His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 2660

Eric stilled at the question.

"Did something happen?"

Eric had not cut ties with them on purpose, but ever since Layla had asked him out, he had gotten the feeling that neither Elliot nor Avery wanted to see him. So, he took it upon himself to stay out of their sight.

"Yeah! Something big happened," Layla said. "You should ask Mom!"

"I won't pry if your mom didn't tell me about it."

"And that's why I'm saying that you didn't keep in touch. Is it because of your girlfriend? It's like you don't care about what happens to us anymore."

Eric was rendered speechless.

"Wait, it was probably inappropriate for me to ask you to come here, isn't it? Is your girlfriend living with you?" Layla came to a sudden realization. "Why don't you give me the IV bag and go home?"

"She doesn't stay with me." Eric refused to move. "It's late. Just go to sleep and stop overthinking things."

"What about you?"

"I will wait until the IV bag is empty."

"What then? If I fall asleep, are you just going to walk out?" Layla asked.

Eric considered her question. He wondered if she would vomit again in the middle of the night and wanted to stay to care for her, but he was also worried that it might not be appropriate for him to do so.

They had not spoken to one another since they had last time met. Layla mentioned that something had happened, but Avery had not said anything. Though he desperately wanted to know what happened, he was too shy to ask Avery.

He scrolled through Avery's social media account to check if he had missed something, but the last post was during New Year's. He then pulled up his browser and keyed in Avery's name.

A few news articles popped up, but they were all gossip rags and scandals.

Some asked what Avery had done to land Elliot. To most people, Elliot was out of Avery's league, but Eric did not think so.

Avery and Elliot were made for one another in every way possible, and after observing the pair for years, Eric concluded that they were the perfect match for one another.

Some time passed and the doctor returned with the IV stand. He was just in time to replace the IV bag.
