Hayden saw the expression on Avery's face change ever so slightly and heard a tiny sigh escape from her lips.
Tears welled up in Hayden's eyes.
He felt the need to protect his mom. His once strong and protective mother now needed his help.
In the blink of an eye, a month has passed.
In Aryadelle, summer vacation was here. Tammy wanted Jun to take Layla and Robert to come to play at their house.
If she weren't pregnant, Tammy would have invited the two kids herself.
Elliot wanted to go to Tammy's house with the two kids but was rejected by Tammy.
Jun took both of the kids, and asked Layla," Why don't you want to bring your father?"
Layla said, "I don't want him following me.
I am not a child anymore."
"Layla, you should be grateful. When I was small, if my dad could accompany me, I would have been very happy."
"I could give you my dad." Layla offered, "I really hope that he goes to work every day, and does not ask me about my homework. He's very annoying when he asks me if 1 am fine or not."
"Those are signs that he cares about you."
"The more he cares about me, the more I feel like he is reminding me that I don't have a mother." Layla looked outside the window. "Uncle Jun, stop speaking up for him."
"All right. I'll tell him to work more and care less about you."
"Thanks."
When they arrived, Tammy hugged Layla affectionately.
Tammy wasn't taking the third point into consideration.
During a check-up recently, the doctor said that she could deliver naturally with minimal risk.
She didn't know which to choose.
"Auntie Tammy, will my mother visit you when you deliver?" Layla asked, "Are you still in contact with my mother?"
Tammy's smile froze on her face. "She told me she wouldn't return when I deliver."
"She's never called me either. Do you think what she's doing is correct?" Layla wanted Tammy to do her justice.
Tammy took Layla's h>c*?PIX> and sat on the sofa.
"I don't think she is. Maybe she had an agreement with your dad since you are in your dad's custody..." Tammy guessed.
