When His Eyes Opened novel by Simple Silence novel Chapter 229

Chapter 229 

Layla planned to search for her mother on the first floor, but suddenly heard the sound of footsteps coming from the kitchen! 

She was so terrified that did not dare let out a breath, then ran straight up the stairs.

Forced to run up to the second floor, Layle held onto the wall and caught her breath.

At that moment, the footsteps were closing in on her! 

That person was coming up the stairs!

Layla panicked and quickly found a place to hide. 

Soon after, Mrs. Cooper appeared on the second floor and made her way to the master bedroom to see Avery.

She was worried about the match between Elliot and Mike. 

Even though Elliot had recovered from the car crash years ago, the doctor had instructed him to avoid strenuous activities.

Mrs. Cooper did not want to see Elliot lose and get a punch from Mike, so she could only come to see Avery.

She opened the door, then walked over to the bed. 

Mrs. Cooper glanced at Avery‘s sleeping face, and no matter how bad she felt about waking her, she decided that she could sleep whenever she wanted to.

Howeyer, everything would be over once the match was lost. 

“Avery,” Mrs. Cooper said as she reached out to pat Avery‘s shoulder. “Avery!” 

Avery‘s brows furrowed when she heard the calls. 

“Wake up, Avery,” Mrs. Cooper said as she raised her voice. 

Avery slowly opened her eyes. 

When her groggy gaze landed on Mrs. Cooper, she broke into a smile.

“Wake up, Avery. Mike and Master Elliot are over at the tennis court. You have to stop them! You know Master Elliot‘s legs aren‘t in the best shape,” Mrs. Cooper said as she helped Avery sit up.

Avery rubbed her tired eyes, then mumbled, “Mike and Elliot are on the tennis court?”

“Yes!” Mrs. Cooper exclaimed, then told her everything that happened earlier.

As Avery glanced blankly around the room, her back broke into a cold sweat.

“How did I get here?!” 

After a moment‘s hesitation, Mrs. Cooper answered truthfully, “You locked yourself in your car and fell asleep last night. I can‘t imagine what would have happened if Master Elliot didn‘t find you in time and send you to the hospital. Let‘s go to the tennis court now, Avery!”

The tennis match came to halt with Avery’s appearance.

Avery’s gaze brushed over Hayden and Mike, then finally landed on Elliot’s face.

“Thank you for last night!” 

“Don‘t mention it. You should get checked out at the hospital again.” 

Seeing Avery‘s delicate face calmed all of his emotions down.

“There were a few things off on your blood test last night.” 

“Got it...” Avery said.

Apart from feeling a little tired, she did not feel any other discomfort. 

Mike grabbed her arm, then said forcefully, “I‘ll take you to the hospital!” 

As they walked away, Avery could not help but gaze at Elliot. 

She was exhausted after her work last night, but Mike called her to the hotel for a birthday surprise.

She declined, but Mike insisted, and she had no choice but to force herself to drive to the hotel.

In the end, fatigue took over and she brought the car to a stop by the street before she fell asleep.
