His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 1586

"I'll let you step in if there are any issues with them in the future that we can't avoid. " Elliot thought about it all night and finally made up his mind.

Being affectionate toward Ruby and her baby would be an injustice to Avery and the three kids.

Avery did not make a fuss out of it because her children did not know about it and he still had time to remedy the situation.

If the situation escalated beyond control, Hayden and Layla would hate him to death.

His greatest fear, however, was not that the child hated him-he feared losing Avery.

Elliot had suffered so much that he lost sleep when all Avery did was give him the cold shoulder for one day. He could not even imagine how he could continue to live in the future if she disappeared from his world.

His answer gave her a heavy sigh of relief.

She would not have gotten angry at him on New Year's Eve if he had done that in the first place, and she would not continue to lose her temper with him if he gave her the same answer a day ago.

"Have you thought it through?" she took a breath and asked.

"I have," he replied firmly.

With his definite answer, the dark clouds in her heart dispelled instantly and the world became brighter all of a sudden.

It felt too unreal, and she was worried he might regret it later when he woke up.

"You should get some sleep! We'll talk when you've gotten enough rest." "You don’t believe my answer."

"It's not that I don't believe it. I just wanted to wait until you have enough sleep and your mind is clear before we talk." She walked to the window and closed it. "I have no plans today, and I can't go out with my head like this, so I'll stay at home."

"Sleep with me then," he invited.

"Do you think Madam Rosalie is a cruel woman?" Mrs. Scarlet asked calmly. "She came from a bad environment and there was nothing she could do about it. You haven't met Eason before, so you didn't know how stressful the Fosters were before this."

Avery listened quietly.

"Eason is your typical businessman who only thinks about making money and doesn't care about his family. He doesn't respect Madam Rosalie at all and only treats her as a tool to bear his babies and take care of them. He never cares about his children, but he’ll scold and abuse his wife if she didn’t take care of them to his liking... She lived a glamorous life on the surface, but she suffered a lot in private.”

Mrs. Scarlet lowered her head when she

said that.

"If she hadn’t done what she did in the first place, her life with Adrian and Shea would have been even more difficult. This is the reason I never blamed her for being cruel."

"But then Eason died, and she didn’t bring Adrian back to her." Avery voiced her doubts. "If I were in her shoes, I wouldn't have been able to separate myself from my children. It’d be better to raise them in secret like in Shea's situation rather than leave them with an unreliable man like Nathan."
