When His Eyes Opened Chapter 272
She sat on the bed with unconcealable joy on her face. Five years ago, her stepmother and Wanda's younger brother, James, stole three hundred million from Tate Industries. After spending most of that fortune, greed had taken over him, and he had planned on making another fortune from Tate Industries. Only this time, he would not be met with three hundred million dollars, just the cold hard hand of the law. A moment ago, Officer Boyd, the police officer who was responsible for the case, had contacted Avery and informed her that James had already boarded the flight back to the country. There was a team of officers at the airport, ready to ambush him. As soon as James landed, he would be arrested. This was something that Avery had spent years waiting for, and even after hanging up, she could not seem to calm herself down. She wanted to share the good news with her friends, but it was three in the morning, and she could not bring herself to wake them.She got out of bed and steppe

Avery heard his question. She slightly sobered her up. Did he think that she would spill the truth simply because she had a bit too much to drink? He had underestimated her. She had drunk a little too much, but it was only beer and not wine. Beer would not completely make her lose her mind. She decided to ignore him and go to sleep. Elliot knew that she had fallen asleep when he heard her breathing becoming less erratic. He stared at the screen of his phone, reluctant to hang up. She would have never called unless she was drunk.Avery jolted awake at eight in the morning. It was a nightmare that had woken her. A nightmare about the time when her father had just passed away. With his death and the company declaring bankruptcy, Avery and her mother had wandered the streets like homeless strays. She had been thirsty and dying for water, but they had not a penny to their name, so they could not buy water. Avery was drenched in sweat when she woke up. She sighed a breath of r

It simply filled Avery's heart with joy to hear Wanda's frustrated screams. "And how are you going to do that?" she teased sarcastically. "You are either behind your brother's crime, or you condoned it at the very least. After all, you spent quite a lot of the money your brother stole from us! How dare you call me?""You got my daughter Cassandra killed! I haven't even made you pay for that!""Oh… Who else died in your family? Why don't you just blame it all on me as well?" mocked Avery. "Do you think that I'm still the girl that you can bully? Wanda, you've lost your last chance when you failed to kill me five years ago!"Avery's voice was cold and vicious. She sounded completely different from how she did five years ago. Wanda furiously hung up. She did not intend on letting it slide and booked a ticket back to Aryadelle immediately. The headlines for the afternoon news read: [Tate Industries to obtain an extra three hundred million dollar boost? Mr. Worsley, the previous fi

Eric was born for the stage. Whenever he was on stage, he could move the hearts of many without doing anything. That evening, Avery drove Wesley to the gathering venue Mike had told her about. The two got out of the car when they arrived at the hotel. "Wesley, everyone here tonight is either a friend of mine or a friend of Mike's, so don't hold back," said Avery with a smile. "We are mainly celebrating the fact that James got arrested. It's something that's been on my mind for some time now.""I know. I heard you mention it before." Wesley smiled while looking at her. "I can see that you are in an exceptionally good mood today."The two went to the event hall that Mike told her to go to. As soon as they entered the hall, the smile faded from Avery's face. 'What the heck? Why are there so many strangers? Did we walk into the wrong place? But— I can see Mike from here,' she thought. When Mike spotted Avery, he walked up to her. "Avery, here you are! Welcome, Wesley!"Avery d

"Elliot pulled him away." Mike pointed her in the direction the men had gone. Avery turned to see Elliot and Wesley at a table by themselves with the bodyguards standing next to them. There was a bottle on the table, and it appeared that they intended on drinking. Avery scowled. Wesley did not drink very often and his alcohol tolerance was not at all great. "Two amateurs! Let's see who goes down first," Mike teased. Avery suddenly remembered that Elliot could not drink as well. "Avery, it's a contest between the two men. Just let them drink!" said Mike, tapping her on her shoulder. She looked up and shoved his handsome face away. "This is all your fault!""I will never get fooled by Chad again! Next time I will ask him to join us instead!" Mike swore. "There won't be a next time!" Avery walked toward Tammy. Tammy raised her middle finger at Mike. It had been a while since Avery had been in contact with Elliot or seen him, and because of Mike, they had met tonight.

"Since you are my stepmother, I will give you a day," Avery said coldly and stepped out of the café. Back at the event hall, both Elliot and Wesley were looking rather drunk after only having a few glasses to drink."Mr. Brook, I heard that Professor Hough had a secret student," asked Elliot casually as he poured Wesley another glass. Wesley looked at him and flushed. "Where did you hear that, Mr. Foster?"Elliot lifted his glass and touched Wesley's. "You only need to tell me yes or no, Mr. Brook."Wesley took a sip and responded in a troubled tone. "I'm sorry, but I cannot disclose any personal information regarding Professor Hough.""Professor Hough has passed away. Besides, it's not like it's something to be ashamed of.""What if that person doesn't wish to be found?"Elliot's eyes lit up and he said, "So, Professor Hough did have a secret student."The person Wesley was referring to had to be the mysterious student. Wesley picked up his glass and took another sip. "

She could feel his breath brushing against her cheeks, and it smelt like alcohol. She believed that he was drunk, otherwise, he would not have wrapped his arms around her in front of all his employees. "You shouldn't drink so much if you can't handle it." Avery tried to get up from his lap, but he tightened his arms around her waist and refused to let go. "Avery, let's drink." He picked up the bottle and poured alcohol into the glasses. "Were you drunk last night because James was arrested?"His arms loosened slightly, and she immediately got up from his lap. She turned to look in Wesley's direction, but he was nowhere to be found. "Elliot! Where is Wesley?" She stared at Elliot's flushed face and felt that he was getting more and more sly. His subordinates must have taken Wesley away when Elliot was holding her. "Given how drunk he got, of course, they escorted him to a place so he might rest," Elliot drawled and handed her a glass. "Don't worry, I won't do anything bad to Mr

If Wanda was willing to consider seven hundred and fifty million as a price to pay, it meant that she had the money. The next day in the director's office of Sterling Group, the golden rays of the sun shone through the window and into the neat office. Elliot opened the list of students that had been taught by Professor Hough. According to what Wesley said the night before, Professor Hough's secret student was not middle aged, nor a man, which narrowed his search by quite a lot. Suddenly, his eyes focused on Avery's name. Avery was one of Professor Hough's students as well, but because she did not start a career in medicine, he had simply glanced through her research findings as a student. Her life as a research student was simple, she had done nothing more than learn and author academic papers. He once did an online search on one of the papers she had written, reading it, however, felt like reading an alien language, so he gave up. Perhaps Avery was not as simple as he had
