After Elliot was done, Avery muttered, "| wonder what kind of guy Ivy would like."
"She is just eighteen..."
"That's old enough to start dating. Elliot, you can't apply the sset of expectations you have for Layla to Ivy. Ivy has suffered a
lot, and you are not going to stop her from dating!" Avery wanted to take this opportunity to talk to Elliot. "As long as the guy she
likes is a good man and loves Ivy dearly, we will not stop her."
"That's a dangerous way of looking at this, Avery. Do you know why | have such high standards for my future-son-law?" Elliot asked,
"It's because those requirements can only be fulfilled by talented and virtuous men..."
"Why do you think a person's heart is connected to those requirements?" said Avery, disagreeing. "One's personality is partially
determined by genes and partially determined by the environment they grow up in. Even kids who grow up in ordinary or poor
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfamilies could have a good heart. Just look at Ivy. She grew up in poverty, and she is still the sweetest girl you can ever hope to
meet."
Elliot was rendered speechless by what Avery said.
"Sure! If Ivy finds an ordinary man, he can be the one marrying into our family!" Elliot said thoughtfully. "lI won't let my daughter
suffer out there! Never! | won't object to her being with the man she loves, and if that guy truly loves her, he would accept this
request of mine!"
Avery froze.
She knew that this was the biggestpromise Elliot could make
"It's too early for that. Besides, Ivy wants to focus on her studies right now and doesn't want to date anyone. We will see what
happens when she finds a boyfriend!" Avery tapped him on the shoulder.
"I told you it's too early to discuss this. You were the one who insisted on talking about this."
"I'm giving you tto prepare for it. lvy grew up in an environment that's different from ours and her standard for a partner might
be different from yours as well," she said. "I'm trying to be prepared as well. They are our kids, but they have their own lives, and
though we succeeded in stopping Layla from dating Eric, she must be really upset about it."
"She has always gotten everything she wanted since she was a kid, so it's only normal for her to be upset when things don't go her
way." Elliot thought that the pain would pass at spoint. "We can treat her like a princess, but that doesn't mean she's the boss
of us."
Avery glared at him.

"lI have a feeling, Avery," Elliot sighed and took her hand, "that all our kids are going to find partners that | don't approve of."
Avery chuckled. "That's because you think of our kids as perfect, so you want their partners to be perfect. There's no such thing as
perfection, and other people are treasures to their parents. We can't interfere too much or be overly picky, or we would just end up
fighting with our children."
He nodded with resignation. "You are right."
"Let's talk to Layla when we have the chance!" Avery felt the need to discuss the matter with her daughter.
"Sure."
The next day, Ivy arrived at the university, and someone called out to her from behind.
She recognized that it was the boy from before, and though he normally called her Ivy, right now, he was using her full name.
"What?" She stood still and watched as the boy ran over to her.
