His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 2578

She had thought that being one year older, she would be wiser and her life would begin to improve, but it had not worked out quite the way she had expected.

Irene had a strong feeling that Lucas would not forgive her this time. Though she meant every word she said to Sam, after regaining her composure, she realized that some parts of them sounded rather hurtful

Irrespective of whether Lucas was truly without talent and without the capacity to make ends meet, she should have never agreed to something like that, be it in front of Lucas or behind his back.

She tried to place herself in his shoes and knew that she would be just as upset if she found out that Lucas was mocking her looks behind her back with Kasey.

"Why did I say all those things to Mr. Sam?" she thought. "I didn't even want to discuss Mr. Lucas with him. Maybe I was provoked! Maybe it's because Mr. Lucas broke his promise of celebrating my birthday, or maybe it's because he stayed the night in Ms. Bennett's house…"

Meanwhile, in Aryadelle, it had been a month since Layla had started accepting applications from suitors, and she had received thousands of emails in her mailbox. After a professional team filtered most of the applications, they ended up presenting Layla with fifty-two candidates who met the requirements for age, academic achievements, and family backgrounds from all around the world.

Hayden was going to meet with all fifty-two of them for the next round of interviews.

At the same time, Layla had received information concerning the fifty-two candidates from her brother, while she was sitting in her office at Tate Industries.

She stared at the screen of her computer with a troubled expression. She called her assistant into her office to help her go through the information while she went to make herself a cup of coffee.

A while later, she received a call from Hayden.
