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."

Avery was rendered speechless at his response. She could tell that he was truly willing to hand his company to her, as long as there was a proper reason for it. However, he knew that she didn't love money to such an extent, so she had no reasonable excuse to ask Elliot for his company.

"Are you nervous, Elliot?" She slowly began to regain her composure. "Did my question just now scare you?"

"What scares me isn't your question, but the fact that I don't know why you cried." He pushed the plate of fruits towards her." Have some fruit!"

"I guess I've had too much free time lately. People's minds tend to run wild then they have nothing to do. " She took a slice of apple and fed it to him. "I won't have doubts anymore. Elliot, thank you for loving me. I will love you more and more from now on."

All the gloominess in his heart faded at her promise, but he was still slightly concerned. "Are you sure you are okay?"

"I'm fine. My period is around the corner so my hormones are all over the place and I'm a bit emotional." She smiled gently. "I should eat spicy food from now on. It's proven that what's in the past is best kept in memories. It's more important to

treasure what's in the present."
