Henry had grown up to be a splendid man, so that was what he thought of himself. But he had never grown out of his angry and jealous phase. Even now, he could not take it when someone made fun of him.
However, temper management improved with time. The man no longer attacked outright when he faced someone who angered him. Instead, he chose to bid his time and let the other person wallow in fear for a little bit.
Following the same process, he gave Layla room to make her feel nervous. He was sure that Layla would soon start to show signs of being uncomfortable and give up how she looked at him.
'Ah, I was told that Layla was unconscious for the longest time; mentally, she should still be around six years old. If I make her too uncomfortable, then she will leave soon. I just need not to give in…'
The man promised himself as he continued to eat his food. He was not bothered by Layla until now, but he was sure that Layla was annoyed by his lack of attention.
