How had she treated him? His forgiveness and mercy seemed like a joke.After a short contemplation, Elliot turned around. The bodyguard immediately understood what Elliot meant and took Avery away! The hall instantly fell into pin-drop silence! Avery did not cry or make a fuss. She just disappeared from his line of sight. Like all those years ago, she quietly left him. …The bodyguard took her to an underground cellar.The room was dim. With the light of dusk, she could see that the underground cellar had not been renovated. They were walking on cement and steel. Strange sounds kept ringing in their ears.There was a nauseating coppery smell that clung to the air!After walking for five minutes, the bodyguard shoved her forward! Avery was caught off guard, and she fell to the ground.She came into contact with something sticky. Fear licked her. Grass. She had touched grass, but the grass was covered in something sticky. It smelt foul.Avery frowned and she quickly pulled

Splash! Cold water hit Avery in the face. She came around! The wound on her head was so painful she silently gasped."Not dead yet." The bodyguard who splashed her with water threw the bucket aside. He said, "We don't see people dying in dramas from running into a wall, right? Hehe! No one dies that easily!""What should we do next? This woman is stubborn. If we don't do something harsher, she won't talk."The other bodyguard nodded.Avery gritted her teeth and looked at them coldly. All of her fear in her was converted to a never-ending flow of resentment. The more Elliot treated her this way, the more she would not tell him! Even if he skinned her with his bare hands! Even if she dies, she would never tell him who her children's father is! Allowing the children to enter an orphanage was better than having the devil for a father!The two bodyguards were talking amongst themselves in hushed tones. Then one came over, grabbed her with one hand, and dragged her forward."Miss

Avery looked like she was already dead.Looking at her life hanging by the thread, Elliot asked himself if this was the outcome that he wanted!Would her death relieve him? Then why was he even more heartbroken?He picked her up from the floor. Her body was ice cold. Carrying her was like carrying a block of ice! "Avery!" Elliot yelled hysterically, "I have not given you permission to die! You're not allowed to die!"The bodyguards heard other emotions besides hatred in his voice. There was anxiety and indignation too!"What's going on with Mr. Foster? Avery is not dead yet. Didn't I tell him already?" one of the bodyguards asked, stumped.The other bodyguard replied, "I think Mr. Foster is very afraid that she might die."Elliot's personal bodyguard looked at them. "You two have overdone it! If anything were to happen to Avery Tate, you two are finished!"The two bodyguards were so frightened their faces turned green. "Mr. Foster agreed that we should take her down there! Al

Avery should feel sad or upset, but no tears to her eyes. There was no reaction in her heart either.There was only the splitting pain in her head. It was so excruciating that even breathing hurt. She wanted to get up, but her body was sore and aching.She was having a fever. Her body was extremely hot, but she was cold.When Elliot finished his call, he passed his phone back to the bodyguard. The bodyguard pointed at the bed. Elliot looked. Avery's eyes were open, but there were no signs of life on her face. She was awake, but she looked dead.He hated her in this state! He wanted her to fight him!Elliot strode over to the bed and grabbed her chin with his long slender fingers.Her body was so hot that he immediately let go!"Go get the doctor!" he sternly instructed the bodyguard. The bodyguard immediately left to fetch the doctor.After the bodyguard left, Avery looked the other way. She did not want to see him.Elliot was furious. He grabbed her chin once again, forcing

Avery's body was getting hotter, and her skin was getting redder! It looked like she was going to burn to death!No matter how many times he said her name, Avery did not react!His heart constricted tightly."Doctor!" Elliot rushed out of the room, searching for the doctor. The doctor quickly rushed over. When he saw the situation, he immediately said, "Mr. Foster, we have to stop her fever immediately. We either put her back on the drip, or we will have to administer medication. What do you want me to do?" "She has already passed out. How is she going to take the medication? Am I to feed her with my mouth!"Sweat beaded on the doctor's forehead. "Then I'll put her back on the drip."As the saline had pooled on the floor, the doctor had to replace the bottle before he replaced the catheter. Elliot stood by the side of the bed, looking down at the unconscious Avery. He only wanted an answer from her! Why would she choose death over giving him the info he wanted?At that though
When His Eyes Opened Chapter 394
Elliot's face darkened terribly because of Avery's silent resistance! Elliot indeed could force her mouth open and feed her spoon after spoon, but he was not going to do so! Since she was refusing food, let her starve to death then!He looked away and stormed out of the room!After he left, she relaxed a little. Suddenly, a car honk came from outside the window. Avery pricked her ears and listened to the sounds outside the window. Many cars pulled up in front of the mansion. A moment later, a cacophony of sounds came from downstairs. Why were there so many people here so late at night? Why were they here at such a remote place?Elliot had said that this was one of his holiday villas. Did he invite them there? His mother had just passed, but not only was he not with her, but he was in a remote forest villa hosting a party?!Just when she planned to get out of bed to head over to the window to have a look, the room door swung open.The doctor entered with his case of med

When the bodyguard saw her coming down, they immediately reported it to Elliot.Elliot got up from the sofa and looked at the staircase.Avery was wearing his robe. It was touching the floor. The sleeves were a little long too.She looked like a child wearing adult clothes wrapped in the huge robe. He furrowed his brows. Should she not be on a drip at that moment? Why was she downstairs?"Elliot, you have hidden a woman here!" Someone chuckled and teased when they saw Avery."He is a man! It would be weird if he didn't have ladies! Haha!""Which family is this heiress from? Or is she someone you found just to have fun with?"Elliot ignored everybody's questions because Avery was walking toward them.Did she not want to die? Why would she be willing to come down to meet his friends? What was she trying to do?He strode over to her and blocked her path. He looked at her with dark stormy eyes. "Did you pull the needle out again!"She stretched her hands out and pushed against

Elliot thought that Avery had gone to the washroom and then to her room. When he realized that she had gone upstairs, he stopped drinking. A thought suddenly flashed through his mind. Would Avery have… run away?!The villa was encircled by the forest that was a hundred kilometers in radius. How was she going to leave the forest when she was this weak? He clenched his fists tightly, turned around, and prepared to head downstairs."Mr. Foster! I'll go check the surveillance footage right away! I'll see when she left!" When the bodyguard realized that Avery was gone, he immediately said, "It's dark at night, and there are no street lights too. I'm sure she did not go far!""A bunch of idiots! You can't even guard a woman properly!" Elliot snarled through gritted teeth! "I'm sorry! I'll get people to look for her right now! I promise we'll bring her back by dawn!" The bodyguard swore with fear on his face.Elliot instantly sobered up! His mind was extremely clear at that moment

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
