When His Eyes Opened by Simple Silence Chapter 683
“Didn’t you say I shouldn’t talk?” Elliot retorted.
“Was that what I meant?” Avery asked.
“It was,” Elliot said without question.
“I think you came over just to pick a fight with me.” Avery lifted her leg and kicked him on the side. “Don’t stick so close to 46 me.”
“I’m about to fall off the bed,” Elliot protested in a muffled voice.
Avery sat up and reached out to feel around the space next to34 him.
Elliot pulled her into his arms and said, “I’ll give you everything you want, Avery. What else do you want? Tell me…”
“I don’t want anything else.” Avery felt the heat from his body. She struggled to escape his clutches, but Elliot hugged her tightly and refused to letcd go.
“I want to hug you to sleep.” He gently lay her down on the bed, then croaked, “Avery, as long as you and the baby are healthy, I won’t ask for anything else.”
“Is that so?” Avery’s body heated up as her heart began to race. “Did you become more thick skinned after you turned the lightsge off?”
Elliot turned the lights back on.
Avery gazed in stunned silence at his handsome face. There was no hint of jest in his deep, black23 eyes.
“You and the baby need to be healthy,” Elliot said, repeating his earlier words.
Avery’s cheeks flushed. She lowered her gaze and said, “Got it. Turn the lights off and go to sleep.”
Elliot shut the lights, and his long arms pulled her back into his embrace.
When Avery woke up the next morning, Elliot sat up along with her.
“It’s only seven thirty in the morning,” she said. “Get some more sleep.”
“I’m not tired.” Elliot reached out to pick up his phone from the nightstand, then called his bodyguard.
He had no clothes to wear, so he had to get the bodyguard to bring them to him.
Someone knocked on the bedroom door soon after the call ended.
Avery walked over to open the door, and saw the bodyguard standing right on the other side
holding clothes and toiletries.
“Did you already bring these last night?” she asked.
“Yes, ma’am. I went back to the mansion to get them when I saw that Mr. Foster was staying the night.”
Avery was moved to speechlessness by his professionalism.
After breakfast, Elliot followed Avery out.
She wanted to buy a maternity kit and baby products in preparation for the baby’s arrival.
Elliot insisted on going with her after hearing about it.
Avery had made a list on her phone of the things she needed to buy.
At this moment, her phone was in Elliot’s hands, and he was looking at it with an unusually serious expression on his face.
“Did you make this list overnight after getting custody of the baby?” He saw that the list was made at two in the morning.
Embarrassed, Avery took her phone back and said, “I couldn’t really sleep last night. I remembered that I hadn’t prepared these things yet, so I just simply made a list.”
“Is it because you’re too excited?” As Elliot exposed her, an idea popped into his head. “When the baby’s born, I’m moving into your house and living with you.”
Avery’s brows shot up in surprise as if she did not understand a word he was saying.
“The baby isn’t yours alone. I have the right to take care of him, too.” Elliot’s Adam’s apple bobbed in his throat. He looked resigned as he said, “Since you won’t let me take him away, I’ll just have to move in and raise him with you.”
Avery was distressed.
She did not want this, but she did not want to let him raise the baby by himself even more.
“If you insist, then let’s give it a try!”
“Okay.”
Once they reached an agreement, they began shopping.
Photos of Avery and Elliot shopping were quickly sent to Chelsea’s phone. As she stared at their loving photos, her face gradually turned ominous
