His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 2021

"Dean, don't get frustrated over such small matters." Angela poured him a glass of water. "Who are you killing Avery for? I never said I wanted her dead."

"I have a daughter called Natalie. She is the one behind what happened in Ylore. I want to kill Avery because I don’t want her to find out that Natalie is behind it."

Angela chuckled. "I thought you don’t really care about your daughters?"

"Natalie is different. She is now the person in charge of Tate Industries," said Dean proudly. "Her talent surpasses that of my two sons. I want to remove Avery from her path so that she can obtain Tate Industries.

"I see. But how would you benefit from helping her? You haven't acknowledged her as your daughter, right? If you help her out and in the end, she refuses to see you as her father, then all this effort will be wasted," Angela reminded him. "The consequences of killing Avery Tate can be quite heavy to bear!"

"It's not like I've succeeded."

"Are you going to try again?" Angela studied his side profile. "Do not get in the way of my plan for the sake of your daughter. I won't allow anyone from stopping him from me from executing my plan."

"Relax, Angela. Even if I were to kill Avery, I won't leave any breadcrumbs for anyone to pick up."

By the time she returned home, it was already seven at night. It was not early nor late for her to return.

She spotted Mike's car parked next to Hayden's car in the yard and glanced at her bodyguard.

Wilson pretended not to notice her gaze and looked away. Avery immediately concluded that her bodyguard had informed Mike and Hayden about what had happened.

Mike and Hayden heard the sound of a car engine going off from the yard and immediately stepped out of the living room.

"This is a decision Hayden and I made together after a discussion, so you don't get a say. Dean wants to kill you and you have to keep looking into the Jennings family, so you can't avoid contact with them altogether... One bodyguard is not enough to ensure your safety."

Avery went to her closet and took out a set of pajamas. "Alright, go out! I want to rest." She felt extremely exhausted, probably due to the blood loss.

"You can’t be thinking of skipping dinner, can you? The nanny made you soup. At least have some soup." Mike was worried that she would be hungry later.

"I will have it after shower." "Oh... Be careful not to get water on your wound when you shower." Mike simply did not feel assured. "Why don't I call the nanny here to help you?"

She sighed with resignation. "It’s really a small wound. I wouldn't be able to walk if it's that bad."

"Alright, then! Go ahead! I will put the soup into a bowl to let it cool down a bit," he said and left the room.
