When His Eyes Opened Chapter 279
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

She had never truly considered settling the matter in private. She had simply said that to give Wanda hope so that she could take it away a day later. Avery wanted her to taste what it was like to suffer. "Very well! Avery, very well!" Wanda was so angry that her lips trembled. "I didn't want to pay seven hundred and fifty million, to begin with! It's not like my money comes easy!""Well, let's hope that your brother won't haunt you when he dies," Avery said sarcastically. "I wonder how you two split the three hundred million you stole from us."Wanda could feel her blood raging in her. "Avery Tate… Just you wait… I won't let you off easy… My brother and my daughter… I will take revenge for them!""Oh, you want to send someone to assassinate me? Aryadelle's surveillance network and the police force's investigation skills have long surpassed the levels of what they were five years ago. I would recommend thinking it through. Think of whether you can handle the consequences of harm

The next day, Chad bore through the pain of being hungover and arrived at the office.Elliot glanced at him and said, "How did you end up in this state?" "Mike deliberately made me drink last night! Before I could ask him any questions, I was drunk. Although I didn't get to ask him much, I realized that he has a scar on his head." "Is it an obvious scar?" "Yes, he must have had a craniotomy before." Mike had carried Chad to the hotel, and on their way there, he had noticed a secret scar hidden under Mike's blond hair.That morning when he woke up, as expected, he shared the same bed with Mike. However, this time, he was not angry. He did not even kick or hit Mike! On the contrary, while Mike was sleeping soundly, he pried his blond hair apart and took a picture of the scar. It had clearly been caused by surgical sutures. "Look." Chad showed Elliot the photo that he had secretly taken. "This huge round scar. He must have had a craniotomy!""Craniotomy is not a minor surgery

It was a call from Chad."Mike said that there used to be a malignant tumor in his brain. When it got serious, he would pass out and lose consciousness. It was Professor Hough that removed his tumor," said Chad.Elliot said, "He still did not mention why he was working together with Avery?""He did. He said he likes drones. Avery possessed a system that Jack Tate invented. After he perfected Jack's system, he was very satisfied with it, so he joined up with Avery and started a company together."The answer was flawless.After the call, Elliot headed back to the restaurant. Although he resented Wanda, he was asking a favor from Zoe, so he had to show some respect to the woman.After he entered the restaurant, Zoe immediately walked over to him and said, "Elliot, I'm sorry. This is the first time I'm meeting Wanda. I did not know that she was Avery's stepmother. I rarely talk to my father, so he didn't tell me about this beforehand either."After listening to her explanation, Elli

Shea knew she could no longer hide it, yet she was afraid as her brother looked so serious and stern. So, she lowered her head and said nothing. At the Starry River Villa, Mike—who was in the living room of Avery's home—boasted about how great his alcohol tolerance was, and how easily he had gotten Chad drunk! He also paraded how easy it was to lie and fool Chad. "Avery, I'm great, right?" Mike was looking for praise. "Chad definitely reported it to his boss! Don't worry. Elliot will not suspect you."Avery was peeling an apple. She passed it to him. "You finally have some brains.""Hey! That was uncalled for! I always have brains, please!" Mike angrily accepted the apple and took a hard bite. "I just don't like to think. Once I do, even Sherlock Holmes is no match for me."At that moment, Layla brought an album over."Mommy, who is this man? He's so handsome! I like him very much!" Layla had come out of Avery's room. Avery looked at the album in Layla's hands. She immediat

Back then, Elliot had spent one hundred and fifty-five million dollars looking for Shea. The entire county knew of his search for her. He had not believed that Avery was in the dark over that fact. Avery's face flushed from Elliot's questions! The tone of his voice made it clear that he thought that Avery had abducted Shea and had taken Shea to her house. At that point in time, Avery had not even had the time to think. She had a high fever! If she had returned Shea to him while Shea still suffered from a fever, he would think that she had not even cared for her while Shea had been with her. "Yes!" Avery yelled, agitated. "I was extremely happy to see you go crazy!"Suddenly, everything went black! The lights in the house went out!"Ah!" Shea was so frightened she immediately found someone to hug.Mike jumped. "Why are you hugging me? Let go!""I'm scared! Scared!" Shea continued exclaiming in alarm. Mike gave in and exhaled. It was just a hug! He did not lose anything by it!

Avery slammed the door and locked it from within.Mike saw that the argument had ended. He immediately took Shea out of the children's room."Hey! Foster!" Mike had initially wanted to stand up for Avery.Elliot glared at him warningly, "Shut up!"Mike held his tongue. He saw Elliot walking over to Shea and taking her away. It was drizzling when they exited the villa. Elliot took off his jacket and draped it over Shea's head.When they entered the car, Shea was hugging his jacket. She looked at the villa. Elliot put on the safety belt for her and said hoarsely, "Shea, stop looking.""Big Brother, I'm sorry…" Shea said. Tears streamed down her face. "Shea, you did nothing wrong. You don't have to apologize to anyone." Elliot raised his hands and wiped the tears away from the corner of her eyes.Shea cried, "Big Brother, it was me. I was afraid of the surgery, so I ran away. I was the one who begged Hayden to take me away…" She had not dared to tell him the truth earlier o

Avery came out of her bedroom. Everyone looked at her at the same time. No one said anything. The atmosphere was extremely awkward."Did I cross a line just now?" Avery walked to the sofa and sat down. "I shouldn't have said that about Shea.""No! It was that jerk Elliot who yelled at your first. The moment you said anything he asked you to shut up. I feel like you should have really given it to him! If I were you, I would have yelled him to death! Not only would I have called Shea an idiot, but I would have said that their entire family was a family of idiots!" said Mike, hoping to comfort her. Avery was slightly stunned at Mike's comments. Laura also chimed in comfortingly, "Avery, you were angry. If he had any sense in him, he would know that you did not do it on purpose.""I don't care what he thinks of me. I'm afraid that Shea would be sad." Avery lowered her gaze and sighed.She did not care what Elliot thought. She was afraid that her words spoken out of spite would hurt
