When His Eyes Opened by Simple Silence Chapter 652
When Chelsea heard that Ben and Elliot were fighting, she hurried over and by the time she arrived, the fight had stopped because Chad got between them to break them apart.
Chad had been accidentally struck for trying to stop the fighting; his spectacles were shattered and there was blood on his face.
“Outside, now, Ben!” Chelsea commanded coldly before dragging him outside.
Once Ben was out of the room, Chad glanced over at 46 Elliot.
It had been Elliot who was hitting Ben and Ben did not fight back at all, which brought Chad to the conclusion that Ben had somehow provoked Elliot, or Elliot would not have attacked him. However, the two had been best friends for years and had never even argued much, let alone physically harming one another.
“Mr. Foster, what happened?” Chad asked as he white-knuckled through the pain on his face.” Did Ben do something? Did he betray34 you?”
Elliot clenched his fists and went back to sit down on the chair. “Get out!”
His head was throbbing as he struggled to understand what had happened between Ben and Avery. He would not have been so furious if only Ben could tell him what was wrong withcd Avery.
Chad strode out of the office and walked straight towards Ben and Chelsea.
“Everything I said to you last night just went down the gutter!” Chelsea scolded Ben. “Are you trying to make everyone aware of what happened? What good does this do for Elliot? I’m so disappointed in ge you!”
Ben took out his phone to check the wounds on his face with the camera, and did not seem affected by Chelsea’s words.
“I can’t get over it unless I spill it all out,” he said pathetically, “don’t worry. I didn’t mention last23 night.”
Chelsea sighed a breath of relief. “Your face is swollen. You should go get your wounds looked
at.”
“Oh. You are not coming with me?” Ben asked gloomily.
“You got what you deserve, so no,” she said, before turning to walk towards Elliot’s office.
Ben sighed and stepped towards the elevator, while Chad caught up to him.
Chad was also wounded on the face, so the two went to have their injuries treated together. The atmosphere was slightly awkward inside the elevator.
“Ben, what’s going on with the two of you? I asked Mr. Foster about it just now, but he won’t say a thing,” Chad asked gingerly, “what’s so severe that can’t be resolved by just talking with one another? Fighting would affect your friendship.”
Ben did not want to tell Chad about it, as he felt that Chad was on Avery’s side in some way.
The elevator arrived at the first floor and the door slowly opened.
Ben’s phone rang and he took it out to realize that it was a call from Avery.
He had called her the night before but her phone had been switched off, and she had now called him back
He accepted the call and heard Avery’s casual voice saying, “I didn’t get your call last night, Ben. Is there something you need?”
“I saw a woman last night in Caesar Hotel and she looked a lot like you, so I called you to make sure,” Ben said emotionlessly.
Chad was surprised by how cold Ben’s attitude was towards Avery.
“I was in that hotel last night,” she said.
Just as she thought Ben was going to ask why she was in the hotel, he said, “then there’s nothing.”
With that, he hung up.
Chad was confused. “Ben, I know that you are in a fight with Mr. Foster, but you don’t have to vent your anger on Avery, do you?”
“You have it the other way around, but don’t ask me why I am in a fight with Elliot because of her. Don’t ask,” Ben said in a cold tone.
“Oh. I won’t ask.” Chad didn’t know what happened, but judging from Ben’s reaction, the situation was bad.
