All Chapters of When His Eyes Opened: Chapter 781 - Chapter 790

Layla was not a clueless child. She glanced at the woman who followed her in with the corner of her eyes. She did not know this person at all, so why would she claim that there was something she needed from Layla?Layla relieved herself and swiftly pulled her pants back up."Don't be nervous, Layla. I'm not a bad person," the woman immediately started talking once Layla was dressed. "I am sent by Elliot."Layla instantly lowered her defenses at the mention of Elliot. Though she did not officially admit that Elliot was her father, he had been nice to her; at the very least, she believed that Elliot wouldn't hurt her.She sighed a breath of relief and said, "you scared me, Auntie! Why did Elliot sent you here to look for me? Why didn't he just contact me directly? I saw him just yesterday!"Guilt flashed by the woman's eyes. "It's more of an important matter and it's peculiar, so he was worried that he might scare you if he talked to you directly; that's why he told me to come inste

"That lady was sent by Elliot," Layla explained to the bodyguard in all seriousness, "Elliot is a bad person! She said that if I don't give the box up, Elliot will kill you. You protect me every single day, how can I let him kill you?"The bodyguard felt flattered and surprised at the same time. "Why don't I feel like that's the kind of man Elliot Foster is? If one beats a dog, one has to answer to its master. I am hired by your mother. How is he supposed to explain himself to your mother if he kills me?"Layla blinked blankly. "So, you are saying that he doesn't dare to offend Mom?""Yeah! When has he ever bullied anyone in this house? Whether it's you and your brother, or your Uncle Mike, he has always been quite polite when he sees you all," the bodyguard rationalized, "why would he kill me when I didn't do anything to him?""But I stole from him," Layla mumbled while tugging at the corner of her clothes. "I stole that box from his house and it contains something really importan

Who took the content inside the box?The truth seemed so close, yet so far. The one thing he could be certain of was that the person who took it was around him.The car crash took place on the highway outside Starry River Villa, so there was a high chance that the box, or the content inside the box leaked from Starry River Villa, it would be hard to explain why the car crash took place there otherwise.In the hospital.Though Chelsea managed to survive, she was suffering excruciating pain because the left side of her face had been burned. The doctor had told her that there would be a scar on her left cheek and it was unsalvageable.She had been tending to her looks with extra care since she was young, and couldn"t accept the fact that her face was ruined.It was more devastating than death, but even death didn"t come easy."You should realize the reality now, Chelsea!" Mrs. Tierney sat by the bed and said in a cold voice, "I told you to stay away from Elliot Foster long ago and

'Why is he here all of a sudden? I've already returned the box to him!' Layla thought.Scared that he was here looking for trouble, she immediately ran out of the living room and shouted, "Uncle Mike!"Layla's scream had frightened Avery.When Layla dropped the phone to the ground, the camera was faced at the ceiling of the living room so Avery could only attempt to guess what had happened from the noises as she couldn't see anything at all.One thing that she could be certain of was that Layla was in a dangerous situation."Layla!" Avery grabbed onto her phone tightly and stepped out of her room.Her heart sank; though she was in Bridgedale at the moment, if something was about to happen to her daughter, Avery would not hesitate to travel back to Aryadelle right away.Elliot scowled when he saw the way Layla ran off in fear. He had met with Layla plenty of times and though she had never been polite with him before, she had never acted so frightened either.He raised his hand t

Layla became even more upset after that.Elliot was not at all surprised.Everything would make sense if Layla was the one who took the box; it explained why they couldn't seem to find out who stole the box because no one would suspect a four-year-old child.Layla was very dependent at the time, and who would suspect a child who couldn't take care of herself?Apart from that, it also explained why the content inside the box was never publicized or used to blackmail Elliot after it was taken."Layla, what kind of clothes did that woman wear?" Elliot sat her down on a chair, before wiping her tears away with tissue. When her sobbing had ceased, he continued, "was she a gray coat?""How do you know?" Layla looked at him, red-eyed. "Did you get the box back?"Elliot remained thoughtful for a while, before he decided to tell her the truth. "No, that lady who lied to you had died in a car crush. Whatever's in the box had been taken. Don't be sad though, what's lost is lost.""But my
