When His Eyes Opened Chapter 2547
"Mr. Lucas, are you hungry? If you're hungry, we'll go look for a place to eat." Irene had bought her books. At that moment, she still had about 30 dollars or so."It's still too early for a meal." Lucas did not want to have an early meal before heading home. "Have you been to the amusement park before?"Irene shook her head without giving it any thought. "Those places are expensive, right? Mr. Lucas, I only have about thirty dollars or so."Lucas took her bag and placed all the books into it before carrying it and walking forward.Irene had no choice but to follow him."Mr. Lucas, have you been to an amusement park before? Is it fun?" Irene's curiosity and eagerness were piqued. "By the way, we are no longer children, right? Will they refuse us entry?""I've never been to one before," Lucas recalled his childhood. In fact, it was not any better than Irene's. His mother had to work in order to support the family.His mother was in the service industry. The pay was higher on the

At dinner, Hayden announced Layla's decision to everyone.Coincidently, all their close friends and relatives had gathered at Elliot's mansion. When they heard that Hayden was going to hook Layla up with a matchmaker. Instantly, pandemonium broke out. Everyone was shocked, especially Avery and Elliot. "Matchmaking?" Avery was a little perplexed. She looked at Layla before looking at Hayden. "You said you want to matchmake Layla? Did she agree to it?""She has made up her mind," Hayden said to Avery. "She doesn't have any men around her that she likes. A matchmaker could quickly gather the world's most brilliant boys for her to choose from."The words 'for her to choose from' made Tammy extremely envious."This is great! Avery, we must be more open-minded. We have to look at the bigger picture. If we were to introduce men to Layla, we will mainly be introducing her to people from Aryadelle. If she has the whole world to choose from, she could surely find many better men! Our Lay

"I was the one who had asked Layla to consider this," said Hayden, looking at Elliot. "She is still sad because of Eric's rejection. She is still sad because she has not found anyone better.""Hayden is right." Avery had accepted the situation. "Layla has been sheltered since she was a child. All the people she knows are all the people she grew up with. It's hard for her to form any feelings for them.""Avery, I'm not against Layla's decision. I'm against her doing it now. She's only twenty-four. Do we need to be in such a rush? She is still young. Let her work for a few more years. Once she is more mature, perhaps she could naturally meet a suitable partner," said Elliot, voicing out his thoughts.At that, everyone looked at him. Layla was about to be 25 years old, yet he still called her young…If Layla was still young, what was Tiffany at 17 years old? Was she a child in kindergarten then?Layla picked up her glass and took a sip. She said calmly, "According to my father, it'

After Layla got up, Elliot immediately got up from his chair without thinking. He planned to walk over to have a heart-to-heart chat with his daughter.Avery held him back.Elliot had a rather stubborn and traditional view of Layla searching for a partner. If he were to talk to Layla, it might only make matters worse."Elliot, why don't you eat? I'll go talk to Layla." Lilith took a sip of water before following Layla out."It's better to let Lilith go. Did you know that when I spoke to Layla, she used Lilith and Ben as an example of a couple with a large age gap?" Avery said to Elliot. "I'm not completely against her being together with Eric. It's mainly that Eric has already made up his mind…""Honey, I hope you can be firmer in your decision, just like when you chose me back then," said Elliot, stilling Avery's wavering thoughts. "Elliot, I know that you don't like it that Eric is older—""That's not the only thing that I don't like." At that moment, Layla was not there, so

Ben initially wanted to name his son Summer, but Lilith thought that Summer sounded like a girl's name. If they were to name their son Summer, then surely the other children would laugh at him when he entered school. So, Lilith took matters into her own hands and added the name Harrod when they wrote down their son's birth certificate, thus he became Harrod Summer Schaffer.Ben chose Summer because his son was born on the hottest day of summer.Lilith added Harrod because when he was born, he had extremely fine hair like a monkey's, which was why his nickname was Harry.When Lilith saw the hairy baby, she was in so much distress that she cried. Already, she did not like the idea of having a son. She wanted a daughter. Therefore it was one thing to not get the gender that she wanted, but it was another thing for the baby to be stunningly ugly, too.The doctor consoled her, saying that the child would grow up to be very handsome and the hair on his body would drop off too.Other t

Lilith said without hesitation, "Of course, there are regrets, but we have to accurately decide on what defines regret. If I had magic powers, I would surely want your uncle Ben to be twenty years old. It's best if he could always be twenty-something, to be always energetic and motivated. That way he could always care for me and Harry."Layla looked at Lilith, not interrupting her."It used to bug me that your Uncle Ben was much older than me. Especially, when I was about to marry him. It always made me unhappy that he was older than I was. But then, everyone talked some sense into me, and I came to accept it. I might have regrets marrying him, but I never regretted that decision.""Why is that?" Layla asked."We only live for a few decades. To be able to have one or two things to be proud of, to have a person or two in your heart, that would be a life lived without any regrets. Your Uncle Ben is not a perfect person, but he loves me enough. His tolerance and love for me are more t

"Aryadelle? You and your grandmother are from Aryadelle?" Lucas was a little surprised."No. Grandma and I are from Ylore."Lucas was even more stunned. "You guys are Ylorean, yet you all lived in a church up on a hill in Aryadelle. Now, you're living in Taronia. Did your grandmother take you around the world to work?"Irene suddenly did not know how to explain her situation to Lucas.After all, she also did not understand many things that happened when she was young. She would do what her grandmother had asked her to do. Wherever the old woman had gone, she had taken Irene with her. Seeing Irene stunned and unable to reply, Lucas asked, "Do you have relatives in Ylore?"Irene shook her head. "I don't know. Actually, I have never been to Ylore. I was born there, but ever since I could remember, I was never in Ylore.""Then, why don't you head to Ylore to have a look?" Lucas did not want to see her that miserable, so he said, "Go and look for your relatives. What if you still ha

Lucas only said so because he felt that no matter how well Irene did in her studies after she graduated, she would surely be unable to find a better job.He thought so because of the scar on her face. 99% of the companies would not accept her.Irene also understood that Lucas was giving her this job offer out of kindness. After all, Lucas did not bother talking to others, but he was usually more talkative when he was with her. "Mr. Lucas, when I graduate and if we are still in contact, we can talk about it. It's still early!" Irene smiled to hide her awkwardness. "What about you? What do you want to major in college?"Irene wanted to tell him that it would be impossible for him to spend the family's money on retaining a servant, such as, her after he graduated, but she held her tongue. She was afraid that Lucas might get angry."When I'm in college, you'll know about it." Lucas soon finished his pear.Irene thought for a while and said, "Then, you have to keep in touch once you'

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
