Chapter 953

Daniel asked Layla, “Why isn’t your father here yet?” “My dad’s been here since the beginning! He’s in the banquet

hall now!” Daniel scratched his head and looked around. “Which one’s your dad? Why isn’t he playing with you

here? Is he a lazy bum who enjoys himself all day and slacks off at his job? Is that why your mom isn’t with him? Is

that the reason you don’t like him either?” Daniel allowed his thoughts to run free as he made wild guesses.

Layla was stunned, but she was very much against telling Daniel the truth. “My dad isn’t a lazy bum who enjoys

himself all day and slacks off at his job! I just don’t wanna tell you who my dad is! You said you’re better than

Hayden, right? You should find my dad yourself!” Mike smiled and asked, “Why do you want to know who Hayden

and Layla’s father is?” Daniel said, “I’m just curious! My mom said that Hayden’s father is Elliot, but my dad said it’s

not Elliot. The two of them argued several times about this.” Mike laughed. “Then do you trust your mom or your

dad?” “My dad, I think. Because he’s nicer to me,” Daniel said firmly, “Because if Hayden’s dad was really Elliot,

there’s no way he wouldn’t want a father like that! Elliot is amazing! He’s my idol!

Hayden did not bother to argue when he heard Daniel’s words and simply walked away silently. Not long after, the

melodious tunes of a piano were heard inside the banquet hall.

When Layla saw that Eric was playing the piano onstage, she immediately handed Robert over to Mike and ran

toward the stage.

Mike carried Robert and stared at Hayden’s classmates. “Do you have any talents? Would you like to go on stage to

perform?” Mike was bored silly when he watched over them. Everyone shook their heads and showed no interest in

performing arts. “Then you won’t get a girlfriend in the future.” Mike scareded them. “My dad said that anyone who

can make money can get a girlfriend!” Daniel said sternly. “He’s right. You can get a girlfriend if you have money,

but you can’t get a rich, beautiful, and talented one likeze Layla.” All the little boys were speechless. Time passed

rather quickly and it was already four o’clock in thef2 afternoon. The poker game had ended and Elliot won big.

Avery asked him, “I thought you said you didn’t know how to play poker? How did you win s04e much?”

“No matter what cards I had, they all folded. Are they scared of me or something? Do I look

like someone who’s that petty?”

Avery did not know what to answer4e him. “Where’s Robert?” He wanted to hug his baby boy. “He’s98 asleep.” “Oh.

And Layla?” he continued. “With Eric.” “What about Hayden?” Elliot knew that Hayden did not want to see him, but

he still wanted to know what the boy was doing. “With Mike.”

“It’s not very different from being at home, is it?” Elliot frowned slightly. “Are the two of them not very sociable?”

“You don’t seem too bothered about yourself being unsociable. Why is it an issue when it comes to the children?”

Elliot looked at her helplessly and asked in a low voice, “Why are you so angry? I didn’t treat anyone coldly today.”

“Who said you could win all that money? You should have noticed that others were afraid of you and gracefully

exited the game to make way for someone else.” Elliot was a little aggrieved, but he thought about it and realized

that she was right. “I’ll pay more attention next time,” he promised, “There’s no point talking about next time when

today isn’t even over yet.” She felt a burst of anger in her heart and turned around to leave. Elliot’s big palm

grabbed Avery’s slender arm and he spoke in a somewhat urgent tone, “I’m going on a business trip tomorrow.

Let’s have a good chat when I get back.”
