His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 1530

There were over three hundred photos, including ones when Avery was pregnant and the photos of the children when they were born.

Elliot had never seen any of these photos, so he started with the earliest photo of Avery and Laura when they were in the waiting area in a hospital. In the photo, Avery had one hand on her pregnant belly as she smiled gently, while Laura, too, was smiling endearingly.

Tears welled up in Elliot’s eyes.

Whenever he tried to imagine the time when Avery was pregnant with Layla and Hayden, guilt would overwhelm him at the realization that he had failed to care for them. Having twins was much more difficult than having a single baby. Avery was not financially stable and had to keep up with her studies at the time, so he could not begin to imagine how hard she had struggled.

He continued to explore and saw photos of the scenery in her school, and photos she had taken with her classmates and with Professor Hough. He scrolled to the left when suddenly a black and white ultrasound image came into sight.

He zoomed into the photo and distinctly saw that there were two babies.

It was an ordinary ultrasound image, so he could not see their faces. He then proceeded to read through the comments below the image. There were a lot of medical terms that he could not understand but based on the results, both fetuses were developing normally.

Though he already knew that his children had been born normally, he still sighed a breath of relief.

If Avery had saved the black and white image, then surely, she would have saved the colored ones as well.

Elliot scrolled through the album swiftly, and as expected, Avery did save the colored version of the ultrasound image.

He glanced through the two images and immediately recognized the one that belonged to Layla.

He downloaded the photo to his phone and found the one he received from Ruby.

When he compared the two, his blood ran cold at the fact that his daughter with Ruby looked exactly like Layla.

Without comparing it to Layla, he had only thought that the two looked slightly similar, but when he compared the ultrasound images, he realized that the two were exact replicas of one another.

Completely losing the urge to sleep :d!;YLP: the interest in looking at the photos, he held onto the phone, desperately wanting to call Ruby to ask how this was possible. However, he soon regained his composure and suppressed the urge.

There was no way Ruby would have known anything about this. If he contacted her now, she would only cling to him even harder.

His mind sank into chaos. The baby that resembled Layla was like a hook that hooked onto his heart. His senses told him not to be curious about it or to get involved with anything related to Ruby because he would only lose the peace he had finally found, but the existence of the child was driving him mad.

In the morning, the sky began to turn a bright white. Avery woke up and stretched, before getting out of bed to head to the bathroom.

After washing her face, she returned to the bed to pick up the phone. She had meant to check the time but was distracted by Elliot’s message.
