Chapter 600
When His Eyes Opened
In the black Rolls-Roice, after Chad accepted a phone call, he looked at Elliot.
âMr. Forster, Mike just called me. He invited me to head to the hotel to have a meal,â Chad hesitated,
âDo you want to come along?â
Elliotâs expressions darkened. âThey didnât invite me. Why should I go?â
Chad said awkwardly, âI heard that Avery called you this morning, but she could not get through to you.
Why donâtâ¦you two meet and talk? Donât look at her smiling so much in the live stream tonight. Mike
said that she was extremely angry. Iâm guessing that she wore this tonight to deliberately make
you angry.â .
Elliotâs gaze darkened. âHow do you know she did not wear it for Eric?â
Chad could feel Elliotâs rage, he dared not say much more.
At the hotel, Eric was teaching everyone how to control the latest drone model of Tate Industries. Later,
under the enthusiastic request of everyone, he sang for them too.
The live stream suddenly became an online concert!
Avery came down from the stage. Mike took a light jacket and wanted to put it on her but Avery
refused.
âItâs summer. Iâm notag cold.â Mike said, âBut the aircon is quite cold.â
âIâm not cold.â Avery placed her palms on the back of his hands to let him feel her body temperature.
âPregnant ladies are afraid of the heat.â
âOkay then! Just now, a few reporters came to ask me. They are very interested in the father of your
child,â Mike said, âIt looks like the viewers for tonightâs live stream have already exceeded my
expectations. By tomorrow, almost everyone on the internet will know that youâre pregnant.â
Avery has thought about this outcome before, but she was not afraid.
âPregnancy is not an embarrassing thing. If they know about it, let them be.â
âBut youâre not married!â Mike pointed out the main issue.
âSo the public would especially want to know who the father is.â Avery said, âIf they want to know it,
thatâs their issue. It doesnât have to affect my life.â
âOh⦠Arenât you afraid that they would find out that the childâs father is Elliot?â Mike twisted open the
cap of a water bottle and passed it to her.
âI canât possibly just stay home and not see others because Iâm afraid that they might know about this,
right?â Avery accepted the water bottle and took a sip.
âFurthermore, Iâm doing this tonight because he forced my hand.â
Mike shifted his gaze downward. He glanced below her neck.
âThis is the first time I have seen you wear such sexy clothes. Why did I never know that you have such
a good body? Iâm sure someone will go mad tonight! Hahaha!â
Avery knew who the someone he was referring to, but she did not care about that someoneâs feelings.
âAre you tired? If youâre tired, Iâll send you back first,â Mike said, âI called Chad. He said he and his
boss had already returned, so I called him over to have a meal. Heâ¦might bring Elliot along too.â Avery
raised her eyebrows.
âWho allowed you to invite Chad over?â Mike scratched his head. âYour fight with Elliot should not affect
my relationship with Chad!â
âOkay, fine! Iâm not tired. Iâll leave with Eric later.â Avery stuffed the bottle of water in Mikeâs hand.
âIâll go listen to Eric singing.â
A moment later, after Eric finished his song, he invited Avery up on stage to sing a duet with him.
Everyoneâs gaze fell on Avery. She blushed a little. She smiled, lifted the train of her gown, and was
about to walk upstage.
At that moment, at the entrance of the venue, a huge figure in black appeared.
Mike noticed Elliot who was beside Chad. He was a little stunned but not too surprised.
Mike has told Chad about the live stream that night beforehand, so Elliot would definitely have watched
the live stream on time.
Without mentioning how attractive Avery looked that night, just by her intimate interaction with Eric,
Elliot might not be able to take it.
Mike whistled secretly. Avery still had tricks up her sleeves! She knew how to make this proud man
bow down to her!
Mike tugged Averyâs arm and whispered two words in her ear, âHeâs here.â
Avery looked toward the entrance of the venue. Elliot has already entered by then. His cold gaze
landed on her. The arrogant aura he emitted was so different from the others.
