His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 1899

"I ordered takeaway. It should arrive soon." He glanced at the screen on his phone.

Concerned that they wouldn't make it in time, she said, "Let's take it to the airport and eat it there!"

"We don't have to rush. We can always change our tickets."

"You will do no such thing unless the flight is canceled." She could not wait to go to Ylore. "Elliot, I need closure. Whether Ivy is alive or dead, I need to know."

"I feel the same."

Shortly after, the food they ordered arrived.

The bodyguard carried their trunks into the car and the two followed closely behind. The atmosphere was awfully awkward as they sat in the cramped space of the back seat.

"You are not taking your bodyguard?" she asked.

"My bodyguard is already at the airport."

"Oh. I thought you weren't bringing him along!"

"I can leave him behind if you don't want me to bring him along."

"Why do you always have to read too much into my words? I was just mentioning it casually and you are reading far too much out of it," Avery said sarcastically.

Elliot immediately quieted down.

"You went to have lunch with Ben's parents?" Remembering the photo of Lilith’s ring, she asked, "How did things go?

"More precisely, I was only there for lunch. " Elliot narrowed his eyes and responded lazily, "Their affairs are entirely up to them. Lilith isn't a child and she doesn't need me looking over her."

"You are still her brother."

"I don't want others to look down on her." Elliot blushed ever so slightly. He had not intended on talking to Lilith or talking about it at all, but he did not want Avery to misunderst?c+=RMV= him.

"I wouldn't say anything, whether or not you give Lilith money. You don't have to act so nervous." She began feeling uncomfortable as well when she saw the blush on his face. "Besides, Lilith probably won't accept your money, since her income isn't bad right now."

"Her income has nothing to do with me. She is my sister and I'm just doing what I should. How her life turns out in the future depends on her, and her alone."

"Yeah."

Once they arrived at the airport, the bodyguard took their luggage to get it checked in while Elliot and Avery had their dinner in the VIP waiting lounge.

"I thought you ate a lot at noon? I would have thought that you won’t be able to have dinner. Has your appetite grown that much?" Avery teased.

"I was eating, but I couldn’t even taste the food, so I've developed an appetite now," He stared into her eyes steadily. "Is it really going to be alright when your boyfriend finds out that we are going to Ylore together?"

"Are you scared that he will come and beat you up?" she asked. "If so, you may choose to stay further away from me."
