"Dad, I thought you didn't want me to come home too late. Everyone needs to work during the day, and most social events take place at night..." Layla chuckled.

Avery, too, could not help but giggle. "Your dad lives in his own bubble. He didn't have to put much effort into getting himself a wife, so he thinks it's that easy for everyone."

"As long as you take your bodyguard with you, yes," Avery said before Elliot had the chance to say anything.

"I'm going out tonight, then. I will be home late," Layla chirped. "I want to go to the night market. Robert, come with me!"
