The baby had stopped crying and was behaving because someone was holding him.The servant felt anxious as Elliot and Avery had always been a loving couple who had not had a fight in years."What if the results aren't ideal?" the servant thought.She set the baby onto the bed and took out her phone, wondering whether she should call Layla in case Layla could help calm her parents down.Half an hour later, Layla hurried home. However, it had nothing to do with the servant's phone call. The finance manager of her company had informed her that Avery was requesting a legal separation agreement where Elliot would be left with nothing.Terrified, Layla immediately set all her work aside and hurried home."Dad, what's going on? Are you and Mom fighting?" Layla darted into the living room without even taking her shoes off.Elliot sat on the couch alone in the living room.The servant heard Layla's voice and ran outside. "Layla, why are you here?" The servant was still contemplating whet

At first glance, he thought that the baby looked hideous.He was certain that the baby was not his, and since the baby had brought a crisis into his marriage, he would not have bothered looking at it had he not needed a paternity test done."I just don't understand! Why would you break our family apart? Do you think that you will be free if you get a divorce?" Layla shouted. "You don't have to sneak around like that if you want freedom! Even if Mom forgives you, I will never forgive you!"Elliot was rendered speechless."Once the lawyer gets here, sign the agreement." Layla sat down on the couch gloomily. "If Mom wants to divorce you, you will leave without a penny to your name. If you try to resist, my siblings and I will all work together to make your life a living hell."Elliot remained silent."Your best option is to take your illegitimate child and leave after the divorce. Don't show your face to us again. You aren't that old and are quite strong physically, so you can inves

"If something is wrong with his brain, let him rot," Avery said."Okay! Mom, why are you locking yourself in your room? Why don't I get Dad to move out for now after he signs the agreement? This is his mistake, so you shouldn't suffer for it!" Layla wanted Avery to get some fresh air."Let's wait until your brothers and sister come home. He needs to explain himself to them," Avery said."I know, but Dad doesn’t say anything other than the baby isn't his." Layla recalled her conversation with Elliot and said, "By the way, I called Hayden, and he should be back soon."Avery nodded. "I didn't really want something like this to be known, but since Elliot wants to act shamelessly, I shouldn't have to work to preserve his pride.""Yeah. Even if we keep quiet about this, rumors will start to fly." Layla picked up the agreement. "I will go downstairs and get him to sign the agreement. If the baby turns out to be his, we need to make sure that he doesn't get anything."At four in the afte

Ivy's heart melted, but she instantly stopped herself from feeling sorry for the baby once she remembered that he might be Elliot's illegitimate child."He has big eyes," Ivy commented."So does Dad," Layla said.Ivy was at a loss for words.The baby looked adorable, and she could not help but wonder how wonderful it would be if he was not Elliot's child."Don't you think he looks like Dad? At least a little?" Layla asked."Maybe a little... We will still have to wait for the results, though." Ivy did not want to make assumptions simply based on the fact that the baby resembled Elliot in some way.During dinner, Avery and her three children dined in the dining room, while the servant brought Elliot his portion to eat alone in the living room.Layla was the one to arrange this—not because she was venting her anger, but because she did not want Avery to lose her appetite.Elliot understood why Layla had made such an arrangement and did not want to upset Avery any further. Nevert

"I can't hear what he is saying.""Layla, come sleep with me tonight," Ivy said. "Maybe we've misunderstood Dad.""But that baby...""He doesn't really look that much like Dad. Why don't we go have another look now?" Ivy said."Okay! Let's have another look."The two headed down the stairs.Meanwhile, in the master bedroom, Avery had calmed down after listening to what Elliot had had to say."A vasectomy can fail," she said."The doctor said that I wouldn't be able to impregnate anyone if the surgery was a success," Elliot said confidently. "Why don't we go to a hospital to check if the surgery failed?"Avery glanced at the clock and noticed that it was almost nine."We haven't taken any contraceptive measures over the years, and you didn't get pregnant, did you? What makes you think that I can impregnate another woman?" Elliot's tone grew more and more confident.He shifted Layla's pillow away and climbed into bed.Avery stared at him as his words echoed in her mind. For a
