All Chapters of When His Eyes Opened: Chapter 221 - Chapter 230

Zoe's body trembled uncontrollably."You! You—"Her head was buzzing as she turned blue in the face."I was also at Elizabeth Hospital that day, and accidentally caught a glimpse of the person who operated on Shea," Avery said sternly as she watched the fear and anxiety on Zoe's face. "If you want to threaten me, then you must first properly consider if you can handle being discarded!"At that moment, the drinks and desserts arrived.Avery casually began to enjoy her afternoon tea."I underestimated you, Avery Tate!"Zoe went from having the winning ticket in her grasp to being completely helpless in a matter of minutes."We're even! Let's just pretend like nothing happened! I won't tell Elliot about your secret, so I hope you can keep your lips sealed, too!""Weren't you pretty cocky just now?" Avery mocked. "All you had was a tiny bit of leverage, and you decided to act so conceitedly. How could you be in research with that attitude? Even after ten years, you won't be able t

Wesley noticed the fight as he left the hall.When he rushed over, he realized that things were not as simple as they seemed.Mike was getting beaten up by two men, and one of those men was Avery's ex-husband, Elliot Foster.Wesley quickly yanked Mike to his side, then asked Elliot, "Why are you hitting Mike?"Elliot had arrived three minutes ago.When he saw Mike pinning Chad down and beating him up, his blood pressure shot up like a launching rocket, and he kicked Mike without another word. Once he had leveled the playing field, the fight became a two-against-one brawl. "He was hitting my assistant, Mr. Brook," Elliot explained as he dusted himself down. "Chad's weak and can't handle a fight."Wesley noticed Chad's broken glasses, then shot a glare at Mike."Avery's phone's turned off. We don't know if something's happened to her," he said. "I'm going to look for her now. You can either go back to the hall and entertain the guests, or you can come with me to search for her

"We're friends," Wesley answered."Professor Hough had plenty of female students. You're not this close to Zoe Sanford, are you?" Elliot said mockingly. "Do you have feelings for Avery?"Wesley felt a strong sense of hostility from him."Isn't Avery allowed to start a brand new relationship?" Wesley asked with a gentle smile. "Mr. Foster, has Avery ever said anything about your relationship with Miss Sanford?"Elliot's eyes filled with a frosty chill as he said, "That's one thing I find strange. When I asked you to help me find the student that the professor mentioned before he died, you gave me a list of names. Why didn't you just tell me that it was Zoe? She said she knew you. You probably know her, too, right?"Wesley was surprised to find that Elliot was not as clueless as he had thought."Of course, I know her. However, it's been many years since she graduated, so I can't comment on her skills now. Which is why I gave you the list for you to find out for yourself."Elliot w

Hayden looked stern as he said, "Grandma won't let us go look for Mommy if we told her about it."Layla puffed her cheeks and looked a little torn as she said, "Okay… Let's just go find Mommy, then! What if Dirtbag Dad's picking on her?"Hayden pursed his lips, then came to a decision after a quick deliberation."I'll go alone. You wait at home. Come up with an excuse if Grandma comes back," he said, then left the house.As Layla watched the room door close behind Hayden, she blinked a couple of times. Two streams of tears rolled down her cheeks.How could she allow Hayden to go after Dirtbag Dad by himself?What if he got caught?She could not lose her big brother!At that thought, Layla ran over to Mike's room in tears.She opened the door, rushed to the disheveled bed, and yanked on Mike's arm, wailing, "Wake up, Uncle Mike! Hayden's gone! He left the house alone… He didn't take me with him…"Over at Elliot's mansion, a servant walked out of the kitchen and wondered, "Why'

Layla had planned to go to the first floor to search for her mother, but suddenly, she heard the sound of footsteps coming from the kitchen. She was so terrified that did not dare breathe. She ran straight up the stairs.Forced to run up to the second floor, Layla leaned against the wall and caught her breath.At that moment, the footsteps grew closer!Someone was coming up the stairs!Layla panicked and quickly found a place to hide.Soon after, Mrs. Cooper appeared on the second floor and made her way to the master bedroom to see Avery.She was worried about the match between Elliot and Mike.Even though Elliot had recovered from the car crash years ago, the doctor had instructed him to avoid strenuous activities.Mrs. Cooper did not want to see Mike punch him, so she came to see Avery. She opened the door, then walked over to the bed.Mrs. Cooper glanced at Avery's sleeping face, and no matter how bad she felt about waking her, she had no choice but to do so because Ave
