His Eagle Eyes on Me

After Layla got up, Elliot immediately got up from his chair without thinking. He planned to walk over to have a heart-to-heart chat with his daughter. Avery held him back.

Elliot had a rather stubborn and traditional view of Layla searching for a partner. If he were to talk to Layla, it might only make matters worse.

"Elliot, why don't you eat? I'll go talk to Layla." Lilith took a sip of water before following Layla out.

"It's better to let Lilith go. Did you know that when I spoke to Layla, she used Lilith and Ben as an example of a couple with a large age gap?" Avery said to Elliot. "I'm not completely against her being together with Eric. It's mainly that Eric has already made up his mind..."

"Honey, I hope you can be firmer in your decision, just like when you chose me back then," said Elliot, stilling Avery's wavering thoughts.

"Elliot, I know that you don't like it that Eric is older—"

"That's not the only thing that I don't like." At that moment, Layla was not there, so Elliot could speak his mind. "He had pursued you before, have you forgotten that? If he were to get together with Layla, it's because Layla looks like you. Won't Layla just become your substitute? I don't agree with them getting together!"

Avery was completely speechless. "Elliot, can you not overthink things so much? Since when did Eric pursue me? He was always grateful to me because I saved his life, so he trusts me deeply."

Elliot did not want to quarrel with Avery over this, so he looked at the others.
