NovelEnglishAfter 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.

"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 choseback 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 becyour 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 tobecause I saved his life, so he trustsdeeply." Elliot did not want to quarrel with Avery over this, so he looked at the others.
"What do you think? Do you think Eric had tried to pursue Avery back in the day?" Ben and Jun did not dare to say anything. Wesley was even more afraid to answer this question.
Wesley did not know whether Eric had tried pursuing Avery in the past, but he knew that he certainly had a crush on Avery.
Perhaps it was not a crush and the others knew about it too.
At that moment, if he were to say something, he would easily be the target of disdain.
Tammy cleared her throat. "I think I have the right to speak on this because Avery basically tellseverything. Eric admires Avery. He thinks of Avery as his savior, so he listens to her. He would do anything she asks of him, and if she were to tell him not to do something he would listen to that request as well. You said so yourself that Avery was firm in her decision when she chose you, so that means that she has never considered Eric. Their relationship is just as simple as this dish." Tammy pointed at a dish.

"I like Uncle Eric! I also want to marry him!" Tiffany defended Eric after hearing what her mother said.
Tammy's expression instantly darkened. "Tiffany, say it one more time!" "I said I like Uncle Eric! I have gotten a lot of autographs from him. You know it, too, right?" Tiffany said honestly.
"I like Uncle Eric, too," Wesley's daughter, a, said bravely yet demurely. "Uncle Eric is so handsome. He also has such a nice voice, Listening to him sing is an enjoyment. Other than singing, he looks so cool dancing, too! started learning to dance because of him." "I like Uncle Eric's acting. I have seen all of his work, including when he just started his career. I finished it all. I ever saw the one where he and Layla acted together when she was young! Layla was so cute back then!" Rose chimed in after hearing what Kiara said, bravely standing up for Eric. The adults did not expect the topic to be taken over by their children.
"I have also seen Layla acting together with Uncle Eric. To be honest, even if Layla doesn't take over Tate Industries and instead goes into entertainment, she would surely be a famous star!" Robert said. "Layla has the acting chops! She could sing and dance well, too!" "Layla and Uncle Eric are so compatible. Why are all of you hating him?" Harry, Ben and Lilith's son, looked at everyone. Harry was 12 years old. His full nwas Harrod Summer Schaffer.
