His Eagle Eyes on Me

"Avery, you're always too soft-hearted." Ever since Elliot found out that his daughter wanted to find a partner, every single day filled him with anxiety. He should have headed to the office that day, but he did not go.

Even if he had gone to the office, he would not have been in the mood to work. He rather stayed at home and look at the responses to the advert.

"I'm not being soft-hearted. You're just placing too much emphasis on this matter. As if Layla could truly find her soulmate through this search." Avery took a grape and placed it in her mouth. When Elliot saw her eating grapes, he also reached for the fruit bowl for some grapes.

"Don't, you're already so angry. Have some apples to cool you down instead." Avery took an apple for him. "Here you go."

Elliot was speechless.

"Layla has also said that this search is just so she gets to know more people of the opposite sex. She did not say that she was going to find someone to marry. You should relax a little." Avery continued comforting Elliot. "Perhaps, after getting to know them, she will realize that she had no feelings for any of them. She might realize that Eric is still the person she has the most feelings for after all this..." Elliot said, "Honey, can you not provoke me that way?"

"You also have to prepare for the worst! A lot of things won't happen the way we want them to. Relationships matters are not up to us. Back then, when I was in a relationship with you, whenever we fought, there were many times I wanted to just be ruthless and cut ties with you, but in the end, I still ended up back in the same spot. Layla is my daughter, perhaps, she is just like me.
