His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 1073

Avery felt that Hayden was deliberately refusing to negotiate with her.

The more she thought about it, the more restless she became. Eventually, she called Elliot because her sadness was too much to bear.

"Elliot, Hayden has decided to study abroad. He's leaving me."

Elliot's breathing became heavier. "Is there anything I can do?"

"No. Don’t do anything, because you can't," she felt choked. "He's made up his mind. Mike said he’d be leaving the day after tomorrow at the latest. He doesn’t want to be in this house anymore." "Let him go if that's what he wants," Elliot said helplessly. "Don't cry. Just don't treat him like he's a child.” "I can't help but treat him as a child, Elliot.

I always feel like I'm going to lose him."

"You won't. He's your son and you'll never lose him," Elliot comforted her patiently. " He just doesn't want to face me. He still loves you. You can always visit him frequently in the future."

Her mood calmed down gradually as she listened to his deep voice.

"Life seldom goes our way. We should always appreciate that Hayden is healthy and safe," he continued to comfort.

"Okay. I'll get up early tomorrow and talk to him. Even if he wants to leave, I don't want him to leave feeling sad."

"You should rest early."

"Okay. What are you doing?" she asked.

"Reading."

"What book?" What she would have given to lie beside him and hug him.

"It's about war."

"...Well, don't read until it's too late or you won't have any energy tomorrow."

"Okay. Good night, Avery."

After hanging up the phone, Avery stared at the dimly lit room in a trance.

Elliot's remark that life seldom went one's way was a phrase that she was well-acquainted with.
