His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 2009

"He's a top-ranked hacker. If he doesn't want his photos to be on the internet, we won't be able to find any." Dean took her hand and walked toward the dining room." Let's have breakfast!"

"I don't have much of an appetite... But I can eat with you!" Though still annoyed with Avery, Angela regained her composure at the reminder that she had leverage over Avery.

Avery stepped out of the Jennings' mansion and got into her car.

"Where to, Miss Tate?" her bodyguard asked.

She was not sure where to go as she had too much on her mind. "Wherever!" "Oh... Why don’t we go to the Dream Maker factory, then?" The bodyguard was extremely interested in the Dream Maker factory and was dying for Avery to give him a tour.

She was not paying attention to what the bodyguard was saying and did not respond.

Taking her silence as a yes, he started driving towards Dream Maker.

Avery took out her phone and found Professor Hough's son's contact. Worried that she might disturb him if she called out of the blue, she sent a message asking for Profession Hough's wife's number instead.

When Professor Hough's son saw her message, he forwarded his mother's contact to Avery right away without asking any questions.

Avery thanked him in a message and made the call.

Someone answered right away. "Avery, are you looking for me?"

"Mrs. Hough, I hope I'm not interrupting anything."

"Of course, not! I've retired so I'm free every day. It's a shame that I'm not in Bridgedale now or I would have invited you over."

"I will be sure to pay you a visit when I have the chance, Mrs. Hough," Avery promised. "I'm calling you today because I met with Angela today and she told me that Professor Hough had failed her. I don't believe that...”

"Angela? How did you come across that woman?" "Angela is now dating the president of MediLove Pharmaceutical, Dean Jennings, and I've been looking into the Jennings family so I met with her earlier today," Avery explained. "Mrs. Hough, what Angela said has to be a lie, right? You TJP: Professor Hough had such a loving relationship—"

"She was telling the truth," Mrs. Hough interrupted her. "James and I got married because our parents told us to."

The frustrated expression on Angela's face from earlier immediately popped into Avery's mind.

"James was an obedient son and chose to marry me, but by doing so, he had indeed failed Angela, so he didn’t know how to face her," Mrs. Hough continued, "For years after I married him, Angela would keep calling to insult me and I found it horribly disturbing. She is a horrifying woman.

Avery, it's best to stay out of her way."
