His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 2825

"It's just a vase of water. You are overthinking things," Avery said cheerfully. "You might have moved in with Eric but you will always be my daughter!"

"Mom, I wasn't feeling sad about this and now that you've said that, I don't feel like leaving."

"Then stay," Elliot added.

Layla chuckled and walked over to Elliot. "Dad, are you going to get Robert to work for you during the holidays? You can just hand him over to your vice president, so you won't have to worry."

"I'm worried that the vice president would go soft on him. I never asked Robert to intern at my company. He was the one who brought it up."

Layla immediately turned to look at Robert in awe, not expecting him to become such a responsible man.

"Why are you staring at me, Layla? You were the one who said that you want me to help Dad with work, right?" Robert felt chills down his spine when he saw the way Layla was looking at him.

"That's great! If you've decided to do it, make sure to give it your best," Layla said.

"I know. I've prepared myself."

Layla turned her attention back to Elliot. "Dad, what position will you give him?"

Robert was curious as well and stared at Elliot. He thought that Elliot might make him his assistant so that he could learn how to run the business.

"He will work his way up from the bottom," Elliot said.

"As a sales? Or a janitor?" Layla teased.

Robert was instantly rendered speechless.

Avery was confused. "I thought that everyone in your office knows Robert?"

Avery fell silent as she knew that Elliot was right; they could spoil their daughters and must ensure that their sons were prepared for hardship.

Ivy had suffered for years and turned out brilliantly with far superior survival instincts compared to Robert.

Robert was not entirely worried about hardship, but he was slightly confused. "If you intend for me to work my way up, why did you show me the data of your largest competitor this afternoon?"

He had thought that Elliot wanted his help to counter his competitor.

"There’s no harm in filling you in on our situation ahead of time," Elliot said casually. "Naturally, you will never inherit my firm if you can't even handle a sales position."

Robert stared at his father silently.

"Alright, let's not talk about that for now. Let's eat!" Avery was worried that Elliot was pressuring Robert and did not want Robert to be overly stressed, so she swiftly changed the subject.
