"Layla won't do such a thing!" Avery interrupted him. "We raised our daughter. Don't you know what kind of a person she is? Don't you trust her?"

"Of course, I trust her. I am just worried that Eric might put her under his spell."

"Eric isn't that kind of a man."

"Avery, do you know Eric that well? We didn't raise him, and we aren't even that familiar with what kind of a man he is."

"How can you say that? He is our friend, and we ought to trust our friends. We only came to know Jun, Tammy, and Ben later in our lives, so why can we trust them but not Eric?"

It had been a while since they had a fight, and he was not used to having an argument.

"I'm not worked up. You are the one who is out of line here. If Eric really is the kind of man you think he is, do you really think that Layla would still be here? She would have taken off with Eric a long time ago," Avery retorted.
