His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 2674

"Mom! I can hire a cleaner for that! You don't have to do it." Layla dragged Avery back to the couch. "Have you two eaten? We can eat together if you haven't!"

"We've already eaten." Avery finally noticed that Layla seemed to have lost weight. "Layla, have you gotten thinner? Why do you look so weak?"

Elliot turned to study Layla's face and immediately started to worry as well. "Have you been eating properly? How are you sleeping?" He asked.

Panicking, Layla felt extremely guilty when she saw the worried looks on her parents' faces.

"I... I'm just on my period and... I don't have much of an appetite." She hesitated for a few moments and decided to downplay the situation as she had mostly recovered.

"Why don't you come home for a few days? You can't cook for yourself in this state? You can just order delivery!" Avery said as she helped Layla out of the apron.

Layla had never set foot into the kitchen, and Avery's heart ached at the thought that Layla had to cook for herself despite feeling ill after moving out.

"Mom, I'm just on my period. I'm not sick! I might look weak, but I'm perfectly fine!" To prove her words, Layla stood from the couch. "Look! I'm fine!"

"You just won't come home, right?" Avery knew that Layla was stubborn and decided against forcing her.

"I just want to stay in bed for the next few days. I don't feel like moving at all." Layla pouted. "I will get better soon. I'll gain some weight once my appetite returns."

"Fine. Come and eat!" Avery took the food out of the thermal bag and the scent immediately filled Layla's nose.
