Chad noticed Elliot's expression darkening at the corner of his eyes and raised his arm to punch Mike in the face. "Have you sobered up now? This isn’t a bar! This is Shea and Wesley's wedding!" Chad dragged Mike, who was stunned, toward the guest rooms.

He drank too much, and it was getting to his head." "They did drink quite a lot in the afternoon, " Wesley's father said. "You've been busy the whole day. You should go get srest.
"Yeah." Half an hour later, Layla woke up, and Avery took her to the hall for sfruit.

How was the wedding supposed to carry on peacefully? "Where is Elliot?" she asked.

It's nothing important; they just had too much to drink. They argued a lot at my place whenever they drink." Avery smiled faintly and said," Please take care of Layla for me."

"Elliot, you didn’t sleep, did you?" She walked toward him and grabbed his hand. " Why don't you go get sshut-eye?" She was not asking for his opinion but pulled him out of the room.

She wrapped her arms around his waist and leaned her head against his chest. "Elliot, | was kind of upset this morning, but I've recovered from it." "I'm sorry." She pressed her finger against his lips. " You don't have to apologize to me. You are not the reason that I'm upset." Elliot took her hands with a cold look in his eyes. "I should have forced Ruby to get an abortion last year before | left Ylore. Now that the child is born, | can't bring myself to kill her."
