His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 1913

"Hmm. They seemed to have passed away when you were young." "My grandfather passed away when I was four. My grandmother was grief-stricken when my grandfather passed away. She was in so much pain and grief it caused all sorts of chronic diseases to flare up in her body. She died painfully in the end." Avery's eyes turned wet when she said that. "Before they died, they were still protecting our family, so we weren't in such a tough spot. After they left, Wanda started getting brazen."

"How did your grandfather die?" Elliot looked at Avery’s eyes, heartbroken.

Seeing the tears in her eyes, his hand reached out reflexively.

Avery pushed his hand away and wiped her tears. "My grandfather suddenly fell and hurt his brain. He could not be resuscitated. I remembered it clearly. Back then, my father brought me to the hospital to see my grandfather one last time. I wanted so badly to treat him and keep him with me so that he would look after me."

"Avery, don't be sad. Your grandparents are surely looking down from above, protecting you still." Elliot held her hand and continued walking forward.

Elliot asked.

"Stop trying so hard." Avery looked at him deeply. Staring at him, she said, "I have a boyfriend and you're still doing this. Why do you insist on making me a cheater?"

"You and your boyfriend are not married yet, right? If you are not married, the law doesn't protect your relationship." He was defending himself. "Many people are in relationships, and when they are in different places, they will keep their phones with them all day long. They will call each other,

Avery never thought that he would be so observant. He had been secretly observing her so-called relationship.

"You should know that he is busy too. He isn't like you, who abandons your work. If I remembered correctly, they used to say that you see nothing else when in love."

Elliot smiled. "If that makes you happier, I won't say anything to that."
