When His Eyes Opened Chapter 2260
Holly burst out laughing as though she had heard the funniest thing. "Hahaha! Mr. Jennings, everyone here in Bridgedale knows how fulfilling your love life is! My guess is that maybe one of your ex-girlfriends or ex-wives looks like me.""Yeah! That's what I mean to say." Dean started chuckling as well. "Why did you come to Bridgedale, Holly? Do you know someone here?""I don't know anyone here." She set her cup down and continued coldly, "Don't try to look into my background, Dean. I'm not interested in you."Dean kept silent. Though the woman before him was by no means ugly, she was not his type either. He preferred younger women, and it was obvious that Holly wasn't young anymore. "I just admire you for your ability and am confused about your actions." He glanced at her casually. "You said that you have Ivy, so why not just hand her over to Elliot? If you return Ivy to him, not only will he not retaliate, he will pay you handsomely.""Mr. Jennings, are you Elliot Foster? How can

"Dean Jennings has shown up!" The man with the binoculars had a clear view of Dean's face."Is the person with him Holly Blanche?" the other man asked."I can't see... I don't think so! Look!" The first man handed the binoculars to his teammate. "That's odd. I thought Dean and Holly were supposed to come out together."His teammate took the binoculars and saw Dean getting into his car with a woman. He managed to catch sight of her face. "Huh? That's not Holly Blanche. Is she still inside the club?""Yeah, I didn't think so! They are driving off now. Should we follow them?""Aren't we looking for Holly Blanche? Let's go inside the club first! We can locate Dean Jennings easily.""Okay!"The two set the binoculars down and exited the car to head toward the club.The back door to the club was left open, so they entered through there.Half an hour later, they exited the club. One of them called their employer to report the situation."Sir, we didn't find Holly. We followed Dean

Dean's bodyguards glanced inside the house.It had a simplistic interior with just a few pieces of furniture which made the house appear extremely empty. Listening carefully, they heard the faint sounds of a little girl crying. "Is that Ivy crying?" Dean asked. "Why is she crying?""If I captured you and locked you inside a room, you would cry, too," Holly said calmly.Dean's expression darkened. "Why did you lock her up? Can't you just raise her like you would a normal child?""That's funny. When have you become so charitable, Mr. Jennings? Both Elliot and Avery have been searching for her, and this little girl... Well, she is not easy to manage, and she keeps trying to escape. She would have run off if I didn't lock her up."Dean fell silent when he heard Holly's explanation."You guys can go upstairs! She's in a room on the second floor," Holly said as she walked toward the kitchen. "I'm thirsty so I'm going to pour myself a glass of water! You guys want anything to drink?"

Before Dean could respond, the little girl said again, "Grandpa, look at them..."She pointed at Dean's bodyguard and said, "They look like puppets!"Dean turned around to find his bodyguard being held at gunpoint, and another gun was pointed directly at him. Terrified, Dean instinctively raised his arms. "What... What are you doing... I paid... I paid Holly Blanche 1.5 million... Is that not enough? How much do you want? Just... name your price... I will pay you right away!" he stuttered.He did not want to die. He was going to make a lot more money and become the richest man in the world. He would surpass Avery, Elliot, and all of his friends.Everyone who spoke his name would refer to him as a legend."Dean Jennings, did you ever stop and think that I'm not after money?" said a woman who was standing at the door. 'Holly' stood outside the door wearing a cold smile.Dean sobered at the sight of her face.It was no wonder she looked familiar, he had seen that face before an

"You didn't know? Dean Jennings, that's karma for you! Hahaha!" The woman burst into laughter. "It's so unfair that you get to live this long!""So it's Natalie... It's her..." he hissed. A bitter smile split his face. He would not be in such misery if he had died at the hands of anyone else."That traitor!" he thought. He had yet to find her and kill her, and in the end, he ended up in her trap....At nine in the morning, Sebastian arrived at the Jennings' mansion.Sebastian had told his father the night before that he had wanted to accompany him when he went to meet Holly, but Dean had rejected his son's suggestion, as he thought that Sebastian would only get in his way.Sebastian had no choice but to give up.Wanting to know how the negotiations went, he waited for his father to return. Though he knew that Dean would not bring Ivy to his own mansion once he found her, seeing a photo of Ivy would be good enough. Sebastian did not know if Ivy looked more like Elliot or Avery

It was snowing that day and the temperature had dropped.Sebastian stood on the porch, put on his jacket, and stepped out onto the snow. "Mr. Jennings, where are you going?""I'm going outside to have a look around. I'll be back soon," Sebastian said as he walked out.His bodyguard followed him closely. "Mr. Jennings, wouldn't it be easier for you to just call your father? What's the point of waiting here?" he asked in confusion while standing in the raging wind."I tried. He didn't pick up." Sebastian had tried calling his father right before he headed out, and though the call itself went through, Dean did not answer.According to what the servant said, his father headed out early so he must have already met with Holly."I'm worried that something might have happened to him," Sebastian said."He must have his bodyguards with him..." the bodyguard said. "Should I call my brother and ask?"The bodyguard's brother worked as Dean's bodyguard."Go on!" Sebastian remained standin

"Mom, once I find Dean Jennings, I'll call you. It's late. I won't call you tonight," Hayden said. "Sleep early. Don't stay up for someone like him. Even if he is dead, he deserved it.""Hmm. I'm not worried about him. His son just told me that he couldn't find him. I thought there might be some progress on the case." Avery only wanted to know if there was any news about Ivy. She was slightly more nervous because of Ivy."If there is any news about Ivy, I will immediately tell you," Hayden said."Okay."After hanging up, Avery looked at Elliot. "Dean had arranged to meet with Holly today, but he left the premise with another woman. I find this all too strange."Elliot found it strange too. "Could the woman be someone Holly sent?""Now that you mentioned it, it might be, but even if Dean is meeting with Holly, he should still be able to answer his phone, right?" Avery asked another question, "No matter how you see it, Dean should hold all the power. Holly is just a fugitive from Y

This place contained everything that Dean held precious. It would not be a bad thing if Dean was dead. If he could successfully inherit Dean's fortune, he would do it, and he would not have to put in any work in order to inherit it either. However, Sebastian did not believe that he would be that lucky. Perhaps, Natalie would fight him for the inheritance!If his guess was right, then Natalie would contact him. "Sir, should we look for Old Mr. Jennings?" The bodyguard was a little worried.Sebastian said, "Where are we going to start our search? Bridgedale is huge. He left at six in the morning; who knows where he will be right now? I just called Avery. She said that Dad wasn't taken by her people.""Then, why can't we contact him?""Avery said that he left with a woman," Sebastian said calmly. "Let's wait here! If we can't contact him after 24 hours, we will make a police report and leave it to the police."The bodyguard lowered his head. He did not dare disagree.If they co

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
