His Eagle Eyes on Me
Chapter 586

Chapter 586

She stared at the pained and frustrated expression on his face and for a moment, she couldn't say a

word.

Elliot had come to the conclusion that Avery and Eric were in a relationship; if Avery was him, she

would misunderstand as well. After all, under what circumstances would a woman accept a card from a

man? It had to be when the two were extremely close and had nothing to keep from one another. Back

when she dated Elliot and their relationship was still in the honeymoon phase, she had never accepted

his card.

Her train of thoughts stopped when she saw the tears in his eyes.

Feeling as though she was being strangled, she frantically tried to explain despite the difficulty to

breathe. "Elliot... He is just asking me to keep the card safe for him... I didn't spend his money..."

"Really?" Elliot tightened his fingers around the card. "If that’s the case, I will return this to him on your

behalf."

With that, he picked the cloth rack off the ground and walked away to open the door.

The faces of Mike and the children appeared before him. With a cold expression, he walked past them

without a word and went downstairs.

"Mom! Did he bully you?" Layla ran into the room and gazed up at her mother's face.

Avery forced out a smile and hung her purse back onto the rack. "He didn't. He doesn't dare to when

you are all at home." "Avery, I heard everything." Mike stepped inside with a heavy heart. "There's

something wrong with the baby?"

Suddenly, it made sense that she was crying in the morning.

Avery pretended to be strong and said, "it's not confirmed yet! It’s just that there's huge risk, but we still

need to wait for the results.

"Oh, then don't get upset too soon," Mike comforted her, "I talked to a doctor and he said that babies

aren't as fragile as we think they are. Usually things would settle down once you are past the first three

months of pregnancy."

"Yeah."

"I got into an argument with him earlier today and I kind of blurted out saying everything." Mike stood

before Avery and scratched his head awkwardly.

Avery scowled. "What did you say?" "Um... I accused him of appearing like he cares for Shea, when in

truth, he looks down on her!" Mike said :e.;SJX: paused before continuing, "I also told him that you still

love him... I told him not to be with Chelsea...or at least wait until after you have your baby."

Confused, Avery said, "stay quiet if you don't know what you should and should not say! Who told you

to tell him all that? He definitely thinks that I told you to tell him that! It's no wonder that..."

'No wonder Elliot kissed me just now! He thought that I am still in love with him after hearing what Mike

had to say!' She thought. Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

She covered her mouth awkwardly and desperately wanted to hide inside a hold.

"Don't think too much. Right now, your main mission is to take care of your body," Mike comforted her,

"don't you think he knows that you still love him? He’s no fool and neither are we."

"Fine, I'm the fool, then. Okay?" Avery pushed Mike out of the door. "Get out! I don't want to see you

right now."

Mike immediately went out of the room with Hayden and Layla.

Avery felt as though she had been completely drained. She lied down on her bed and rested a hand

onto her stomach as the memory of tears welling up in Elliot's eyes appeared in her mind. Though she

didn't want to admit it, she would always get soft-hearted whenever he was sad. No matter the grudge

between them, her defenses would always crumble whenever he showed his weakness.

A man as tough as him would never shed a tear unless he was really hurt.

She held her breath.

All it took was for her to accept Eric's card for Elliot to have such an explosive reaction; what would

happen if she was to marry another man. Elliot had been flirting with Chelsea, so why couldn't she be

with another man?

Two hours later, a post appeared on social media with the title: 'President of Sterling Group, Elliot

Foster, was seen slapping a young woman outside a hotel!'

Along with the post was a screenshot of surveillance footage, which showed that Elliot had indeed

struck a woman.

No matter the status, whenever a man struck a woman and was exposed to the public, there was

bound to be heated

discussion over the matter.
