Chapter 2806
“Layla, I feel tired when you force me like this.” Eric confessed to her, “I didn’t save you
because of you. If it was Hazel, Robert or Hayden, I would be the same…”
“I know. You are going to say that because my mother saved you, you saved us to repay
my mother’s life-saving grace.” Layla blocked the rest of his words, “I don’t want to marry
you just because you saved me. Before you saved me, I wanted to marry you. Don’t think
that I did it purely because of guilt. I’m not a fool. If I don’t like you, even if you save me
ten times, I won’t marry you!”
Eric looked at Layla’s firm eyes, and as Layla’s words echoed in his ears, he lowered his
head in shame.
“Anyway, you think you won’t live long, so you can accompany me during the last period
of your life!” Layla said, “Just treat me as the last time you pet me.”

Hazel and Robert read the album, and then returned the album to Eric’s father.
“Are you still looking at it? There are other albums of his at home.” Mr. Santos asked
enthusiastically.
Mrs. Santos was busy in the kitchen, and Mr. Santos stayed here to take care of the two
children.
They were both sweet and sensible, like Layla.
“Okay!” Hazel responded in one gulp.
Mr. Santos immediately brought a few more photo albums.
They were all Eric’s photo albums.
Because Eric was good-looking, he took many photos of him since he was a child.
“Uncle, your family was in good condition before?” Hazel asked.
“It’s not particularly good. Our family’s conditions improved after Eric entered the
entertainment industry. As soon as he entered the industry, he became popular.” Mr.
Santos couldn’t hide his pride when he talked about this. “At that time, his monthly
income was equivalent to our annual income. So my mother and I lost our jobs a long time
ago.”
Hazel nodded: “Brother Eric became popular before graduating from university, right?”
“Was it a scout? I don’t seem to have heard much about it now. It’s all about drafts or
something… We, Eric, were discovered by a scout while we were shopping. Back then we
thought that scout was a liar!” As Mr. Santos said, he laughed, “Because Eric likes to
perform and wants to be a star, so I let him try it. I didn’t expect it to happen.”
Hazel and Robert listened with gusto.
Mr. Santos: “Eric gave us all the first money he earned. Because he was not very old at
that time, he listened to us more…”
“Is he not listening now?” Hazel asked casually.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Haha, he’s listening now too. To have such an excellent son, my whole life is worth it.” Mr.
Santos said, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw the door of Eric’s room open, so he
didn’t continue.
Layla came out alone.
Mr. Santos saw Layla coming out alone, and immediately asked, “Has Eric rested?”
“Well, I’ll let him lie down and rest.” Layla replied.
“It’s good. His mother gets nervous when she sees him getting out of bed. Haha!” Mr.
Santos said with a smile, and walked towards the kitchen, “I’ll go to the kitchen to help
your auntie. Layla, you play with your younger siblings.”
“Okay.” Layla went to sit next to her younger siblings.
After Mr. Santos entered the kitchen, Robert looked at Layla and teased: “Sister, you look
like the mistress of this family.”
“I am not the mistress of this family. This is his parents’ home.” Layla picked up the kettle
on the table and poured herself a glass of water, “I saw the gift you gave him. Why didn’t
you tell me in advance? It was so mysterious, I thought you were trying to play a prank!”
