His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 1685

There was no point walking on eggshells to maintain a marriage with a cold-hearted man.

"You're agreeing to it?" Elliot did not expect Avery to compromise that quickly.

She cared so much for Layla, so it came as a shock that she was willing to give up custody of her beloved daughter to divorce him.

"Are you going to let Layla come with me if I don't agree?" Avery found it hilarious. " You don't need to tell me. I know it won't happen. It's not like things will change if I don't agree."

He felt as if a thousand arrows had pierced his heart when he heard her sarcasm.

He wondered if she felt that miserable to be in a relationship with him because the way she acted gave him the impression that he had done something heinous like murder or arson.

"I don't understand this, Avery." He picked up the pen after saying that but did not rush to sign.

His eagle-like gaze was burning a hole in her ruthless expression.

"Neither do I." Avery looked at him coldly," I must've lost my mind when I remarried you, but I was not thinking straight because now I'm seeing everything with a clear mind."

"You're seeing everything with a clear mind?" He listened to her cynicism and did not understand what she meant. "Why don't you enlighten me on what it is you saw clearly?" "I don't want to argue with you, Elliot, so don't you dare force me into making any harsh remarks!" Avery took a deep breath, picked up the glass of water in front of her, and took a sip.

Elliot clenched his fingers tightly around the pen. "I went to Ylore because Ruby is dead! Am I not allowed to go there even when she's dead?!"

"Don’t mention Ruby and her child anymore! Just let her die in peace!" Avery stopped him from talking any further.

Ruby and her child were just part of the reason she wanted to divorce Elliot.

She had already made up her mind to divorce him because of his indifferent attitude toward her! She thought he knew that, but he seemed to have been clueless about it.

"You didn't even need a reason to divorce me." He looked at her cold face =b(

"Have you talked to Layla?" When Elliot saw that things had gone way past the point of no return, all he could do was try and calm himself down.

Her seemingly indifferent look made it seem as if the two of them were not even getting a divorce.

He would be making a fool of himself if he put on a deflated look!

"No. Layla said she wanted to come with me. But since you're the one who wanted to take Layla's custody by force, you need to be responsible for getting her to come around." Avery said coldly. "Sign it!"

Elliot endured his heartbreak and crossed out Layla and Robert's names in her demands column. Then, he wrote the names of those two children in his column.

Avery welled up in tears when she saw him sign the name 'Elliot' at the bottom of the divorce agreement.
