Leyla was born in London, England to a very wealthy family. Her father, Gregory Quinn is a very well known crime lawyer and probably represented the worst of the worst in the crime business, while her mother, Evangeline Quinn was a simple housewife who dedicated her life to her three children. Andrew, her big brother is older by six years while her little sister, Lily is younger by two. Their family life was quite wonderful while Leyla was growing up. At a very young age, Leyla found out that she was adopted. She obviously know that since she didn't looked like her siblings or her mom and dad. She didn't really care since she adored her mother. Her father, was usually out of town for business which meant that her mother was everything for Leyla and her siblings. When Leyla was around the age of 12 her mother sadly got diagnosed with leukemia which made a huge impact on their family life. Gregory came home often to help his wife and the kids and basically did everything in his power to keep the family together in this hard time. Sadly, after two years of fighting the disease, Evangeline passed away. This broke the whole family. Andrew the oldest brother decided to join the army as a coping mechanism while Leyla tried to keep it together and help her little sister as well. At the age of 15 Gregory Quinn decided to move his whole family to Vancouver due to his business schedule. Moving to a new country, a new town and a new life was very hard for still grieving Leyla. She didn't quite choose the best people to hang out with and ended up hanging out with some questionable people, doing very shady things like underage drinking and worst of all, drugs. She hid it from her father who was away most of the time but, when they found out, they were sure to send her to a rehab facility to improve her behavior. Nothing really helped, Leyla came back each time more and more angry at her absent dad. After finally graduating high school, she became very interested in being a private investigator and opening her own practice office. As she told her father about her new idea, he rejected it as he didn't trust Leyla. This decision caused a huge fight between Gregory and Leyla which ended up in him cutting her off and kicking her out of their residency. With hard work, Leyla could accomplish a license and did open her own practice office. She's still struggling with sobriety and getting into a lot of trouble due to her job but, trying her best really. Who knows what's waiting for Leyla in the near future. Â
