NovelApp"Your mother doesn't seem to be using her cell phone now. I'll call your Uncle Mike and he will tell your mother.” Wesley picked up the cell phone and spoke to the two children.
Disappointment flashed in Layla's eyes.
Wesley dialed Mike's number and told him about Tammy's childbirth.
"Oh, I'll tell her tomorrow. She's probably asleep by now," Mike said.
"Well. Layla and Robert are by my side. Do you want to talk to Layla?" "Yes. Let's video call her!" Mike said and hung up the phone.
Within five seconds, Mike called.
Wesley picked up the video call and handed the phone to Layla.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLayla looked at Mike's smiling face in the video and pouted.
"Where's my mom?" Layla asked, frowning.
"Your mother is sleeping." "lI don't believe you! My mother must be missing! Otherwise, why would she not contact me? Go to my mother's room; | want to see if my mother is really sleeping. " Layla made this request to Mike.
Mike hesitated for two seconds, then took the mobile phone and walked towards Avery's room.
He pushed the door open, switched to the rear camera, and let Layla look at the big bed in the master bedroom.
Avery was really lying on the bed.
The room was so dark that Layla couldn't see clearly.
Layla could only vaguely see the familiar outline of her mother.
When Layla recognized her mother, she lost control of her emotions! "Boohoo!" When Layla started crying, Mike immediately closed the door, afraid that the noise would wake Avery.
"Layla, don't cry. Doesn't your brother often video call you?" Mike looked at Layla's crying face; it was a lie to say that he was not distressed.
If Avery heard her daughter's cry, she would probably be impulsive and return to Aryadelle immediately.
During the day, Mike took her to the hospital to have her eyes checked.
The doctor asked her if she had cried because her recovery was stunted.
She pursed her lips and said nothing.
"My brother doesn’t video calloften! The last the made a video call to me... was last month..." Layla thought for a while, then she burst into tears.
Robert stood beside Layla, hugging her sister's legs tightly with both h;f*:VNW?s, trying to comfort her, but he didn't know how.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMike had a headache and said: "It's only the beginning of July!" "Go wake my mother up now and let her talk to me!" Layla’s eyes were filled with tears, and she ordered Mike to do so.
"Layla, | can’t wake your mom. She hasn't taken a nap today. She's getting more emotional since the divorce from your dad. She's always crying secretly. If she sees you, she'll cry like crazy again." Mike explained to Layla.
Layla relented.
She didn't want her mother to cry.
"Uncle Wesley said my mother will cto visitat the end of the year. Is that true?" Layla stopped crying.
"It's hard to say, but it's possible." Mike coaxed her. "Layla, you have to be obedient. When we have a chance, we will return to look for you and your brother." "Oh..." Layla lowered her eyes to see her brother and immediately squatted down, hugged her brother, and then they looked at the camera together.
Robert thought his mother was on the screen, so before he saw the screen, he sweetly called out 'mom!'.
Mike didn't know whether to laugh or cry:" I'm not your mom! I'm your Uncle Mike!" Seeing Mike, Robert immediately turned around and threw himself into his sister's arms, unwilling to look at the camera again.
"Hey!" Mike said indignantly.
Robert hugged Layla's neck tightly and muttered softly, "Let's go, sister!" About two hours later, Tammy gave birth to a little princess by cesarean section in the hospital.
