His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 1150

"Yes." He handed her the tissue and stared into her eyes. "Why are you tearing up?"

She wiped her tears with the tissue and said, "Probably because it's been too long since I had spicy food so I am kind of struggling to stomach it; besides, when I think about how caring you've been to me and the children, I feel like I have the entire world in the palm of my hand."

"Isn't that a good thing?" His heart ached at the tears in her eyes.

"It's good! I am happy.” She picked up the glass to take a sip of water. "Elliot, I came across a comment on social media last night that said you value money and profit above all. That person even said that you married me because I am not so bad at earning money as well; that you probably wouldn't marry me if I can't make money."

Elliot gaped at what she said.

"That's why I asked you the question just now," she continued.

"Do you think that all the things I've said to you in the past are nothing but lies?" He questioned in a cold tone.

"Of course I trust you. I just can't help but worry when I see those comments." She forced a smile. "I'm not suspecting you of anything. It's just a discussion.”

"You are doubting me, Avery." Elliot instantly lost his appetite. "You wouldn't have asked if you had any doubt about it at all."

"Fine. Let's say I am having doubts about you, but you can have doubts about me, too!"

"What for? I have no doubt about you."

"Tell me, then. What’s more important, money or me?" She stared at him seriously and requested for an answer once again. " Do you value your company above me?"

He had not expected that Avery would cling to the topic; it almost felt like she was provoked in some way and her tears were caused by something else, instead of the spicy food as she had claimed.

"Have I failed in providing you a sense of security?" He stared dazedly at her. "It's not like we have only known each other for a few days or a few years. Do you really not know the answer to those questions? You can't seem to believe it even if I gave you the answers."
