His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 2247

"Hayden, I have to admit that you are better than me." Using milk as a replacement for wine, Elliot clinked his glass against Hayden’s.

Avery knew that Hayden was weak to compliments. If Elliot were to act submissive and shower Hayden with compliments, Hayden would not be able to react defensively.

"You are you, and I am me. We don't have to compete with one another." Hayden used to be fixated on who was the better out of the two of them, but now that he had his own dreams and goals, he no longer cared.

"You are right, Hayden. It doesn't matter who is better. I'm proud of the two of you," Avery said and reached for her glass of milk when her phone started to ring.

It was a call from Mike, and she could already guess what he wanted to say.

Being bullied by Chad and Ben on social media, he was definitely calling Avery to have her side with him.

Avery took a sip of milk and answered the call.

"Avery, did Hayden and Elliot make peace?" Mike asked in disbelief.

"Yeah. Do you want to see it for yourself?"

"Do you think I would doubt your words? It's good that they have made peace! You won't have to worry about it anymore," Mike said.

"Why do you sound a little upset?" Avery teased.

"Why would I be upset? Do I look like the kind of man who would be jealous when I see a family living in peace?" he said bitterly. "Fine, I confess. I am a little upset. I knew for sure that I was Hayden's favorite, but now that he has made peace with Elliot, I think it won't be long till Elliot replaces me."

"How could you think like that, Mike? No one can ever take your place in Hayden's heart, just like how Elliot will never be able to replace the place you have in mine," said Avery, reassuring him.
