His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 2012

"Avery, do you know why I asked you to buy me lunch at the canteen?" Sebastian asked.

"Why?"

"Because I knew you would ask sensitive questions like that." He studied her like he had already seen right through her. "My father's spies are hidden amongst the bodyguards that are supposed to protect me."

Avery fell silent, not knowing what to say.

Avery had not thought that would be possible.

"My father made an excuse of wanting me protected and sent his men to watch me. Do you still think that it's strange for him to do something to my brother?" Sebastian lowered his voice as his lips curled into a smile like he did not have a care in the world for how abnormal his relationship with his father was.

"There has to be a reason that he's doing this, right? I haven't spoken to your father much, but he's just a guy-"

"If you stop considering him as just a guy', then all the things that happened in the Jennings family will start to make sense to you," he said as he placed scoops of food onto his plate.

Avery moved her gaze away from his face and turned to look at the trays of food before her. Once they were done, the two went to sit down by the corner at the table that was mostly full, so that Sebastian's bodyguards were left with no options but to sit somewhere else.

"You said that your father is sick in the head, but how so? Like, is he mentally ill or something? Does Angela know?" Avery felt like a gossiping wench. She had started looking into the Jennings to find Elliot, but she had realized that the drama surrounding this family had surpassed her imagination. If Dean was not an ordinary man, then it only meant that Elliot was in a far more dangerous situation than she had originally thought.
