His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 1945

"Chad! Don't panic! We haven't found his body yet! Maybe he escaped!" Ben said in hopes of consoling Chad.

Chad took a deep breath and steadied himself. "The door that leads to the basement from the inside was locked from the outside, and the other exit was sealed. Mr. Foster... How exactly did he escape? He even gave Avery his shirt! That means they were both inside the basement! They must have been there for a while, or he wouldn't have given his shirt to her. Why didn't he contact us if he managed to get out? Why didn't he help Avery?!" Chad was becoming increasingly agitated as he spoke.

"But his body wasn't down there!" Ben adjusted his glasses. "I don't believe that he's dead! I won’t believe it!"

Nick interfered before the two started fighting one another. "Stop it, the two of you! I will call the police here to investigate. My bodyguards will monitor the whole situation and inform you right away when they find Elliot. You two should head over to the hospital to check on Avery! I want to know if she's alive. If she’s still alive, she will be able to answer all the questions you have now."

Ben glanced at the hut behind them, which was surrounded by Nick’s bodyguards. If Elliot was still inside, Nick's men would surely find him.

"Didn't you say that Avery is alive? Let's go to the hospital, then!" Ben grabbed hold of Chad's arm and dragged him away. "Once she wakes up, we will know where Elliot is!"

Chad's tears dropped onto his glasses so he shoved Ben aside to take them off. "Ben, I was just trying to lie to myself!” He did not move to wipe his glasses or the tears on his face and simply stood still in the mud.

"I know... Same here." Ben's eyes reddened as he struggled to suppress his tears. "It wouldn't have been this devastating if only Elliot was with Avery."

There were no surveillance cameras or people living nearby so they would not know where to start looking even if they wanted to unless Avery woke up. But would she wake up?
