Chapter 953


    Daniel asked La, "Why isn’t your father here yet?"


    "My dad''s been here since the beginning! He''s in the banquet hall now!"


    Daniel scratched his head and looked around.


    "Which one''s your dad? Why isn''t he ying with you here? Is he azy bum who enjoys himself all


    day and cks off at his job? Is that why your mom isn’t with him? Is that the reason you don’t like him


    either?" Daniel allowed his thoughts to run free as he made wild guesses.


    La was stunned, but she was very much against telling Daniel the truth. "My dad isn''t azy bum


    who enjoys himself all day and cks off at his job! I just don''t wanna tell you who my dad is! You said


    you''re better than Hayden, right? You should find my dad yourself!"


    Mike smiled and asked, "Why do you want to know who Hayden and La''s father is?"


    Daniel said, "I''m just curious! My mom said that Hayden''s father is Elliot, but my dad said it’s not Elliot.


    The two of them argued several times about this.”


    Mikeughed "Then do you trust your mom or your dad?"


    "My dad, I think. Because he''s nicer to me," Daniel said firmly, "Because if Hayden''s dad was really


    Elliot, there’s no way he wouldn''t want a father like that! Elliot is amazing! He''s my idol!"


    Hayden did not bother to argue when he heard Daniel''s words and simply walked away silently.


    Not long after, the melodious tunes of a piano were heard inside the banquet hall


    When La saw that Eric was ying the piano onstage, she immediately handed Robert over to Mike


    and ran toward the stage.


    Mike carried Robert and stared at Hayden''s ssmates.


    "Do you have any talents? Would you like to go on stage to perform?" Mike was bored silly when he


    watched over them.


    Everyone shook their heads and showed no interest in performing arts.


    "Then you won''t get a girlfriend in the future." Mike scared them.


    "My dad said that anyone who can make money can get a girlfriend!" Daniel said sternly.


    "He''s right. You can get a girlfriend if you have money, but you can''t get a rich, beautiful, :e#?WLY=


    talented one like La."


    All the little boys were speechless.


    Time passed rather quickly and it was already four o''clock in the afternoon.


    The poker game had ended and Elliot won big.


    Avery asked him, "I thought you said you didn’t know how to y poker? How did you win so much?"


    "No matter what cards I had, they all folded. Are they scared of me or something? Do I look like


    someone who''s that petty?"


    Avery did not know what to answer him.


    "Where''s Robert?" He wanted to hug his baby boy.

    "He’s asleep."


    "Oh. And La?" he continued.


    "With Eric."


    "What about Hayden?" Elliot knew that Hayden did not want to see him, but he still wanted to know


    what the boy was doing.


    "With Mike.”


    "It''s not very different from being at home, is it?" Elliot frowned slightly. "Are the two of them not very


    sociable?"


    "You don''t seem too bothered about yourself being unsociable. Why is it an issue when ites to the


    children?"


    Elliot looked at her helplessly and asked in a low voice, "Why are you so angry? I didn''t treat anyone


    coldly today.” "Who said you could win all that money? You should have noticed that others were afraid


    of you and gracefully exited the game to make way for someone else."


    Elliot was a little aggrieved, but he thought about it and realized that she was right.


    "I''ll pay more attention next time," he promised.


    "There''s no point talking about next time when today isn''t even over yet." She felt a burst of anger in


    her heart and turned around to leave.


    Elliot''s big palm grabbed Avery''s slender arm and he spoke in a somewhat urgent tone, "I''m going on a


    business trip tomorrow. Let''s have a good chat when I get back."
