His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 396

Elliot thought that Avery had gone to the washroom and then to her room. When he realized that she had gone upstairs, he stopped drinking.

A thought suddenly flashed through his mind. Would Avery have... run away?!

The villa was encircled by the forest that was a hundred kilometers in radius.

How was she going to leave the forest when she was this weak?

He clenched his fists tightly, turned around, and prepared to head downstairs.

"Mr. Foster! I'll go check the surveillance footage right away! I'll see when she left!” When the bodyguard realized that Avery was gone, he immediately said, "It's dark at night, and there are no street lights too. I'm sure she did not go far!" "A bunch of idiots! You can't even guard a woman properly!" Elliot snarled through gritted teeth!

"I'm sorry! I'll get people to look for her right now! I promise we’ll bring her back by dawn!" The bodyguard swore with fear on his face.

Elliot instantly sobered up! His mind was extremely clear at that moment. He even had a strong premonition!

"She must have left before midnight! I realized she was gone after I returned from the washroom before midnight! She must have left then!" After his deduction, he said, "Go and check the surveillance footage! Someone must have helped her! If not, she couldn't have left this building on her own!"

The bodyguard said, "I thought so too, but I did not dare to say anything."

The people in attendance were Elliot's closest friends. Elliot had known them before he got rich. Although later they did not interact much, they remained in contact.

On the ground floor, some were still drinking.

Elliot's gaze locked onto someone. Before Avery had vanished, she had been sitting next to him. Earlier on, he had thought nothing of it. He just thought that she had found a place to sit and left it at that.

However, now that she was gone, it proved that her choice in seating partner was planned.

In other words, she might know that person.

"Nick, did you help Avery escape?" Elliot walked over to Nick and took the wine glass away from him.

Nick looked up with in indecipherable expression. He said honestly, “Yes."

The others looked at him.
