His Eagle Eyes on Me
Chapter 2470

Nick sneered. "What do you think? You clearly know what time it is over here, yet you still called. How could you be so bold to ask such a thing?"

"I'm worried about Elliot," Avery said honestly. "Nick, have you seen Elliot yet?"

"Didn't you contact him?" Nick said. "He didn't come to see me. Didn't he tell you that?"

"No. He just said that he's quite tired, so I didn't ask much," Avery said. "Nick, can we talk?"

Nick's temples throbbed. His eyelids started to twitch as well.

"Aren't we talking right now?"

"I mean talk honestly," Avery said. "Just like back then, before I operated on you. Before the operation, I also asked you a lot of questions, and you answered me honestly." Nick's head started to hurt. Avery was clearly playing the friendship card.

"Avery, you don't have to remind me that you operated on me. We both called it even a long time ago. Have you forgotten?" Nick got down from the bed to look for some water.

"I know we're even, but I have to remind you there is a chance of your illness recurring. If you don't seek treatment from me that is fine as other doctors can operate on you, but the rate of failure might increase," said Avery calmly. "After the failed operation, there can only be two outcomes."

Nick knew that he was being threatened, but he was amused by her threats.

"Go on! I'm listening."

Avery swallowed and continued, "The first outcome is instant death, and the second outcome will require plenty of resuscitation, and your life will barely be saved. The operation will leave you a retard, or you will live as a vegetable."

Nick wanted to spit the water out of his mouth, but he forcefully swallowed.

"Why are you threatening me so late

at night? Avery, what are you trying to say? Can you get straight to the point? Just because you're feeling uneasy are you trying to make me feel uneasy too?" Nick placed the cup on the table and looked a little annoyed.

He was annoyed mainly because she had called him late at night. He had almost fallen asleep when she called him.

Not only had she disrupted his sleep, but she had also threatened him. His mood was completely ruined.

"Nick, does the destruction of the

Gould family have anything to do with you?" Avery asked. "If it has nothing to do with you, I'll apologize to you immediately."

"Don't apologize to me," Nick said without hesitation. "Whether this has anything to do with me or not, I..."

Nick's words got stuck in his throat. He did not know what to say. Was he going to directly admit to having a hand in the destruction of the Goulds?

If he admitted it, Edward and Ted would be furious.

"Nick? Why are you not talking? Does that incident have anything to do with you?" Avery's heart was in her throat. She felt as if the truth was about to emerge.

"Avery, why would you think that this has anything to do with me? Do I look like such a cruel monster to you?" Nick's face turned hot when he said that.

"Nick, I'm going to be honest with

you. I think you're the world's greatest person. When I saw Elliot as evil, you were my only hope amongst all his friends," said Avery. "You have helped me many times. You never thought I was being troublesome. Although it's because I have saved you in the past, and have also agreed to continue saving you in the future, you didn't care about appearances. You still stuck to your word. You're a chivalrous hero!"

Nick pursed his lips to stop himself from vomiting.

"Avery, it's late at night. Can you try not to disgust me?" Nick could not take it.
