His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 1436

She wanted to head to the airport right away and get on the first flight leaving for Ylore, but she stopped herself from acting on such thoughts.

She had to talk to her daughter first, or Layla would be devastated.

The past Avery would have dropped everything and run to Ylore, but she could not do that anymore.

All the things she had gone through these past few months had made her realize that she could not act on feelings. She could not neglect others and the same applied to her children and Elliot.

The next morning, Avery got up early and went to wake Layla up.

"Layla, your dad is hurt so I need to see him, " she said while sitting by the bed. "This time, I'm going to bring him back."

Layla blinked dazedly, unable to react. "Oh...

"My plane leaves later, so I will be leaving for the airport once I see you to school,” said Avery. "Uncle Mike will stay here once I leave. You can tell him or Uncle Eric if anything happens—"

"What?! Mommy, you are leaving?" said Layla, completely awake.

"Yes. Your dad is hurt."

"Why is he hurt? Is it bad?" Layla asked worriedly.

"I don't know yet. I guess I'll find out once I'm there." Avery took out some of Layla's clothes and said, "Don't worry, the bad guy is dead so I won't be in any danger." "Gary Gould is dead?!" Layla exclaimed.

"Yeah! Who told you that name?"

"Uncle Mike did." Layla's mood lightened in an instant. "That bad guy is finally dead! Does it mean that I can go to Ylore as well, Mommy?"

"Haha, you need to go to school, darling!" Avery helped Layla out of her pajamas and helped her into her dress. "There is nothing fun there. Once I am there, I will bring your dad back and we will never step foot in that place ever again."

"Mm-hm! Remember to video call me every day, though!"

"Of course. I miss you and your brother."
