His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 518

Elliot lowered his eyes to gaze at Layla's adorable, puffed-up cheeks, then corrected her, "How could you call me by my full name like that? That's not very polite."

Layla let out a huff, then said, "It's because you're a bad man."

"Did your mother say that?" Elliot asked with a calm face.

He was not upset. Layla was just a child. What did she know?

She only knew things that adults told her about.

"No way! Mommy wouldn't say bad things behind someone's back!" At this point, Layla was worried about snitching on her brother, so she cleverly changed the subject and asked, "What are you making?"

"Sweet barbecue ribs," Elliot replied as he showed the marinated ribs to her. "It's your mother’s favorite. What do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."

Layla answered without hesitation, "I want chocolate! I also want meat! Could you hide some chocolate in the meat for me?

Whatever you do, don't let Mommy find out!

Elliot thought about it, then said, "I can do that for you, but can you tell me what your brother's favorite dish is? "

Layla’s sparkling eyes rolled in their sockets as she said, "Hayden likes vegetables, but he definitely won't eat it if you made it. You're the person he hates the most!"

Elliot had a feeling that he had to slowly make up for his past mistake.

Once Layla left the kitchen, Chad sighed and said, "There’s no need for you to stoop this low, Sir."

With Elliot washing Avery's feet and cooking for her, Chad wondered if this was still the same boss he knew.

If washing her feet was considered an act of passion between lovers, then what about cooking a meal?

"Aren’t you doing the same by cooking for Mike?" Elliot teased in a deep voice.

"That's different. I like cooking," Chad said.

"I like cooking for Avery," Elliot responded.

Chad was left speechless.

Elliot had won.

When lunch was served, Avery tried the

sweet barbecue ribs that Elliot made for her. He had added too much sugar, so it was very sweet.

"It's a little too sweet," she said softly to Elliot, giving him her opinion.

Elliot tested a piece himself, XMV? found that it was, in fact, too sweet.
