"I am telling Layla’s teacher that you will be going to the parents’ meeting tomorrow. | left the information about the father empty when | filled in the background form, so I'm worried that her teacher might not know who Layla's father is." Elliot felt as though he had been stabbed in the heart. "News of us getting married had gone onto the headlines a few days ago, do you really think that the teacher would not know?” "Us getting married is one thing.

It seems a bit troublesome, though." Elliot considered for a moment ;d-:UMU; said, "Let's just carry him in our arms while we shop.” Avery immediately rejected the idea. "Let's not bring Robert with us this time.
