His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 1630

"Avery was upset with me giving the child the Foster name. I guess she won't see me as a friend anymore.” Ben was reminded of the angry look on Avery's face.

Elliot could not respond to Ben's words. When he walked out of Ben's room, he felt like his entire body was on fire. Everything he had done so far seemed wrong. The pain never ceased, and the same thing would happen over and over again in the future.

"Elliot! What are you doing, standing here?" Mike walked out of the washroom and was confused by Elliot’s dazed look. "Are you sad that Shea is getting married? No way! Are you that sentimental?"

Elliot shoved Mike's hand off his shoulder." Avery looked off and told me that she had a stomachache. She was lying to me. If I tell you that I'm sad because Shea is getting married, I'd be lying to you as well."

The casual look on Mike's face was replaced by a serious look. "What is going on with the two of you? Today is Shea and Wesley’s big day, can't you two keep it together? Aren’t you afraid of jinxing Shea's wedding, destroying her happiness for the rest of her life?"

Elliot frowned. "What are you talking about? No matter what happens between me and Avery, Shea will be happy!"

Mike realized what he had said and immediately covered his mouth. "I just made that up! I was just trying to cheer you up. Where is Avery? She was fine during lunch-" "She was faking it." Elliot did not consider Mike an outsider and said, "She is getting better and better at acting." "Well, she is getting better at acting because she is afraid of ruining everyone's mood, unlike you who doesn't even bother pretending," Mike mocked. "Go on, what's going on between you two?"

"We are fine." Elliot walked to the bar to grab a glass of champagne. "If anything is wrong between us, there could only be one thing."

He did not specify what was wrong but Mike understood right away.

"Ruby Gould is here? Did she reach out to Avery?" Mike, too, grabbed a glass of champagne and swirled it gently.

"Ruby didn't come to me or Avery. She went straight to Ben." Elliot took a sip >c'; PKU> continued in a low voice, "She has given birth."

"Oh." Mike's expression darkened as his tone grew cold. "Judging from your tone and the look on your face, you kind of want that child, don't you?"
