His Eagle Eyes on Me
Chapter 2465

"You guys have been to Ylore many times because of Ivy, right? You guys can't investigate this, could it be because the murderer has the power to cover it up?" Mike speculated. "If this were to happen in Aryadelle, the truth would have long been out."

"Ylore is indeed much more complicated than Aryadelle. Without proof, it's hard to say who the murderer is. It could be anyone." When Avery said that, she could not help but shudder. "He insists on going. I can only let him go."

"Don't worry. Doesn't he know people in Ylore? As long as he doesn't go up against the powerful people there, they would not hurt him too. No one would do anything without benefits."

Mike's consolation made Avery nod. "You're right. He would surely know to act properly."

"Then, don't pull such a long face. The children would worry if they see you like that."

"Hmm."

At ten at night, the annual dinner ended. Avery and the children were in the car on the way back home.

Usually, at that time, Robert would already be in bed. She initially did not want to take Robert along to the annual dinner. After all, it was too noisy, but Robert insisted on coming. Avery could not convince him otherwise, so she brought him along.

"Mommy! I'm so happy tonight!" Robert was hugging a few soft toys that people had given him.

"I can see you're happy, but it's late. Once we return home, you have to shower and go to bed."

"Mommy, I want to sleep with you tonight!" Robert said coquettishly.

"Sure!" Avery agreed.

"Mommy, I want to sleep with you, too!" Layla said without thought. She asked, "When is Daddy coming home? Will he be home by New Year's?"

"I don't know yet! But irrespective of

whether he will return in time or not,

I will spend New Year's with you,"

said Avery with a smile. "Don't worry about Daddy! He will be fine!"

"Why did he have to go somewhere so far away for nothing?" Layla grumbled. "He didn't even say goodbye to me before leaving."

"Don't be

angry. He decided to go at the last minute. Something has happened to a friend of his over there. He headed there to have a look." Avery came up with an excuse. "Hayden is back with us, right? We'll happily celebrate New Year's and Daddy will be home once he is done over there."

Once Elliot reached Ylore, he immediately headed to the Sutton family.

Juliet's body had been cremated. The Sutton family resumed their daily routine as if nothing had happened.

"Mrs. Sutton, I would like to talk to you alone," said Elliot to Mrs. Sutton after meeting Walter and his wife.

"Uh... Mr. Foster, my husband is the head of the family. If you have anything to say, you can talk to him." Mrs. Sutton refused to talk to Elliot alone.

"Since I have asked to speak to you

alone, it must surely be because I have something valuable to give you," Elliot said. "Your late daughter was my wife's assistant. We have something she left behind. Don't you want to see it?"

When Mrs. Sutton heard that, she could no longer maintain her calm facade.

"Mr. Foster, can't I see what my daughter left behind?" Walter asked.

"The item is with me. I'll show it to whoever I want to show it to. If you want to see, you can get your wife to show it to you later," Elliot said coldly and harshly. Walter was the head of the family, yet he had pushed his daughter to her death. Elliot could not be bothered to speak to an inhumane monster like him.

"Mr. Foster, come with me." After a moment's hesitation, Mrs. Sutton got up from the sofa and led Elliot to the room by the side. She would talk to him alone.
