Chapter 1069
When His Eyes Opened
âI know you didnât mean it. But Hayden had a severe falling out with his father because of what you said.
You should always think about the consequences of your words before you say anything next time.â
Avery breathed a heavy sigh of relief after coming out of the school.
Daniel promised to apologize to Hayden the next time they met.
It was a positive result.
After Avery got in the car, she took out her cell phone and dialed Elliotâs number.
He answered at once.
âYou donât need to fret too much over Hayden. Iâve already explained it to his classmates. Iâll send
Hayden to school tomorrow, and Daniel will apologize to him.â Avery remembered Elliotâs lonely figure
when he left that morning and felt especially heartbroken.
He invested money into Haydenâs school behind the scenes and hired foreign teachers on a high salary.
Those actions were all out of love for Hayden.
Hayden might not have understood it then, but when he becomes a father in the future, he might be able
to finally understand Elliotâs painstaking efforts.
âThatâs great news,â Elliot replied curtly.
âWhere are you now? I feel like coming to you.â
âYou should continue coaxing Hayden.â Elliot was in rather low spirits, and he did not want to show that
to her or let it affect her.
âOkay. Iâll meet you tomorrow then.â
âIâm going to the wedding venue tomorrow,â he said.
âIâll go with you.â
He hesitated but eventually agreed.
The next morning, Avery sent Hayden to school and left after Daniel had apologized to him.
Her wedding with Elliot would be held at a resort.
She drove to the resort and met Elliot there.
âYou donât seem too happy, Elliot? Are you still feeling down over what Hayden did?â She walked up to
him and held his big palm tightly.
Elliot shook his head. âHenry took Adrian away.â
The expression on Averyâs face froze and she released his hand abruptly.
âWhy did you let Adrian go with Henry?â She frowned. âDo you know what youâre doing? Do you
think Henry will treat Adrian kindly after bringing him away?!â
âAdrian is Henryâs younger brother.â
âI know that! But I will bet my last dollar that he didnât bring Adrian away because he wanted to take care
of him!â Avery clenched her hGSJvuF;8s tightly and her body ran cold. âIf I had known youâd let Henry
take Adrian, I wouldnâtâve brought Adrian to your house!â
âDo you see yourself as everyoneâs savior, Avery?â Elliot looked at her coldly. âYou wanted to save both
Adrian and me, but are you able to do that?â
âAm I supposed to just sit by and watch you be persecuted?â Averyâs eyes turned red. âHenry might not
be a bad person, but Cole will never let this opportunity pass.â
