His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 1741

"Eric, are you leaving tomorrow?" Lilith poured wine for the man next to her.

Eric's manager was present as well. The manager had told Eric not to drink, but Eric was in a pleasant mood and insisted on having a glass.

"I need to go back to my hectic schedule again starting tomorrow. I refuse to go back if you won't let me drink," said Eric, threatening his manager.

"Aren't you worried that your face will look bloated tomorrow?" The manager sighed.

"I'll be spending the whole day on the plane tomorrow, so no." Eric raised his glass and took a sip.

"Avery, do something. Eric can't drink.” Helpless, the manager sought help from Avery.

Avery did not want to force Eric into anything and said, "Just let him drink if he doesn't have work tomorrow! It's fine as long as he doesn't drink too much."

"See? Avery says it's fine." Eric's lips curled into a triumphant smile.

Lilith poured herself a glass of wine and raised her glass at Eric. "Eric, thank you so much for flying here to help me despite your busy schedule. This is my first time representing a brand. I am really excited."

"Lilith, you have work tomorrow," Lilith's manager, Jasmine, reminded her, "but you should make it toast to Eric. Without his help, you wouldn’t have gotten the contract so easily." "Lilith, work hard and we will have the opportunities to work together again." Eric encouraged her.

"I will do my best. After working with you for the past few days, I've learned a lot from you. You are such a brilliant guy already, and you are still so professional..." Lilith sighed when suddenly, the screen of her phone lit up.

Avery was sitting next to her and immediately saw the screen. "Lilith, Ben is calling."

"Are you two calling each other every day?" Mike teased. "When are you confirming your relationship? That old dude Ben sure knows what he is doing!"

Lilith downed her drink and hurried away with her phone shyly.

Lilith gaped. "Is he doing something?"

"He gave Natalie a large sum of money to build a branch in Bridgedale," Ben deadpanned. "I thought that he only said that he would go against Alpha Technologies to scare Avery, but I didn't know that he meant it. I wonder what provoked him."

Lilith scowled anxiously. "What should we do? How can we stop him? Ben, can't you just talk to him?"

"You think I didn't? He won't listen."

Lilith’s blood ran cold at his words. After the call, she strolled back into the restaurant.

Spotting the gloomy look on her face, Mike teased, "I was just saying that you and Ben are officially an item, and look at you now. Did you two break up?"

She pursed her lips and shook her head. " Ben said that my brother gave Natalie a lot of money to go against Alpha Technologies.
