Chapter 95
When His Eyes Opened
Rosalie still felt a little apprehensive about her position. After all, Elliot had almost ended
their relationship because of this woman.
At around midnight, Elliotâs fever subsided, and he finally woke up. Warm orange light lit the room. He
sat up and saw Chelsea lying on the edge of the bed, fast asleep.
Elliot frowned, got out of bed, and left the room.
The following morning, Chelsea woke up to an empty bed and an empty heart. Then, she immediately
went downstairs to look for Elliot.
Mrs. Cooper was shocked, and she exclaimed, âIâve been downstairs, but Master Elliot has not come
down!â
Chelsea was stunned. âHeâs not in the room! I only came down because he was missing.â
Mrs. Cooper became anxious. âGoodness! Master Elliot canât just disappear into thin air!â
As she said that, Mrs. Cooper ran upstairs. She and Chelsea searched all the rooms on the second
floor, but they could not find Elliot.
Chelsea burst into tears. âItâs all my fault⦠I slept so deeply last night, and I didnât notice him getting
out of bed at allâ¦â
Mrs. Cooper hurried downstairs and said, âIâll ask the gatekeeper. If Master Elliot went out, there would
be a record.â
After a while, Mrs. Cooper got the report from the gatekeeper: Elliot had never left. Mrs. Cooper
gathered the servants and began searching the villa.
After half an hour, everyone gathered in the living room.
âHeâs not in the front yard.â
âNeither is he in the backyard.â
âNo sight of him in the warehouse or parking lot.â
âAll rooms on the ground floor have been searched⦠except for Madamâs room.â
After listening to everyoneâs reports, Mrs. Cooper strode toward Averyâs room. She pushed the door
open and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Elliot was lying on Averyâs bed, sleeping peacefully.
Mrs. Cooper swiftly exited the room and said to Chelsea, âMiss Tierney, you should go back! Then, if
Master Elliot needs you, heâll contact you.â
Chelsea was indignant. âWhyâs he lying in Averyâs bed? Didnât they quarrel? The situation is so bad
now⦠Why is he-â
Mrs. Cooper interrupted, âIf you werenât in Master Elliotâs room last night, he wouldnât come to Madamâs
room to rest. Master Elliot hates outsiders in his room.â
Chelsea sobbed and choked, uttering, âAm I an outsider? Iâve been with him for ten yearsââ
Mrs. Cooper answered, âMiss Tierney, i know you have a hard time, and it has not been easy for you.
But you canât force your one-sided love on others.â
Chelsea was angered. âHow dare you talk to me like that?!â
Mrs. Cooper replied, âOur Madam never yells at the servants because sheâs our boss. Iâm not saying
that youâre not as good as our Madam, but I just hope that you can discover the strengths in others and
discover your own weaknesses at the same time.â
Mrs. Cooper might as well have said Chelsea was not as good as Avery.
Chelsea left Elliotâs mansion full of anger.
Elliot exited Averyâs room at eight in the morning. After a whole nightâs rest, his temperature was now
normal. However, he still had a headache, and his limbs were weak. When Mrs. Cooper saw him come
out, she quickly brought a bowl of hot soup to him.
âMaster Elliot, Madam came back to see you last night.â Mrs. Cooper kept looking at his face a s she
spoke.
Elliot held the bowl, but he did not drink the soup. Instead, he looked at Mrs. Cooper, telling her to
continue.
âYou were asleep when Madam came upstairs to see you. Miss Tierney was wiping the sweat off you,â
Mrs. Cooper said, âIt was my fault. I asked her to come upstairs to see you, but I didnât know Miss
Tierney would be so unruly.â
âDonât let her into my room in the future,â Elliot said hoarsely.
Since no one was in the villa, Mrs. Cooper bluntly reported, âYes, Master Elliot. Last night, Madam
Rosalie and Miss Tierney spoke harshly to Madam. Madam took her suitcase and left, and Iâm afraid
she wonât come back and live here anymore.â
