His Eagle Eyes on Me

Chapter 2742

The bag in Avery's hand fell onto the ground.

Hayden's voice grew even louder than before. "Is Layla there?! Layla should be with him!"

The rescue team carefully moved Eric out of the way and found Layla further inside.

"We found her! Mr. Tate, we found your sister!" One of the members of the rescue team shouted excitedly and stretched his arm

out to see if Layla was breathing.

The temperature on the mountain was below zero, and though Layla's cheeks were cold, her neck remained warm, but since the

rescuer's hand was trembling, he could not tell with certainty if Layla was breathing.

Even if she was breathing, her breath was extremely weak.

"Mr. Tate... | am not sure if she's still alive!"

"Get them down first!" Hayden shouted, desperately wishing that he could climb up the mountain himself, but he could not.

He did not love outdoor activities and was never good at them, so he simply grabbed a pair of binoculars from his assistant to

monitor the situation. After a few moments, Elliot took the binoculars to have a look before passing them to Avery.

"Our daughter is alive... Avery, she has to be alive..." Elliot sounded both nervous and hopeful.

Avery was far more devastatedpared to Elliot because the rescue team had reported back that Eric was not breathing, which

meant that he could be dead.

She could bear the thought of either her daughter or Eric dying.

"If they went up together, why can't they just survive this together?" she thought to herself. "How am | supposed to face Eric's

parents? How am | supposed to face my own conscience? Eric had given up so much looking after my children and | throughout the

years. He had long repaid his debt to me. He didn't oweor anyone else anything, yet he died just like this..."

The helicopter cto rush Eric and Layla to the hospital, and once the helicopter took off, Hayden immediately drove the rest of

his family to the hospital.

"I willpensate his parents," Elliot said to Avery, knowing why she was in such misery. "I will fulfill whatever request they might

have."

Tears filled Avery's eyes. "You've met his parents before, and you should know that they are kindhearted people. What requests do

you think they are going to make?"

Elliot was speechless.

If Eric was indeed dead, he would leave behind enough money to ensure that his parents live the rest of their livesfortably.

"Avery, the avalanche is a natural disaster." Elliot attempted to console her.

"Had Layla not called him here, would Eric be here?" Avery retorted.

"He could have turned Layla down. He hadn't and he had followed her here. Layla isn't to blame." Elliot scowled. "Layla didn't know

that there would be an avalanche either. Had she known, she would have never placed herself and someone else in such danger."

"I'm not trying to blLayla. I'm just struggling! Eric shouldn't die!" Avery raised her voice.

The three children did not dare to interfere in their parents' argument, as it was beyond their capabilities to do so.

Indeed, Eric should not have died, but Layla was not to be blamed for the accident either.

By the tthe car arrived at the hospital, both Layla and Eric had already been rushed into the emergency room, so they waited

anxiously outside the room.

"Uncle Eric has to be alive, right?" Ivy whispered. "If he is dead, they wouldn't bother taking him into the emergency room."
