Chapter 407

When His Eyes Opened by Simple Silence Chapter 407

“Just get well. If he does not release you after a week, I’ll give the police another call,” growled Mike. “I

already know what happened.”

Avery asked, “How did you find out?”

“Chad told me about it. He did not believe that his boss was a jerk, so he went to investigate it.

Avery smiled 25 bitterly.

Mike asked, “Is it because his mother found out about the children’s identity?

″Hmm.”

He continued, “I knew this would be the case. You wouldn’t tell him about it, so he lost it.”

”Hmm.”

“You silly woman! If I were you, I would not have allowed my sorrow to get the better of me! So what if

you had told him? Could he really kill Layla and Hayden? I don’t believe it! I don’t think he would be as

cruel as to kill his own children! The two children owe him nothing!”

Avery said, “The current situation is bearable, and I don’t want to risk49 it!”

“Fine. You must call me once a day for the next few days, if not, I’ll call the police,” said Mike. His voice

was firm and unyielding.

“I got it.” Avery felt much more relaxed after the call with35 Mike.

She felt as if she had been living a nightmare for the past two days. It was a never-ending nightmare.

When one ended another began.

After an hour or so, the nanny came to clean her up.

“Miss Tate, Mr. Foster bought new clothes for you.” The nanny showed Avery the clothes.” They are all

branded! He also instructed that I get you cleaned up.”

At first, Avery did not move, but then she slowly tried to get off the bed.

“Miss Tate, are you trying to head to the bathroom? Mr. Foster has instructed me to wipe you down. Just

lie in bed. I’ll clean you up-”

“No. I’ll go wash.” Avery furrowed her brows. “Can you get a walking stick?”

“Oh. I’ll go look for one.” The nanny immediately left.

A moment later, she returned not with a walking stick but with Elliot.

The nanny stood next to her and said, “Miss Tate, the doctor advised you to remain in bed.

Walking around might aggravate your injury, and it will affect your recovery…”

It appeared that the nanny was unaware that Avery was a doctor and that she knew all about the

recovery of her wound.

However, under Elliot’s gaze, Avery silently swallowed and laid back down.

The nanny immediately brought a basin of water and a wet towel, helping Avery clean herself.

After the wipe down, the nanny said, “Miss Tate, I’ve made some clam chowder, should I bring a bowl up

for you?”

Avery replied, “Please secretly bring it up. Don’t let him see it.” She did not want Elliot to feed her again.

It was not that he could not feed her well, but rather, she did not want to see him.

The nanny replied, “Okay. There are quite a few people here tonight. I don’t think he will notice me.”

Avery said, “There are guests again?”

The nanny hesitated for a while before coming clean, “They are the same guests from the night before,

and there are a few ladies here as well.”

Avery did not pursue the topic. She could not care what Elliot did so long as he did not touch her

children. Anything else he did would not get a reaction from her.

After consuming the soup, she slept soundly.

She did not think that the next few nights would be filled with entertainment, parties, and alcohol.

She was woken every night by the noise, and every time she would wonder to herself, “Did his mother

not just pass away?”

Was he celebrating his mother’s death, or was he using women and alcohol to numb the pain?

Her leg did not hurt after three days of bed rest.

That night, she was once again woken by the noise. She opened her eyes and looked around the

darkroom.

After a while, she heard her door being pushed open. She immediately turned to the door in alarm.

A huge figure entered the room. He looked familiar and dangerous. He was reeking of alcohol, and soon

the room was drenched in its scent.
