When His Eyes Opened by Simple Silence Chapter 1197
Mrs. Cooper reassured, “It’s only six o’clock in the morning on your mother’s side. Call her in another hour. Your mother is going out to work, and she will come back when her work is over.”
“If my mother don’t come back, what should I do with my brother?” Layla was suddenly frustrated.
At this moment, Robert suddenly burst into tears.
Mrs. Cooper quickly picked Robert up and checked why he was crying.
Outside the courtyard, a car stopped.
Layla saw it and went outside immediately. She saw Mike getting out of the car and striding forward.
“Uncle Mike!” Layla cried and ran over.
Mike frowned, walked a few steps to Layla, and picked her up: “Don’t cry baby. What’s the matter?”
“I miss Mom and Dad.” Layla stretched her hands and rubbed her eyes.
“Isn’t your father at home?” Mike came over last night and saw Elliot. But Mike couldn’t say much to him, so the two didn’t speak.
Layla grimaced, “He’s left. The phone can’t get through either. Grandma Cooper said it was my mother’s mistake, but I didn’t know it before. I ignored my father from yesterday to this morning. Will he be angry?”
Why is your father mad at you? Your mother and father quarreled this time, and it can’t be said that your mother made a mistake. Just wait a little longer, they will reconcile after a while.” Mike carried Layla into the villa.
“Really?” Layla wiped away her tears.
MIke: “Of course. When did I lie to you?”
Layla squeezed out a smile, then frowned: “My brother is stinking, take me out!”

Mike immediately carried her to the yard.
An hour later, Mike made a videocall to Avery. After a few seconds, Avery hung up the videocall.
Mike froze for a moment. How did she hang up?
Just when Mike was about to continue dialing, Avery’s call came.
Mike answered the phone: “Avery, why did you hang up the videocall?”
“I’m in the hospital, and the internet is not good here, so let’s call.” Avery made a reason.
The real reason Avery didn’t answer the videocall was because she cried all night last night and her eyes were so swollen today. Not only the eyes are swollen from crying, but the voice is also hoarse.
Hearing her voice, Mike heard something unusual in a second.
“Oh, Layla misses you so much. Say something to Layla.” Mike handed Layla the phone.
“Layla, you have summer vacation next week, right?” Avery tried to cover up her hoarse voice with a soft tone.
“Well, Mom, if you don’t come back next week, I’ll ask Uncle Mike to take me to Bridgedale to find you.”
Avery: “Okay!”
“Mom, have you seen my brother?”
“Not yet! Mom picks up. I’ve been busy these two days, so I’ll find your brother when I’m done.” After the mother and daughter finished talking on the phone, Mike took the phone back from Layla’s hand.
After dinner, Layla went to do her homework, and Mike immediately went to the yard and called Avery.
After the call was connected, Mike asked straight to the point: “Shea is dead?”
“What nonsense are you talking about!” Avery raised her voice a few times and roared angrily.
“Since Shea didn’t die, why didn’t you answer the videocall? And your voice is so hoarse, you’re crying? Could it be… Elliot is dead?” Mike asked in confusion.
“If he’s dead, we won’t see each other in the future.” Avery heard him cursing Elliot, and his heart couldn’t stop trembling with anger.
“I’m joking. Please tell me why you’re crying. Layla also cried in the evening, and it took a long time to coax him.” Mike exhaled heavily.
“Elliot broke up with me.” Avery explained the reason. Out, “He doesn’t want anything. I asked him to wait for me for a few days, but he didn’t wait. He didn’t want to see me again, and he didn’t want to hear my voice again. This time, he won’t look back.”
