All Chapters of When His Eyes Opened: Chapter 261 - Chapter 270

Over on the other end of the line, Elliot fell into silence. Chad handed the phone over to Avery awkwardly, and she set it on the table after putting it on speaker. "Hello, Mr. Foster."Mike tried to suppress his laughter at the formal way in which Avery addressed Elliot, while Chad did not say a word. On the other end, Elliot greeted her with a more formal tone, "Hello, Miss. Tate." Avery was stunned. Mike picked up his glass to take a sip of water; Chad did the same but realized his glass was already empty. "I feel the need to explain to you that we are not trying to give you a hard time," Avery readjusted her emotions and explained the situation in a steady tone. "We have already established our factories not too long ago, but we don't have sufficient equipment and manpower. According to the current situation, it is true that we won't be able to fulfill your order. However, we can assure you that we can have a number of drones shipped over from abroad, but our products

The box had been in the same spot for the past twenty years, and no one had ever touched it before. Now, it was gone!When he noticed that the box was gone, he immediately took all the books down from the third rack. As the shelf was attached to the wall, there was no possibility that the box could have ended up between the bookshelf and the wall due to how narrow that space was.After a while, he moved all the books from the bookshelf to the ground. Once that was done, he searched the pile once again but was still unable to find the box.'Who is it?' he thought. His vision grew red with a dense surge of murderous intent. "Who came into my study and took what's mine?!"He vaguely remembered seeing the box about a month ago. He immediately made a call to the surveillance room. "Pull all the footage from the recent month! Someone has been in my study!"The bodyguard was terrified. "Yes! I will have the footage pulled immediately!""Gather all available personnel to comb through t

Laura was at Starry River Villa, and she was shocked to see Avery hurry in. "Avery, have you had dinner?""Mom, have you seen a red box in our house?" Avery tossed her purse to the couch and walked toward the children's room. "A red box?" Laura followed her and said, "I don't think so. Why?""Elliot lost a box like that," blurted Avery. "He checked the surveillance footage and didn't find anything out of the ordinary, but Hayden had hacked his surveillance cameras when he went to Elliot's a while back, and Elliot suspects that something had happened during that time."Laura scowled. "He thinks Hayden took it?"Avery looked at her and said, "Mom, I know that you don't think that Hayden would do such a thing, and neither do I; but how many things has Hayden done that have been out of line so far?"Laura sighed heavily but did not argue. "A red box, right? Is there something important inside?" she asked as she began searching. "He said it's important," responded Avery with a he

"It's better you don't go. Shea is there as well, and with those two there guarding him, you are definitely going to feel provoked," Tammy said. "Elliot's isn't all that mentally stable. I had thought that maybe his company had run into trouble, but Jun said nothing has happened. I was thinking that it has something to do with you?"Avery walked back to her office chair and sat down. "You've overestimated me, Tammy. He didn't break down when I divorced him, so I don't think that I matter that much." "Then why is he acting so oddly? It can't be because of Zoe, right?" Tammy muttered in confusion. "I heard that she has been visiting the old Foster mansion frequently lately. That woman is too good at scheming!"The more she heard about Elliot and Zoe, the more composed Avery found herself becoming. Perhaps, she might be able to maintain her calm if they were to get married one day.She would no longer cross paths with Elliot again in the future, and they would only drift further and

'They have their birthdays on the same day? A coincident?' thought Avery. Avery took her son's hand and walked toward the door. A towering figure appeared before her. Elliot was dressed in a black trench coat that made him look cold and distant. She was not sure if it was her eyes playing tricks on her, or if he really did look thinner. After two seconds of hesitation, Avery decided to wish him a happy birthday. Just as she was about to say something, she saw Shea throwing herself at Elliot, and with her arms around him, she said, "Big Brother, here's your cake."Avery was standing right next to Elliot and heard every word Shea said. 'Big Brother?!' she thought, 'Did Shea just call Elliot big brother?'Avery scowled as she studied Shea. Shea could sense Avery's glare, and she met Avery's eyes. Perhaps it was because of the stern expression on Avery's face, but Shea felt slightly nervous. She wanted to invite Avery to share the cake, but she ended up choking on her words
