Chapter 2674
When His Eyes Opened
âMom! I can find someone from the housekeeping company to clean up! You donât need to do this kind
of rough work.â Layla forcefully invited Avery to sit down on the sofa, âMom, Have you had dinner? If
not, letâs have it together!â
âI have eaten with your father.â Avery couldnât sit still because she found that her daughterâs face
seemed to have lost weight, âLayla, have you lost weight? Why have you become so haggard after two
days of absence?â
Elliot also looked at Layla after hearing this.
Itâs okay if he didnât watch it, but he couldnât sit still after watching it.
âBaby, do you not eat well every day? Do you not sleep well either?â
Layla panicked all of a sudden.
The worried and distressed eyes of Avery and Elliot made Layla feel particularly guilty.
She felt that she shouldnât hide it from her parents, but she also thought that if she told the truth to her
parents, they would definitely feel even more heartbroken.
âI⦠Iâm just on my period⦠I donât have a good appetite.â After hesitating for a few seconds, Layla
decided to make the big problem smaller, after all, her gastroenteritis was almost cured.
âThen you should go home for the next few days! Why do you have to cook for yourself when youâre so
haggard! No matter how bad it is, you can order takeaway!â Avery said, taking off the apron from her
daughter.
Seeing her daughter wearing an apron, Avery couldnât stand it.
Layla had never been in the kitchen to cook since she was a child. Now that she was so weak, she still
had to cook and eat by herself. It was really hard!
âMom, Iâm just on my period and Iâm not sick! I look weak, but Iâm actually fine!â Layla stood up from the
sofa to prove that she was fine, âLook, Iâm really fine!â
âYou just donât want to go home, right?â Avery saw Layla trying to be brave, although she felt
distressed, she would not force her.
âHey, I just want to stay in bed these two days and donât want to move.â Layla curled her lips, âIâll be
fine in two days. When my appetite improves, Iâll gain weight back soon.â
âOkay. You can eat first!â Avery took out the food she brought from the bag, and the aroma immediately
hit her nostrils.
Laylaâs stomach growled.
In the past two days, she followed the principle of eating less and more meals, and she didnât eat much
at each meal, so she was hungry quickly.
âAre you so hungry?â Avery handed the chopsticks to Layla, and then brought out the soup for her.
Seeing Layla starting to eat, Elliot got up and walked towards the kitchen.
Out of the corner of her eye, Layla watched her father go to the kitchen. Although her heartstrings were
tense, she was still calm.
As long as Elliot didnât go to the guest room, itâs fine.
âIâll go to the kitchen to have a look.â Avery thought about what Layla said to clean up in the kitchen, but
she might not have cleaned it up yet, so she wanted to go to the kitchen to help her clean up.
âOkay!â Layla responded, and Avery walked towards the kitchen.
On the counter in the kitchen, there were pre-cut vegetables, and on the cutting board, there were
chopped green onions, ginger and garlicâ¦
âOur daughter is quite patient!â Avery looked at the ingredients on the counter, and smiled, âIt seems
that she really likes to cook. People who have their periods are very weak. If it were me, I would
definitely not cook by myself.â
Elliot didnât want Layla to suffer from cooking, so he didnât pick up the compliments on Avery.
Layla saw her Mom and Dad in the kitchen, so she slipped into the bedroom immediately with the bowl
in hand. Hide all the stomach medicine in the bedroom under the bed!
In case Avery insisted on coming to clean her room later, no matter whether it was placed in the
bedside cabinet or in the closet, it might be seen by Avery.
After hiding the stomach medicine, Laylaâs tense nerves immediately relaxed a lot.
She came out of the bedroom with the bowl in her hand, and suddenly found that her mother was alone
in the kitchen.
âMom! Whereâs Dad?â When Layla asked this sentence, she found that the door of the guest room
opened at some point!
With a bang, Layla felt a thunderbolt knocking her down!
âI donât know! The house is only this big, letâs see if your dad went to the bathroomâ¦â Avery didnât
know where Elliot went.
