His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 372

When he saw how cheerful she was in the photo, his heart ached at the realization that it had been so long since she had last smiled at him. It was almost five years ago.

In the wedding dress shop, Avery had taken the wedding dress off and picked out a light purple dress to wear to Tammy's wedding.

"I will be thirty in a few years, and I won't get to wear dresses like this by then," she said. "I should buy a few more like this one while I can still pretend to be young."

"Avery, with your face, people would believe you even if you say you are twenty. It's not like you will grow old overnight when you are thirty, so relax and be young all you want!" "That sweet tongue of yours! No wonder you have Jun wrapped around your fingers, " Avery said with a smile.

"He is the one who benefited from me choosing him, okay?" After trying on the dresses she had ordered, Tammy said with satisfaction, "All that's left right now is to wait for the wedding! Oh, isn't the kids' birthday soon? How do you plan on spending it?"

"At home."

"Huh?! There won't be a party? Or are you throwing a small party at home?" Tammy had already picked out gifts for her godchildren and had been waiting for an invitation from Avery.

Avery shook her head. "I thought about it and decided not to celebrate their birthdays."

She had decided against it out of fear of drawing Elliot's attention. She had lied to Elliot about the children. She had told him that Hayden was adopted, and Layla was a test-tube baby. If Elliot ever found out that the children shared a birthday, he would surely suspect something.

"You are doing it because of Elliot, right? That guy really doesn't know when to call the quits!" Tammy frowned. "But can you really keep this a secret for the rest of your life? Don't worry, I definitely won’t tell Jun. I'm just worried that Elliot might get suspicious someday and start looking into it."

Avery's head hurt at the thought of anything related to Elliot. She wanted to stay away from him, but the more she tried, the messier their relationship had become. It was almost as though fate was taunting her.

"I will keep it a secret for as long as I can! Both the kids hate him and do not want to acknowledge him as their father."

"I wouldn't like him either if I was Hayden or Layla. He is extremely arrogant and selfcentered, so he doesn't even know how to respect others," Tammy said as she held Avery’s arm and led her out of the shop. " Let's go eat something good! My treat!"
