When His Eyes Opened by Simple Silence Chapter 199
Cole asked, “Avery! Are you comparing me to a dog?!”
Avery replied, “Yeah! I know Cassandra well enough to know that she won’t have the guts to buy a killer! However, I’m not interested in the two of you, so whether you two die or live has nothing to do with me! If you keep bugging me, I won’t hesitate to find someone to investigate this!”
Cole’s face changed, “Avery! I didn’t come here for you, I happened to…pass by. I will catch up with you another time!”
Avery did not anticipate that random words from her would expose him.
Cole did not like Elliot but dared not use his name to buy a killer and sacrificed Cassandra.
The phone screen lit up as there was a message.
Avery clicked open the message, it was from Tammy: (How’s Elliot so low?! He called you for that woman! What’s wrong with him! He should have known you better!)
Cole saw that she was on her phone, so he stood up ready to leave.
Somehow, he glanced over and saw the chat background on her phone.
The background photo was two children. One boy and one girl.
The girl looked familiar!
“Avery, who’s the girl in the photo? I might have seen her before…” Cole walked toward Avery and asked.
Avery instantly turned the phone away. She glared at him coldly, “You can go now!” Cole was taken aback by her look, “I’ll leave now…I have been pestered by the girl, the girl seemed strange. She looks like the girl in your photo…maybe I’m wrong. I’ll leave now.”
After Cole had left, Avery was feeling uncertain
Could it be that Layla had gone to look for Cole?
.She knew that Hayden and Layla had been taking days off. She did not blame them. Perhaps they just came back and were getting used to the lifestyle here. Therefore, Avery gave them a lot of freedom.
The more she thought about it the more uncertain she was.
Why did these children look for Cole?
To her, Cole was as dangerous as Elliot.
On the other side.
After Elliot had phoned Avery, he went to visit Zoe.
Her hands were burned so they were bandaged.
He could not see the extent of the burn, so he did not know how severe
“Have you been to the hospital?” Eliot asked.
Zoe shook her head, “I can sort it out myself.”
“Severe?” he asked.
Zoe continued to shake her head, “Probably not, it’s just hurting a lot.”
Elliot’s face sank, “Why did you look for Avery? We had a divorce, you shouldn’t have looked for her.”
Zoe looked apologetic, “Sorry, Elliot. I heard that she’s a student of Professor Hough, so I thought we would have some mutual topics. I went over to look for her but didn’t see this coming.”
Zoe spoke and grimaced in pain with tears falling.
When Elliot saw her like this, he could not blame her any further.
“It hurts…” Zoe sobbed and leaned her head into Elliot’s chest. She said with a hoarse voice,” If my hands are badly burnt, what if I can’t perform surgery anymore?”
Elliot frowned and carried her in his arms, “I will bring you to the hospital.” Zoe put her arms around his neck and cuddled into him. She had a sly smile on her face.
