Chapter 2913
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 whether she should call Layla.
"Are my parents fighting? My mom informed the legal department of my company that she wants to be separated from Dad and leave him with nothing... What's going on? Why would they get divorced?" Layla was so confused.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
The servant glanced at Elliot, who looked extremely depressed.
He was not in the mood to talk, as Avery had gone into their bedroom and locked the door behind her.
"Come here," the servant whispered and took Layla into the guest room on the first floor.
The baby had fallen asleep after drinking milk, and Layla was stunned when she saw him.
"Where does this baby come from? Why is there a baby in our house?" Layla felt a tingling sensation spreading through her scalp.
"He was delivered to us this morning, and the person who delivered him said that he is your father's child," the servant said. "That's why your parents are fighting."
"My goodness! Dad's child?! With
who? How can he do this?! I don't
understand I really don't
understand. He already has four kids, so why would he have another child out there?!" Layla shouted. "Does he not want this family anymore?!"
Elliot heard every single word Layla shouted from the living room and covered his face with both his hands.
If this was how Layla was reacting, he wondered if Robert and Ivy were going to react in an even worse way when they saw the baby.
"Layla, your dad is going to get a
DNA test done with the baby, and someone is going to come to the house to collect their blood samples. Let's just wait until the results are out! Right how, you need to talk to your mom! She is really upset," the servant whispered. "Don't be in such a hurry to blame your dad! He said that he didn't betray your mom, and I don't think he's lying. The child was delivered to our doorstep, and if he really is your Dad's child, your Dad would have never let him into the house."
"My head is a mess right now, and Mom might not listen to me! I don't even know what to say, because I would be mad too, if I was in her place Layla said before taking her phone out from her purse to call Hayden.
After what happened, she knew that she had to get Hayden to come home.
"How can Dad do this?" she thought. "He has to be responsible. Why else would they deliver the baby here if he isn't Dad's child?"
"Hayden, you need to come home. Something bad has happened," Layla blurted out as soon as the call connected. "There's a baby in our house, and someone claimed that it's Dad's child." "I'm going to kill him!" Hayden jumped from his bed.
