Chapter 1434
After Mike asked these words, Layla in his arms cried even louder.
Avery: “Can you stop the crow’s mouth?”
Mike immediately shut up.
Avery coaxed her daughter, “Okay, Layla, don’t cry. It’s no big deal. your father told me clearly that the child in Rebecca’s womb is a test-tube baby. It’s not her and your father’s. We trust Dad, Okay.”
Layla buried her head in Mike’s neck, her voice muffled: “I don’t trust him. I don’t trust him anymore.”
Avery: “Baby, you don’t trust him. It’s fine. But don’t let this affect your mood. When you didn’t have a father, you were happy every day, right?”
Layla: “That’s because I have my brother with me…”
Avery coaxed, “Your brother will back at the end of the year and it will be the end of the year soon. Although you don’t have a elder brother to accompany you now, you have a younger brother to accompany you!”
“My brother, Robert is too young.” Layla said with disgust.
“But Robert loves you as much as your elder brother. Look at you crying just now, and Robert crying with you.”
“That’s because I scared him.” Layla raised her head with tears in her eyes.
Seeing her daughter’s sober and aggrieved appearance, Avery couldn’t help laughing.
“Mom, don’t laugh at me.” Layla blushed.
“Okay, mom doesn’t laugh at you anymore. Actually, mom understands your sadness, but mom wants you to be strong. If I can be with your dad, that’s the best thing, but if I can’t be with him, then we have to live a good life, right?” Avery reasoned with her daughter softly.
Layla nodded. “Mom, I won’t cry anymore.”
“You’re so good. You cried so loudly just now that the aunts and uncles in the banquet hall came to ask what’s wrong with you. They all care about you. We need to see more people who care about us.”
Layla was silent for a few seconds, then asked : “Mom, dad won’t come back, will you go to him again? Mom, I don’t want you to leave me again.”
