When His Eyes Opened Chapter 1824
She opened her eyes and saw Mike's face. What happened last night suddenly came to mind. "Avery, it's almost nine o'clock. Why are you still sleeping?" Mike walked to the window and opened the curtains, "I bought you breakfast." "How could you walk into my room without knocking on the door?" Avery got out of bed immediately and walked toward the closet. "I was afraid that something had happened to you because you are usually not this late." Mike sat by the window, and his eyes fell on her. "Actually, I didn't want to disturb you, but Chad wanted me to find out what was going on." Avery went to the bathroom to change her clothes, washed her face, and came out. "How much alcohol did you drink last night?" She looked at him coldly. "I didn't drink much, just... a bottle!" Mike felt guilty when she looked at him. "What's the matter? Do I still smell of alcohol? I took a shower." He smelled his clothes, muttering, "I don't smell anything!" "Did you tell Chad last nig

Avery stared at herself in the mirror and flashed back to when she lost her sight. Her eyes suddenly became blind then, and her mood had fallen to rock bottom. Nervousness, fear, and unease filled every nerve in her body. She thought that if she finally called Elliot, he would definitely come and take her to the hospital.After listening to the recording, Mike pressed pause. "Avery, why are you crying?" Mike saw that her eyes were wet and immediately put the phone aside and brought her a tissue. "You asked why I was silent in the second half, didn't you?" Avery's body was tense, and her hand holding the toothbrush couldn't stop shaking. "Yeah! Chad said he asked Elliot, and Elliot said you probably didn't listen to your phone at the time." "He lied!" Avery threw the toothbrush in her hand to the ground and cried out, "My voice was silenced! I told him that I couldn't see! I begged him to come to me! How could he? How could he?" Mike's chest rose and fell rapidly.

Avery's gaze darkened."Are you afraid I can't pay you?" she asked."Miss Tate, I'll take the file, but you don't have to pay me," The detective explained. "Mr. Foster has come to me. He has given me Ivy's photo but because I have too little information, there was no progress all this while. Now that we have your additional information, I'll look for her properly, but my team and I won't be looking for her in Aryadelle.""Why not?" Avery asked."From the information, Mr. Foster gave me. The child might have been sold to the surrounding small countries around Ylore and not a place so far away like Aryadelle.""But the lead I have gotten is that the child has been sold to someone in Aryadelle.""Can you trust the authenticity of your lead?" The detective asked."How can I be sure?" Avery furrowed her brows. "Try looking in Aryadelle! I can match Elliot's price."The detective smiled. "Miss Tate, do you know how much he is paying me?""I don't know, but I saw his net worth from t

"What's funnier is that the detective I hired told me that Avery met up with him and offered him a high price to look for Ivy." Elliot could not understand Avery's actions. "How could she use all her assets to look for Ivy?"Chad could hear that Elliot was still worried for Avery. Otherwise, he would not worry or mention Avery using up all her resources to find Ivy. "Mr. Foster, although Avery is not as rich as you, she is trying her best.""I told her that I have been getting people to look for Ivy, but she doesn't believe me. She insists on doing it herself.""Mr. Foster, you shouldn't be bothered by what she does. After all, you two are already divorced. You will live your lives without crossing each other," Chad said calmly.Elliot's expressions changed when he heard what Chad said. Previously, whenever he brought up their relationship, Chad would always find ways to set them up. His go-to excuse was that they should put up with each other for the sake of the children. Howe

After Wesley entered, he said apologetically to Avery, "Avery, Elliot is coming over."Everyone was stunned."This afternoon Kiara wanted to play with Robert, so I called Big Brother to get him to take Robert over to our place, but I forgot about it," Shea explained."I called him just now to tell him not to take Robert over, but he learned from my mother that we were here, and he said that he was almost here," Wesley said."No wonder when I went to pick Robert up, Mrs. Cooper said that Elliot had taken him out," Tammy said. "It's good that he is here. Robert will stay. He leaves.""Tammy, that isn't good, right?" Jun looked at the feast on the table. "If Elliot is here, it's just another set of cutleries. Also, he might not stay anyway. Let's show him that we are not inhospitable!"Jun finished his sentence when a black Rolls-Royce stopped outside the mansion.Soon, the bodyguard carried Robert out of the car.Wesley and Shea stood outside the door to welcome them. Elliot ente

Lilith said, "What else could it be! Someone she doesn't like has just arrived!" Although Elliot was her brother, she still disliked him. Ever since Elliot and Avery got divorced, Lilith had firmly chosen to stand by Avery's side.Shea blushed awkwardly. "I'll go check up on Avery.""Don't go," Wesley held her back. "Let Tammy do it."Shea was in an awkward position. She was close to Elliot, and she did not understand the grudges Avery and Elliot had been holding against each other for all these years.If she were to talk to Avery, it would not help one bit no matter how she tried."Mike, you go!" Tammy said to Mike. "I have something to ask Elliot."Mike wanted to stay behind to see the scene unfold, but he also did not want Avery to sulk alone in her room, so he walked over to the three adorable children and took them to Avery's room.With the children there, even if Avery was unhappy, she would not dare to show it on her face.Seeing the smile on Avery's face, Mike came out

The three children wanted water, so Avery had come over to pour them some water.Who would have thought the moment she came she would overhear what Elliot said?The moment Elliot saw her, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, but it was soon replaced with calm."I'll take Robert and leave," Elliot said coldly."You can leave on by yourself," Avery said without any regard for him. "Get the bodyguard to send Robert back later."Elliot, Robert, and the bodyguard came in one car. Avery got Elliot to leave first. Was she asking him to take a cab back? If he drove off with the car, how was Robert going to go back later?Elliot was emitting coldness. He pursed his lips and strode away without saying anything.Robert would not be returning home any time soon. After he reached home, he would get the driver to come and pick Robert up.After Elliot left, the atmosphere in the mansion resumed its liveliness."Avery, come here!" Tammy waved at her. "If you're not angry at him because

Tiffany held Kiara's hand and walked over to the camera, looking at Hayden on the screen.When Hayden saw the two girls suddenly appear, he could not help but soften his expression."Tiffany, Kiara, say hello." Although Hayden had never met them before, he had seen their photos, so he recognized them.Tiffany was more outgoing, so she obediently said, "Hello Hayden!""Kiara, do you know how to talk already? If you do, say hello to me, the next time I return, I'll buy you a gift!" coaxed Hayden.Tiffany pouted her lips. "I said hello to you, do I get a gift?""Of course! Anyone who says hello to me gets a gift," Hayden said. Robert, who was in Avery's arms, wanted a gift too. Although he was in Avery's arms, his eyes were fixed on Hayden."Hello, Hayden," Kiara said shyly and nervously.Although it was not loud, Hayden heard it."Kiara, you're great. I'll surely buy you a big gift!" Hayden promised and looked at Robert in Avery's arm. His expressions suddenly turned stern. "Ro

Three years later…Ivy and Robert stood at the airport in Aryadelle, anxiously waiting."It's been three years! Your boyfriend is finally here to see you!" Robert exclaimed before shifting the conversation. "He's not here to break up with you, is he? After all, you haven't seen each other in three years. A lot can change."Ivy sighed, "Robert, can you not jinx it? Although we haven't met in three years, we talk on the phone and video call every day!"Robert quipped, "Digital romance.""Anyway, he promised me that he's going to settle down in Aryadelle this time, and we won't be apart again," Ivy said. Robert smirked. "He's got a strong sense of pride. When he meets Dad later, they might not hit it off, and he'll buy a ticket to leave tonight!"Feeling helpless, Ivy was at a loss for words. Just then, a familiar voice called out, "Ivy!"Ivy immediately looked over to the source of the voice and saw Lucas stepping out of the exit, dragging his suitcase behind him. A smile sp

Mr. Woods did not expect Hayden to be so direct, and he found himself momentarily caught off guard. He had come to ask Hayden for money, but he had not thought about exactly how much he wanted. After all, Hayden's family was extremely wealthy, and he did not want to ask for too little and feel shortchanged, nor did he want to risk asking for too much and having Hayden refuse. It was a tough decision. After a brief internal struggle, Mr. Woods turned to Hayden and said, "I know your family is one of the wealthiest in Aryadelle, so why don't you name the price? I trust you won't mistreat my son and our family." Hayden furrowed his brows slightly. Shelly, noticing his hesitation, quickly chimed in, "Uncle, why don't you make an offer? We're not very familiar with this process. If you insist on us naming a price, we might need to consult my father-in-law." "Elliot Foster, you mean?" Mr. Woods asked. Shelly nodded. "Yes. My father-in-law isn't as easygoing as my husband. After a

"All right. Let's find a place nearby to sit and talk." Mr. Woods breathed a sigh of relief. "Good! Our house is actually nearby. Would you like to visit? Ivy has been with us for many years, and our staff has a close relationship with her." Hayden glanced at Shelly and asked, "Should we go?" "Sure!" Shelly said. Mr. Woods immediately invited Hayden and Shelly into his car and drove them to the Woods' mansion. Upon arriving, Mr. Woods instructed the servants to serve tea and refreshments. He pointed to the butler and said to Hayden, "This is our butler. He hired Ivy's grandmother." Hayden nodded. Mr. Woods then introduced Hayden: "This is Irene's older brother, the renowned businessman Mr. Hayden Tate." "Hello, Mr. Tate. Irene was a wonderful young lady," the butler said. "We all liked her very much. When we heard of her passing, we were truly saddened. Fortunately, she didn't actually pass away! Ivy is a very sensible and resilient girl, one of the strongest I've eve

Ivy's eyes were red as she said, "Hayden, Lucas' mother has passed away, so I won't be able to spend time with you for a few days." "It's okay. Given what has happened, we're not in the mood for fun either. After we attend his mother's funeral, Shelly and I will return," Hayden said. Ivy nodded. "How are funerals handled here?" Hayden asked. Given Lucas' relationship with Ivy, his younger sister, he felt a sense of duty to help Lucas with the funeral arrangements. "It's similar to how it's done back at home. Wealthy people can have elaborate funerals, and those with less money can opt for simpler ceremonies. Those who can't afford much at all can forgo the ceremony and opt for a simple burial," Ivy said. "What if someone wants a more elaborate funeral?" "Hayden, do you want to help with his mother's funeral? He doesn't have any close relatives here, so there's no need for an elaborate ceremony," she explained. "I see. Go and talk to him about it. I'll help with whatever I

Lucas hung up, tears welling in his eyes. Ivy stood by his side and asked, "What's wrong, Lucas?" "My mom has passed away. You should keep your brother company! I need to head back to the hospital." "I will come along! Aunty seemed fine just now, so why did she suddenly pass away?" The two hurried toward the car, completely forgetting about Hayden and Shelly. Hayden and Shelly watched as they left awkwardly, and Shelly said, "Honey, let's go to the hospital. I think Lucas' mother has passed away." "Sure." The two caught a taxi and hurried after Lucas. Meanwhile, in the hospital, Lucas arrived to first encounter the doctor and then his father. Mr. Woods tried ingratiating himself with his son, saying, "Lucas, I came to the hospital to see your mother, but when I arrived, she had already passed away. What a shame!" "Are you sure she had already passed away before you came? I was here earlier today, and when I saw her, she was still alive!" Lucas said. Mr. Woods reto

Mr. Woods sneered, "What do you mean? Are you looking down on me? Although the Woods family has fallen on hard times, we're still a prominent family in Taronia! Lucas may be foolish, but are you any wiser? If it weren't for me backing Lucas, would the Fosters even look at him?" "Shut up! The Foster family isn't narrow-minded like you! Ivy's family doesn't dislike Lucas, so don't go causing trouble! They don't want to see you at all!" Lucas' mother retorted. Mr. Woods scoffed. "Is that so? Do you really think they don't look down on him? Why wouldn't they? Are they planning to make Lucas marry into their family instead of the other way round?" "It's none of your business! You never cared about Lucas, and now that he's independent, he doesn't need you anymore! You wouldn't have come to me repeatedly if Ivy wasn't Elliot Foster's daughter and if she wasn't interested in Lucas. Do you really think I have no idea what you are plotting?" Mr. Woods countered, "What nonsense are you ta

Ivy did not hesitate, immediately shaking her head. "I'm not leaving. Don't worry about me; just focus on yourself." "Staying here is just a waste of time." "I've been studying and interning so hard for so long. What's wrong with taking a break now?" Ivy argued. Before long, Hayden and Shelly had finished their shopping, and Ivy and Lucas immediately joined them to go to the hospital. Lucas' mother had no idea that Ivy's brother and sister-in-law were coming to visit her, so she appeared a bit uncomfortable when they arrived. She tried to sit up, but her body failed her. Ivy raised the head of the hospital bed. "Aunty, my big brother and sister-in-law came over to Taronia for a visit. They wanted to see Lucas and you." "Oh, this is really embarrassing. It's a blessing for my son to know Ivy..." Lucas' mother muttered sheepishly. Shelly reassured, "Aunty, don't say that. Lucas is outstanding. Otherwise, Ivy wouldn't have fallen for him." Lucas' mother continued, "I've

Throughout the meal, Ivy found it hard to enjoy her food. Lucas and Hayden discussed everything that mattered, and the conversation went smoother than anyone had anticipated. Hayden was not upset, nor was Lucas. It was a better scenario than what Ivy had hoped for, but she still felt depressed. "Lucas, my husband and I would like to pay your mother a visit. Would that be okay?" Shelly asked after finishing her food. "Sure," Lucas said. "Don't we need to ask your mom first?" Ivy asked. "It's fine. We can just head over right away and introduce them once we arrive." Lucas' mother grew weaker every day and had stopped using her phone altogether, so it was her nurse, whom Lucas had hired, who reported his mother's condition to him daily. "You restarted your business and have to take care of your mother simultaneously; you're really strong. Most people would crumble under the pressure," Shelly commented. "Ivy had a tougher life before. She didn't crumble, so I won't eith

After what Ivy said, Lucas added, "I want to focus on my career for now. Marriage is secondary until I become more successful." Hayden sneered. "Running a business isn't as simple as it seems. What if you fail or never achieve anything out of the ordinary?" "If that happens, I won't drag Ivy down," Lucas said. "At least you know your place." Ivy felt as though her cheeks were on fire. "Hayden, even if Lucas fails, I won't give up on him. I won't let him go just because of his financial state." Shelly grabbed Hayden's hand again, signaling to him to control his temper; he could be rude to others, but he could not be so demanding with Ivy. Ivy sensed that she was slightly out of line, and her tone eased. "Hayden, we shouldn’t judge people based on their wealth. Our family is rich enough, and there really aren't that many people out there who can compare to our financial state, so why does it matter how wealthy my partner is?" "Ivy is right. Love matters most. Even if we man
