When His Eyes Opened novel by Simple Silence
Chapter 226

Chapter 226

After struggling for a while, Avery did not open her eyes in the end.

She could make out Elliot's voice, but who was the woman talking to him?

It was an unfamiliar voice... Calling him "Big Brother",

Was Elliot flirting with that woman?

Ha!

She was fast asleep, and he was flirting with another woman by her bed.

How shameless!

If she could wake up right now, she would definitely kick the two of them out of the room!

Half asleep, Avery was so angry that her heart ached.

Just like that, she fell asleep again.

Elliot took Shea's hand and took her back to rest.

Once Shea was asleep, Elliot returned to his room.

Avery turned in bed, still deep in her slumber.

Elliot walked into the bathroom and took a shwoer.

When Zoe heard that Elliot brought Avery home to spend the night, her eyes reddened with rage.

Who exactly was his girlfriend now?

She knew that the only reason Elliot agreed to date her was so that she would treat Shea's

illness.

Even so, he still should have maintained outward appearances!

What did he mean by taking Avery home for the night?

Was he publicly cheating on her?

The humiliation Zoe felt from accidentally sleeping with Cole before vanished.

She could not help but think that Elliot would not bat an eyelid if he found out that she slept with Cole.

She opened up a bottle of wine and took it back to her room.

Wesley arrived at the Foster mansion first thing the next morning to check on Avery's condition.

Elliot was dressed in casual loungewear, and he frowned when he saw Wesley.

"Avery's mother asked me to stop by, Mr. Foster. She's worried that Avery hasn't been home," Wesley explained.

He knew that it was rude to show up at someone's house this early in the morning, but he could not refuse Laura's request.

Elliot led Wesley to the bedroom.

Wesley was concerned about Avery's safety.

However, after seeing how she practically took over the entire bed with no space for Elliot to join her, he was relieved.

"Excuse my intrusion, Mr. Foster," Wesley said, then walked out of the room.

Elliot returned to the guest bedroom to continue resting.

It was only seven in the morning!

He did not fall asleep until two in the morning, so he was especially cranky.

When Wesley walked out of the Foster mansion, he gave Laura a call.

"Avery's still fast asleep. Elliot Foster is sleeping in another room," he said. "Don't worry. She's safe. She'll definitely go home after she wakes up." Laura let out a sigh of relief, then said, "Thank you, Wesley. I wouldn't know how to head over there with the kids."

"I'll come see her again if she's not home by noon," Wesley said.

"Alright. Thank you so much!"

"Don't mention it. I'm partly responsible for Avery's condition," Wesley said regretfully. "She wouldn't be this tired if I didn't ask her to pick up a new case."

"Don't say that. Avery wouldn't have grown up so quickly if it weren't for Professor Hough. Saving lives is her duty. It might be a little hard on her, but you're not to blame." Laura felt much better after the phone call. "I'm going to get some groceries, Hayden. Stay at home with your sister, alright?" Laura said to Hayden. Hayden nodded in response.

The children sprung into action the moment Laura walked out the door.

Layla picked up her backpack while Hayden retrieved his laptop from Avery's room.

"We should tell Grandma, Hayden! Otherwise she'll be really worried," Layla said as she held onto Hayden's sleeve and blinked her wide eyes.
