When His Eyes Opened novel by Simple Silence novel Chapter 247

Chapter 247 

Elliot opened up the bag and found the shirt and cash inside. 

“Swoop —” he smacked the bag and it fell to the ground. 

“Get rid of it!“exclaimed Elliot coldly. 

“Yes alright,” said Chad as he picked it up and walked out the door.

At the mall streets, Mike threw on multiple pieces of clothing to Avery for her to try on.

“You got to try it on before you know if it fits,” said Mike as he pushed her into the fitting room.

“You’ve such a good boyfriend, Miss. It‘s rare to have an attentive man!” The salesperson grinned as she said to Avery, “Do you need my assistance?”

Avery shook her head vigorously, “I can manage.” 

Mike and Avery spun around the whole stretch of mall street for that entire noon. The back of the car was filled with shopping bags. 

He bought clothes not only for Avery but also for Hayden, Layla, Laura, and himself. 

This might be the last time Avery would agree to go shopping with Mike. Avery was famished at this point. They sat down at a random restaurant and she planned to head home right after.

“Hurry up and eat, Avery, I‘ll bring you to a hair salon next,” said Mike. 

“But I‘m all drained up!” exclaimed Avery. 

“You can just sit and relax at the salon. How are you going to look for your next love with that look of yours?” Mike said as he scrolled through his phone for a photo, “Look at this man from Edelweiss. Rich, tall, and handsome, so much better than that dirtbag Elliot. This man should be your standard from now on.” 

Avery was dumbfounded. 

She wasn‘t feeling hungry anymore. 

“Do you think this man from Edelweiss will fall for me with me buying new clothes and changing my hairstyle?” 

“Of course not. You have to go there if you want an opportunity to woo him,” Mike was adamant about it, “We will work towards the goal, baby steps.” 

Avery put down her utensils and wiped off her mouth with a serviette.

“Are you all done? To the salon!” Mike dragged Avery to the next stop as soon as he paid the bill.

It was Avery‘s birthday party that Saturday.

She had it in a five-star hotel located in the city. Laura stayed home with the kids as they weren ‘t too keen on joining a crowded event. 

Mike arrived at the hotel together with Avery at four in the afternoon. Some of the guests have already arrived.

Avery let her hair down with her natural waves. She wore a v-neck cream-colored dress, and the hems were in brown ombre, and it was filled with sparkly sequins. 

She looked as if she had an entire galaxy of stars shining on her. 

The guests all looked in her direction as she walked in. 

Ben and Chad walked towards Avery and greeted her, “Happy Birthday, Miss Tate,” Ben said as he passed a gift to her, and praised her earnestly, “You look beautiful today.” 

Chad passed over his gift as well and said, “My boss can’t come over today as he had something else planned for.” 

Avery smiled and said, “Thank you for your gifts and wishes.” 

As she said it, Mike yelled and Chad and gasped, “Oh shit! Isn‘t that your boss, Chad?” 

Everyone in the hall looked at the entrance and there he was, Elliot, looking dashingly handsome at the entrance.

“Are you all done? To the salon!” Mike dragged Avery to the next stop as soon as he paid the bill. 

It was Avery‘s birthday party that Saturday.
