When His Eyes Opened novel by Simple Silence novel Chapter 114

Chapter 114 

Elliot was lying through his teeth, but Ben had no reply.

of all the years they had known each other, Ben had never once seen Elliot in a sweater.

Although, perhaps a sweater that Avery knitted for him was much more meaningful than one that was bought with money,

“Your mom called me saying your nephew was discharged from the hospital,” Ben said. “She wants you to go home for dinner tonight.”

“She can tell me that herself,” Elliot said.

“Did she upset you recently? She was pretty cautious when she talked to me earlier. Don’t be mad at your mom, Elliot. There’s nothing like a mother’s love in this world”

“Please stop talking.”

Ben burst into laughter.

“Do you want to go back to the old mansion for dinner with Avery?”

Elliot thought for a moment, then said, “Didn’t you say she’s been busy knitting?”

“That’s true! There’s only a week left. I wonder how she’s doing.”

When Elliot arrived at the old mansion that night, Rosalie was beside herself with joy.

Everyone else, on the other hand, had different levels of caution on their faces.

Elliot’s cold gaze fell on Cassandra.

“She’s Avery’s sister, Cassandra Tate…” Rosalie explained when she saw her son staring at their guest. “I didn’t like her at first, but she’s been taking care of Cole after he got hurt…”

Cassandra grew apprehensive under Elliot’s unwavering gaze.

She mustered up the courage to greet him and said, “Nice to meet you, Sir. I’m Avery’s sister. I thought that you’d be coming with her tonight!”

Elliot ignored her and shifted his gaze to Cole’s haggard and sluggish face.

The time he had spent at the hospital was the most agonizing period of his life.

“I broke up with Avery half a year ago, Uncle Elliot. She hated me after she found out that I was seeing Cassandra. There was no way that I would be able to devise a plot to keep her by your side,” explained Cole desperately.
