so revealing things tomorrow would have the biggest impact.
"Our lives won't be ruined as long as you and the children are by my side." Elliot's voice was low and hoarse but filled with magnetism.
"I know things won't change between us, but | don't want you to have to suffer such major scrutiny. Even if the truth is exposed, and a majority of people feel the sasand don't think you were in the wrong, there would still be plenty of people who would make you the bad guy." Avery knew she was being greedy.
She knew that Elliot would be greatly affected by the exposure of the truth, but even then, he would still try to feign nonchalance.
"How can someone as proud as him be able to endure a scandal like this?" thought Avery.
"I don't care about what other people think, Avery," Elliot said as he gazed at Avery. " I'm not that weak. Trust me, alright?" Avery nodded and said, "I trust you, Elliot. I've always trusted you. I'm just not brave enough. I'll try my best to compose my emotions. Go and take a shower. I'll keep Robert company for now." "Where's Layla?" Elliot asked as he unbuttoned his shirt. "I haven't seen her all night.” "She's been stuck to Mike! He hasn't been hfor a few days so she's been missing him a lot." "I see. Is Eric arriving tomorrow?" "He's got work tonight and said he'll cover once he wraps up. He'll probably arrive in the middle of the night, so he asked us not to wait for him." Avery placed Robert down on the bed, then pulled out his pajamas from the suitcase.
After Elliot entered the bathroom, Mrs. Cooper returned with Layla.
Layla was covered in sweat, but judging from her pout, she probably wanted to have more fun.
"You reek of alcohol, Layla." Avery took a sniff of her daughter, then led her to another bathroom for a bath.
The villa they were staying at had four bedrooms >b& two living rooms. Layla and Robert were staying there with Avery and Elliot.
"Why aren't you and Daddy going out to have sfun, Mommy? They're playing games out there. It's a lot of fun!" Layla was standing obediently in the bathtub as Avery helped her with her bath.

Daddy and | won't have much tto keep you company tomorrow." "I'm not worried! Uncle Eric will be withtomorrow!" said Layla. She looked slightly spoilt but fearless. "Uncle Eric said he's takingfor a movie shoot over summer break. | can't stay at hwith you during summer break now, Mommy!" "Did you already discuss this in private?" Avery sighed.
"That's right! Didn’t you say it was up to us? You didn't say anything when Hayden went abroad, so you should letshoot a movie, too," said Layla, negotiating with her mother as she puffed her cheeks.
"The two of you are all grown up now. | can't, nor do | want to, control you," Avery said as she accepted her fate. "Your father said we won't bother with you at all once you're all of age." "He's not bothering with us now either! He should just focus on himself and not make you mad!" Layla said sharply.
"Alright. When you go for your movie shoot with Uncle Eric in the summer, I'll go to Bridgedale to see your brother.” "Hmph. Can't you just wait until I'm done with the shoot and takewith you to go see Hayden?" Layla mumbled unhappily.
"Do you think @a movie shoot is something that will take a couple of days to wrap up? Since you've decided to beca celebrity, you have to take every single job you get seriously. Otherwise, people will say you becfamous because of your father...
Look at how upset your brother is because of that.” "l won't get as mad as Hayden!" Layla mumbled softly. "If Daddy is willing to support me, I'd happily announce to the world that he's my Daddy!" Avery could not help but laugh.
"You sure are optimistic." "Of course! Daddy's incredible. Everyone will be envious after finding out that I'm his daughter.” The smile on Avery's face instantly froze." Layla, if your father one day loses his glory, will you still be proud of him?" Layla was stunned for a moment. "What do you mean by that. Mommy?" "If there comes a day when everyone will criticize him..."
