After arriving, she got a job at Antonio's restaurant The Capricorn as a waitress. Layla and Antonio become friends during the time she temporarily stayed with him during the time of Killing Club killer investigation.

Layla decided to help Antonio who was engaged in a custody battle for his daughter Jamie. She pretended to be Antonio's girlfriend, since Jessica his true girlfriend had frequent absences and lack of maternal stability, which was hurting his case. Layla and Antonio moved in together to show they were a committed couple, for the social workers. Their plan eventually worked after a long custody battle, due to Layla's help and Antonio was granted custody.

Layla was forced to continue to appear as Antonio's girlfriend, after finding out Jessica was suffering from Dissociative Identity Disorder. This was to prevent RJ from appealing the custody ruling. RJ eventually backed off from Antonio and Layla was able to move on. However, she loves both Jamie and Antonio very much and would always be there for them if they ever needed her.

Layla eventually began dating Vincent Jones, and fell in love with him. Unfortunately she found out he was responsible for setting up Cristian in his boxing match and left him. Currently Layla and Adriana Cramer started their own lingerie line.
