His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 1143

"I get it!" Cole hung up.

Avery held onto her phone and sighed heavily, hoping that Cole and Henry would come to their senses; if Elliot got involved in this, there was no predicting how the situation would escalate.

She feared that the peacefulness in the present would disappear if the situation got out of hand; it took so much effort for them to overcome the torture they had been through on the day of their wedding and it had only been barely two weeks since they finally settled down. How could the gods be so cruel to them?

She didn't know how long it had been by the time Elliot came outside to look for her.

He scowled when he spotted her squatting at the corner of the yard.

"Avery, why are you squatting? Mrs. Cooper said you came outside to call Mike, why did it take so long?" He helped her up and continued, "Did you get into an argument with Mike?"

She immediately clung to him and in a hoarse voice, she said, "Elliot, I feel a bit depressed."

"Because we moved?" He cupped her face with his hands to look into her eyes. "What did Mike say?"

"He's just moved away, and right after that, we moved too." She felt like all the thoughts in her head were tangled up in a mess. "I can't help but feel upset when I remember that Hayden is not by my side as well." "Isn't he doing well overseas?" He wrapped his arm around her waist and consoled patiently, "It is necessary to let our kids see more of what the world has to offer if we want them to have a brighter future. They are never meant to remain by our sides forever, so you need to adjust yourself accordingly. As for Mike, you should just ignore him. He has his own life and it's not our concern; neither is our lives his concern, for that matter."

She regained her composure. "Yeah. Has Layla finished her homework?"

"Yes. Mrs. Cooper has taken her for a shower."

"Okay. Let's go shower as well! You need to wake up early tomorrow to attend the parents' meeting at school."
