Chapter 799
When His Eyes Opened
There was a knock on Elliotâs door. Then, it was pushed open.
Ben entered. âElliot, itâs almost the New Year. How do you plan to celebrate? Will you be home or out
on holiday?â
Elliot did not look up. His tone was calm. âIâll be spending it at home.â
âThen, Iâll come over to your place to have dinner! Iâm not going back to see my parents.â Ben walked
over to Elliotâs desk and sat down.
âChadâs culinary skills are quite good. Weâll get him to cook.â
Elliot look at him and said directly, âYou all donât need to accompany me.â
Ben scratched his head. âItâs not only to accompany you. My parentâs house is too cold. They are on a
vacation on a tropical island right now! I donât want to be their third wheel.â
Elliot said, âYour parents have such a good relationship, why donât you get married?â
Ben sighed. âIf I get married, that means I have to bear a huge responsibility. I think being single is
quite good. I get to have fun with whomever I want.â
âYou still canât get over Chelsea, right?â Elliot thought for a while and told him, âChelseaâs face is
ruined. She should still be in the hospital.â
âI know, I want to visit her, but Iâm afraid she canât take it. She must surely not want to see anyone right
now.â Ben smiled mockingly.
âI used to admire her a lot, but that was in the past. After she used me to go up against Avery, she no
longer has a place in my heart.â
Elliot picked his cup of coffee up and had a sip.
âSometimes, I think that time is cruel. Not only will it change our environment, but it also changes our
hearts,â Ben teased, âBut donât worry, I will never betray you.â
âYou got it the other way around,â Elliot corrected him, âItâs because people change, which is why the
environment changes according to it.â
âYouâre right. Thinking that one could be friends forever, yet they become enemies in a blink of an eye,â
Ben said helplessly, âAt least the terrible year is coming to an end! Next year will be better!â
âOur financial report is not that bad,â Elliot comforted him.
âHaha! Yes! Iâm going to get fireworks! Weâll have fireworks in your courtyard throughout the entire
night!â Ben chuckled left.
At the hospital.
Charlie was discharged that day. He has decided to head home to recuperate. Chelsea was asked to
discharge as well, to leave together with him, but Chelsea was unwilling to do so.
If she could, she hoped that she could stay in the hospital forever. That way, she did not need to face
her ugly face.
Charlie sat in the wheelchair. He looked at Chelsea on the bed coldly.
âChelsea, only your face is ruined. There is nothing to fear,â Charlie said relaxedly, âLet me see what
your face has turned into.â
Chelseaâs injured left face was wrapped in bandages. She refused to let the doctors unwrap the
bandages or even change them.
âNo! Charlie! Donât force me!â Chelseaâs tensed body started to tremble.
Charlie glanced at the two bodyguards by the side. âPin her down.â
Then, he instructed the doctor, âUnwrap her bandages!â
The bodyguards disregard Chelseaâs struggle, pinning her to the bed.
The doctor quickly walked over and unwrapped Chelseaâs bandages.
Chelsea has been crying every day. She refused to change her bandages, so not only did her face not
heal, but it had turned worse.
Disgusting blood and body fluids mixed together. It was a terrifying sight to behold! No one dared to
look at it straight!
Charlie looked at the wound on her face. He was stunned for a while before mocking, âChelsea, oh,
Chelsea! Even beggars on the streets are better than you!â
Charlieâs words broke Chelseaâs heart. Not only did he humiliate her with words, but he also got
someone to bring a mirror over, forcing her to see how scary her face was!
