All Chapters of When His Eyes Opened: Chapter 1971 - Chapter 1980

In Elliot's mansion, a few cars were parked outside the yard.Once Avery got out of her car, Tammy and Shea stepped out of the house.Avery's lips curled into a smile at the sight of them.She had been in a horrible mood the past few days and did not want to see anyone else, so the two had not visited.Sometimes, one's friends might know one better than their lovers."Avery, did you go see your mom?" Tammy approached her and beamed. "I heard that Wanda is dead. That's great news.""Yeah. When did you arrive? Why didn't you tell me?" Avery took Tammy's hand in one of hers, and Shea's hand in the other and strolled back into the house."Mike told us that Wanda is dead in the chat group so I thought you must be in a better mood now, so I asked Shea out to come and see you together." Tammy pulled Avery to the couch to take their seats.Mrs. Cooper immediately came over with a bowl of soup and handed it to Avery. "Lunch will be ready shortly.""Do you two want soup? Mrs. Cooper mak

She took out her phone and saw a number from Bridgedale, so she immediately exited the room to answer the call."Am I speaking to Miss Avery Tate?""Yes. Who is this?""I am Mrs. Wanda Tate's lawyer. May I know where you are at the moment? Have you heard the news of Mrs. Tate's death?""I did. What about it?""She mentioned before her death that if she dies, it had to be you pulling the strings. I wonder if you have something to say for yourself?""How ridiculous. I don't have to be a lawyer to know that an accusation requires proof. She wanted to accuse me of murdering her, but does she have proof? Besides, she is in Bridgedale, and I'm in Aryadelle, how exactly am I supposed to kill her?""Even if you are physically in Aryadelle, you can hire someone to kill her.""If you can't provide proof that I have hired someone to kill her, then I can sue you for defamation. You have one week. If you can't provide any supporting evidence, you will be hearing from my lawyer.""Miss Tate

Layla's furious face appeared before the two of them. Her chest was heaving as she stared daggers at Natalie. "Your dad is dead! You keep saying that my dad is dead, so I'm saying the same thing to you, you witch! You are just like that old witch Wanda! Both of you are rotten to the core!"Layla decided to tell her father about how horrible a person Natalie was if he ever came home. He would then fire her and get her as far away from them as possible.Natalie had not imagined that Layla could be this vicious"Ms. Jennings, you seem pretty certain that my boss is dead. Do you know something that we don't?" The bodyguard did not give her a chance to argue and pressed on, "Or are you involved in his death?!""Bullsh*t! I just want my cousin to keep her distance from you people and I said that to convince her! How would I know if Elliot is dead?! You are unreasonable and vicious beyond bounds! If I have the ability to murder someone like Elliot, I might as well stop working for someone

"No. I don't think your dad is still in Ylore," Chad said. "If your dad is alive, we will definitely find him,""But what if he's dead? Will we not find him if he's dead?" Layla asked."Layla, if your dad is gone for good, you will need to stay strong because your mom is going to take it harder than anyone of you. Apart from your mom, you need to be there for your little brother as well." Chad did not want to say this, but words simply came flying out.Just as Layla had suggested, if they could not find Elliot after such a long search, it was possible that he was dead. They simply did not want to accept that."I say this, but I still believe with all my heart that your dad is still alive. He is a brilliant and sharp man and can always overcome any situation no matter how hard they are. I've worked alongside him for years, and I've seen him encountering troubles all the time, but he has always been able to resolve them easily."Chad meant to comfort Layla, but those words were said

Mike was stunned. According to his research, there was no relation between Natalie and Dean, but it did seem to be a coincidence that they both shared the same family name."Maybe I'm just overthinking it," Avery said. "There are a lot of people who have the surname Jennings. They can't all be related.""Forget it and eat up! Weren't you the one who told me that thinking too much when you're eating would cause digestive issues?" Mike said while studying the frown between her brows."Yeah."After dinner, Avery returned to the room to wash up.She could not sleep at all on the plane no matter how hard she tried, so she was exhausted.After showering, she lay on the bed and spotted the big pile of documents Mike had gathered before closing her eyes. She wanted to reach out for it but her arms refused to move. Shortly after, she drifted off to sleep.The next day, the sun shone bright and Mike went to knock on Avery's door.She immediately opened the door."I thought you were stil
