His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 329

"Can't the bodyguard and nanny watch her? It’s been so long since we’ve had a drink!" Ben said, then whispered in Elliot's ear, "Avery went abroad today."

Elliot’s eyes turned dark.

He suddenly had the urge to drink.

Ben booked a spot at a rooftop restaurant.

The two men stood by the railings with a bottle of wine in hand each and looked out into the starry night sky as they drank in silence.

The spring breeze was cool and stuck to every inch of their skin.

When they were done with their first bottles, Ben turned to Elliot and asked, "Did you agree to the engagement with Zoe as

thanks for Shea's treatment?"

"My mother wanted me to marry her.

Avery also told me to live a good life with her. Shea's treatment is just a minor reason."

Elliot lifted his head slightly, revealing his long, sensual neck.

His Adam's apple rolled in his throat, then he said hoarsely, "Avery wanted nothing but to draw a line between us, so I'm simply granting her wish."

Avery should be happy now that he was engaged to Zoe!

"What's with that expression? It’s just an engagement, not marriage. Even if you get married, you can always get a divorce!" Ben said as he patted Elliot’s shoulder when he saw the pained expression on his face. " Come on. Let's have another drink." A week later, Shea suddenly appeared at the door to Hayden and Layla's classroom at Starry River Kindergarten.

This time, there was no smile on her face.

She always had a silly grin on her face every time they met before.

Hayden and Layla walked out of the classroom.

"I'm here to see you one last time, Hayden and Layla..." Shea said as tears glistened in her eyes.

"Why is it the last time? Dirt... I mean, is Elliot Foster stopping you from seeing us again?" Layla said, catching herself before she slipped her tongue.

Shea shook her head as tears streamed down her face.
