His Eagle Eyes on Me

Chapter 1856

Avery returned hand called Layla to let her know that she got hsafely. She then headed to the bathroom to run hot water

for a bath.

She had been tense the entire day while she was in Elliot's house, and she felt like he was monitoring her every move.

She set her phone down on the nightstand and went over to the closet to get her pajamas while replaying all the events of the

past.

It was a pleasant day.

After spending the day with Layla and Robert, she finally felt that she was making up for the lost past two years. Her mind

wandered to the scene where Robert called her '"Mommy' and asked her to stay the night in Elliot's mansion.

She was tempted to agree, longing to sleep with her children and chat with them. Every second spent in her children’s presence

brought her great joy that oozed from deep within her.

Apart from the fact that they had not heard anything about Ivy, everything seemed to be running smoothly.

Avery wondered if this was what people meant when they said, "It's always darkest before dawn."

Meanwhile, the bodyguard sent Ben and Lilith back to Ben's house.

Ben had quite a few drinks, but he had a rather strong tolerance. Despite how much he drank, he was not overly drunk.

However, he reached out to grab Lilith by the arm as he got out of the car and pretended like he could not walk.

"Lilith, my... my head feels so dizzy..." Ben cast the bodyguard a look once Lilith pulled him out of the car.

The bodyguard took the hint and immediately took his leave.

"lI want to puke..." Ben mumbled as Lilith helped him inside the house and then into the bathroom.

"lI am thirsty, Lilith... Can you poura glass of water?" Ben was not actually going to vomit, so he stood by the bathroom door

and asked weakly.

Lilith studied his flushed face and did not have a doubt that he was actually drunk." You are earning quite a lot so why don't you

hire a nanny or a bodyguard?" She let go of him and went to pour a glass of water. "You might not want to hear this, but no one will

Ben stepped inside the bathroom and turned on the tap to wash his face.

"Lilith, thank you for caring so much for me. | didn't hire a nanny or bodyguard before because | prefer to be alone and didn't like

having another person in my house, but | intend on listening to your advice to hire a nanny and a bodyguard," he said while

coming out of the bathroom.

"You don’t have to if you prefer to be alone.” Lilith handed him the glass. "You can wait until you are sixty."

Ben accepted the glass and downed it. "I don't like being alone as much and seem to grow more and more fond of the crowd.

Maybe I'm really growing old!"

He handed her the empty glass and she accepted it while studying the dazed look on his face. "Can you stop staring at me? | know

you wantto stay and be your nanny for free..."
