Glamorous party were set in the big mansion on the outskirt of town. Ul was a powerful woman in society and the head of the Fullbuster family. The party was filled some powerful men and women. Gray set off from her car carrying Layla in his right arm. He wearing a black silk shirt with a pair of white trousers. His hair was combed all backward make he looks a bit younger, but powerful. All eyes are focused on him, especially from the lady. But soon they had to give up, because of the little angel in his arm. He putted Layla down on the floor and kneel down to her eyes level.
"Layla, Are you scared?"
"No, I'm fine."
She replied with a smile.
"Good girl. Now Layla, do you see that beautiful lady who is wearing a red dress and standing near the cake."
"Yes, Is that grandma?"
"Yes, that's right. Go and give her the present, okay?"
"But what if she hate Layla and don't want the this thing."
Gray laughs at her question. He knows that his mother is a stubborn person unlike his sister, but he sure that who ever see Layla couldn't help but fell in love with her just like Lucy.
"It's okay. Just hand it to her, I'm sure she will take it."
"Okay, papa."
Layla nodded in replied and walked away from Gray toward Ul.
Meanwhile Ul was talking with some of her best friends. Somehow she felt that deep inside she was looking forward to seeing what does Gray's child look like? She shakes away the useless thought.
"So Ul, Have you dealt with Gray's woman,yet?"
"No, I've never seen her."
"I bet she's just going after his money,right? Kids these day, even went as far as become pregnant. I heard she had a daughter, right?"
"Yeah, that's what I heard, too."
"Isn't that your son, Gray?"
"Who is that girl? Must be that slut's daughter."
"Look like Gray is completely under that woman's spell."
"Ah! That brat is coming toward us."
"Remember Ul, don't be soft on her even though she's still a kid, okay?"
They went silent when Layla walked step by step toward them. The little Layla let down her wavy blond hair with a pink bow on top. She's wearing a cute pink princess dress with a match pink shoes. Her shiny black eyes reflect Gray's eyes. There was no doubt that this tiny girl share the same D.N.A as her son, Gray which make this girl's her granddaughter a hundred percent.
"Grandma, happy birthday."
The little one spoke in charming little tone. She offers a present box that was wrapped perfectly with both hand just like her mother told her to do with the elders. She smiles brightly without notice the dangerous atmosphere from Ul.
"What is this? Who the hell is your Grandmother?"
Layla tears up a bit, but she still smiles.
"Papa said congratulation to Grandma and this is your present. Layla also help choose it."
"Go away you little brat."
Gray rushes when he saw that the situation is turning bad.
"Mother, Please stop. This is your birthday so I thought that I might bring Layla to meet you. As you can see this is my daughter, Layla. And Happy birthday to you. Sorry I ruined your party a bit."
Gray lifted his whipping daughter up on his shoulder. Layla wraps her arms around his neck and buries her face on his shoulder crying silently. Gray smiles and walks away with his daughter. As the father and daughter left, the group form back and begin whipping, too.
"My god! She has such cute face."
"Like a glass doll, I tell you."
"You meanie. Ul, If you don't her, I'll adopt her into my family. Poor girl."
"And who told me not be soft on that brat?" Ul breathes in heavily
"Shh! That wasn't a brat. She was a little angel."
"Yeah, such beauty. If she was the pretty, I bet her mother must be more pretty than this."
"Poor girl, I heard that she was scrapping toilets to survive."
"What!? Say that again."
"Wait, you didn't know. I heard that that girl and her mother went through a harsh time in life just to survive. 2 years ago, both of them were sent to my hospital because of an accident. They were on the edge of death."
"Why is the fate so cruel?"
Ul's gotten a little bit sad at the depressing story of little Layla and her mother, maybe she has to think twice about her daughter-in-laws. As the party goes on, Gray was walking around with little Layla in his arm. Ul got angry, because that Gray is planning everything and she fall for it. She couldn't take it any longer, so she called to one of her butler.
"Go and get Gray, tell him I want to hold my first grandchild."
"Yes, ma'am."
But before the butler reached him, Gray came running and bear a frustrate expression.
"What's wrong?"
Ul got a bit worry ,too. She had a bad feeling because little Layla was no way to found.
"Mother, have you seen Layla?"
"No... Why?"
"Layla, My daughter, she's gone. I couldn't find her anywhere."
