents' house when you grew up? Why did you expect the children to always stick to us?"
