Avery was speechless.
The ravioli had been made by the two of them.
Avery was the one who had made the wrapping while Elliot had minced the meat for the filling.
This was the first teither of them had done such things.
They did not have any prior experience, so they did it completely by following the tutorial online.
The taste of the ravioli they had made was no match for the frozen ravioli sold in the store.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBefore they had heard the bad news, both of them were in a good mood, so they had not noticed the true taste of the ravioli.
However, after they had heard the bad news, the awfulness of the ravioli was completely obvious.
Not long after that, Layla got out of bed and cto the dining room for breakfast.
After Layla took a look at the breakfast on the table, she helped herself to a few pieces of ravioli without hesitation.
Elliot swallowed, wanting to tell his daughter not to eat them.
Avery shot him a look that warned him not to.
Layla sat down in one of the dining chairs.
"Dad, Mom, why are both of you up so early today? You're usually not awake yet at this hour!" said Layla as she ate the ravioli and stared at her parents.
After Elliot and Avery saw their daughter taking a bite of the ravioli, both of them turned their eyes away from her face.
The basic necessities that their daughter had in life were not considered the best, but they were not bad either.
Avery felt that her daughter was likely to spit the ravioli out.
The wrapping of the ravioli that she had made was a little thick.
The filling that Elliot had prepared was a little salty as well. However, Layla ate the ravioli! Not only that, but she also finished the other three pieces of ravioli in her bowl.
Avery and Elliot looked at each other.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBoth of their eyes were saying, 'Maybe the ravioli that we made was not that awful.' Ten minutes later, Layla finished her breakfast and got up from the chair.
"Mom, cover for a moment," Layla said to her mother while wiping the corners of her lips with a napkin.
Avery immediately followed Layla out.
Both of them walked out of the mansion and into the yard.
Layla said softly, "Mom, the breakfast today wasn't prepared by Mrs. Cooper, right? Did you notice that the ravioli today is a little awful?" Avery was speechless.
"If it was prepared by Mrs. Cooper, then just pretend that I didn't say anything. just felt that it wasn't as good as what she had prepared in the past." Layla was carrying her bag on her back and was preparing to get into the car. Avery immediately grabbed her daughter. "Layla, you're so sensible. It's fortunate that you didn't say that the ravioli tastes awful in the dining room earlier. You've helped both your father andsave face The ravioli today was prepared byand your father." Layla was slightly surprised for a moment, and then she sighed and said, "No wonder it tasted awful! I've not had such an awful-tasting thing in a long time. Mom, you and Dad should just sleep in a little in in the future. There's no need for you to wake up so early." Upon saying that, Layla got into the car.
Avery composed her emotions and returned to the mansion.
Elliot was talking to someone on the phone and was walking upstairs with his phone in his hand.
