When His Eyes Opened novel by Simple Silence novel Chapter 276

Chapter 276 “Elliot pulled him away.” Mike pointed her in the direction the men had gone.

Avery turned to see Elliot and Wesley at a table by themselves with the bodyguards standing next to them. There was a bottle on the table, and it appeared that they intended on drinking.

Avery scowled.

Wesley did not drink very often and his alcohol tolerance was not at all great.

“Two amateurs! Let’s see who goes down first,” Mike teased. 

Avery suddenly remembered that Elliot could not drink as well. 

“Avery, it’s a contest between the two men. Just let them drink!” said Mike, tapping her on her shoulder.

She looked up and shoved his handsome face away. “This is all your fault!” 

“I will never get fooled by Chad again! Next time I will ask him to join us instead!” Mike swore.

“There won’t be a next time!” Avery walked toward Tammy. 

Tammy raised her middle finger at Mike. 

It had been a while since Avery had been in contact with Elliot or seen him, and because of Mike, they had met tonight. Seeing him only added to her headache and reluctance to cut all ties with him. 

“Avery, congratulations on getting that money.” Tammy took a glass of juice and passed it to Avery. “Doesn‘t matter if you can actually get it back or not, at least you have fulfilled your dad ‘s wishes.” 

Avery nodded. “Yeah, I intend on going to the cemetery to visit my dad tomorrow.” 

“Sure! You should take the two kids with you... If your dad was still alive, he would have been overjoyed.” 

Avery considered it for a moment and nodded.

Just then, her phone rang. She glanced at the caller identification and went to the side to pick up the call. 

The two met at a café near the hotel. 

Wanda scanned Avery from head to toe. Avery still looked the same, but her demeanor had changed drastically. Her eyes were cold and distant. She felt unapproachable. 

“Avery, I did not make my brother steal that money,” Wanda had taken the initiative and broke the silence. “How could I possibly want the Tate Family to fall after all those years I’ve spent with your father?” 

“My father is dead. What‘s the point of playing the victim?” Avery exposed her hypocrisy right away. “I don‘t have much time to waste here with you, get to the point.”
