His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 277

"Since you are my stepmother, I will give you a day," Avery said coldly and stepped out of the cafe.

Back at the event hall, both Elliot and Wesley were looking rather drunk after only having a few glasses to drink.

"Mr. Brook, I heard that Professor Hough had a secret student," asked Elliot casually as he poured Wesley another glass. 1

Wesley looked at him and flushed. "Where did you hear that, Mr. Foster?"

Elliot lifted his glass and touched Wesley's. "You only need to tell me yes or no, Mr. Brook."

Wesley took a sip and responded in a troubled tone.' I'm sorry, but I cannot disclose any personal information regarding Professor Hough."

"Professor Hough has passed away. Besides, it's not like it's something to be ashamed of."

"What if that person doesn't wish to be found?"

Elliot beamed and said, "So, Professor Hough did have a secret student."

The person Wesley was referring to had to be the mysterious student.

Wesley picked up his glass and took another sip.

"Mr, Brook, you are that secret student of Professor Hough, aren't you?" Elliot finally revealed his theory.

Wesley immediately spat out the wine in his mouth, and Elliot passed him the tissue box.

"Thank you." Wesley wiped his mouth with the tissue, before explaining with a blush on his face, "Mr. Foster, I was just Professor Hough's assistant. I studied medicine as well, but I am nowhere near worthy of being his student. That's the whole reason why I was his assistant to begin with."

"Really?" Elliot looked into his eyes as he tried to determine whether Wesley was telling the truth.

"Of course! Oh, right, haven't you already found Zoe?" Wesley changed the subject and said, "She is brilliant."

"That, she is, but I want more options," Elliot said in a low voice, "I heard that Professor Hough's secret student is a middle aged man, and I've sent people to find him. It's been two months since then, and I haven't even found a clue."
