Layla’s eyes were filled with rage. “W–What are you doing? I’m part of the Quirk family! I am-”

“You haven’t been assigned any tasks, which clearly shows that you’re not considered one of us in Alexander’s eyes. So, you either leave on your own, or we’ll make you leave. And that won’t be a pretty sight,” Elaine threatened.

Layla clearly knew that the person before her was difficult to deal with. Frustrated, she turned on her heels and headed toward the Quirk estate to complain.

Roland turned around. “Has the dress been delivered?

“Yes. I. the top fashion designer, personally designed it.

“Are you sure? Would Alexander really let Isabella wear something you designed?”

“Hey, I have some conservative styles too, all right? With Alexander’s jealous nature, what else could she wear? But don’t worry. They’re still stylish.”

Right then, Zendaya emerged from inside. “Ellie, Isabella has changed her clothes. By my estimate, we still have another hour.”

Elaine pinched her younger sister’s check affectionately, then picked up the walkie–talkie to relay the

message.

Now, it got even busier outside.

Zendaya said with a laugh, “I just saw Rebecca and Scarlett. They both rushed over from the film ser.”

At that time, at the Quirk estate, the elders had already received the news. David and Selena had changed. into fresh clothes and were anxiously waiting for further updates.

Layla stormed in, her eyes red with emotion.

David and Selena exchanged a glance, then shot Greta a meaningful look.

Greta stepped forward, pulling Layla toward Maeve, careful not to disrupt the atmosphere.

“Mom, they‘

“Today is a significant day for the head of the family.” Greta said with a smile. “With many people, there’s bound to be conflicts. If you feel upset at any point, Layla, try your best to bear with it. Once everything is over, we’ll stand up for you. But whatever you do, don’t dampen the mood, or your brother will be upset.”

Over the past couple of days, everyone had noticed Layla’s subtle actions.

Maeve was quite helpless. She tugged at Layla, saying, “Don’t be reckless. Just listen to me and follow me.”

Layla felt wronged, but a stern look from Maeve silenced her. With many elders present, the atmosphere simply didn’t permit her to act out.

She rushed back to Maeve’s room and dialed Harvey’s number, pouring out her grievances.

Layla was shocked by Harvey’s tone, her annoyance escalating. “Why are you being so harsh? I’m trying to tell you about how Alexander has been mistreating me

“Alexander… Has your mother met Alexander?” Harvey suddenly asked.

“What? Of course. We’ve been back for quite a while now, Dad. What on earth are you talking about?”

“Did anything seem off to you these past couple of days? Harvey asked again.

“Huh? Even if you’re trying to win over my mom, there’s no need for this, right? Mom’s just spending her days with Granny. I’m talking about me here, Dad. You need to help me think of a solution. I’ve never wanted someone so badly. He’s actually planning such a grand proposal ceremony for that woman today. What is he thinking? Dad, you’re skilled in hypnosis, right? Can you hypnotize him for me and make him see that I’m the only one for him?”

“Shut up!” Harvey roared over the phone..

Layla was instantly petrified with fear. “Dad!”

“Lulu, listen to me. You can date any man you want, but not Alexander. Stay away from him, and don’t let your mother near him either…

“But Dad!”

“Listen to me! You can’t be with Alexander! I’ll be there soon… Damn, there’s a storm… Listen, Lulu, take care of your mother during this time. I’ll get there as soon as I can. If anything unusual happens to your mother, you must let me know! And don’t tell anyone, understand? This matter is very important! It’s extremely important to our whole family!”

Harvey emphasized his point repeatedly, and it was the first time Layla had heard such a tone from her father. By the time she processed his words, she had already agreed, and it was too late to change her mind. Harvey had already hung up. This left Layla even more frustrated, and she buried her face in her blanket, crying.

At that time, Maeve received a call from Harvey. They exchanged pleasantries in a perfectly normal manner. Seeing that Harvey wasn’t angry about her sneaking out, Maeve was relieved.
