When His Eyes Opened novel by Simple Silence novel Chapter 108

Chapter 108 The villa was located halfway up the hill.

There was a winding but smooth road starting at the bottom of the hill that led straight to the villa.

From there onwards, however, there were no roads leading to the top of the hill.

It was already dark out when Elliot had begun his journey from the villa.

Using his flash as a torchlight, he hurried up the hill.

He was worried for Avery’s safety.

Charlie had bad intentions when it came to Avery, and he was terrified of what might happen to her if he was too late.

He would never have allowed Avery to come alone if he knew about Charlie’s evil plans.

Half an hour later and Elliot was breathing heavily, but it was nothing compared to the hell his legs were going through.

His doctor had ordered him not to do any extraneous activities for the next six months.

He was only allowed to walk normally and not for long periods of time either.

Activities like hiking that wear out the knees were out of the question and carried extreme risks.

The cold wind rustled the leaves of the trees in the darkness.

Elliot was forced to come to a halt as he began to feel a sharp pain in the lower half of his body.

He tried to call his bodyguard, but there was still no signal.

He could make his way down the hill. The little energy he had left would allow him to do that much.

The thought vanished from his mind as quickly as it had appeared.

He powered through his discomfort and continued up the hill.

He had to find Avery and bring her safely down the hill.

It was at that moment that Elliot met with an accident…

His aching legs could no longer support him, causing him to lose his balance and fall backward.

As he fell, he did not think of how afraid he felt, nor did he think of death. The only thought in his mind was Avery’s face.

Her smile, her tears, the way her brows furrowed when she was angry, her calm composure…

It was all Avery

Fear only struck him at the very end, when he thought of what Charlie Tierney might be doing to her!
