When His Eyes Opened novel by Simple Silence novel Chapter 726

Chapter 726
Mrs. Cooper thought about how Avery should not be handling heavy items right now, so she said thoughtfully, “Should I bring it up to your room for you?”
Avery stared at the package in front of her, then shook her head and said, “I didn’t buy anything, so I don’t know what’s inside. Please open it up for me.”
“Alright. I’ll go get some scissors.”
When Mrs. Cooper went to get the scissors, Hayden and Layla walked over.
Avery was in incredible pain from her wound, so she sat down on the couch.
“What’s in the package, Mommy?” Layla asked as she arrived next to Avery.
“I don’t know, either,” Avery said. “I didn’t buy anything recently.”
Hayden’s brow furrowed. “Could it be something scary like the last time?” he guessed.
His words sent alarms ringing in Avery’s mind.
Mrs. Cooper had said that the box was heavy. Could there be things like bricks or cement inside?
“Take your sister to your room, Hayden.” Avery was worried that there really was something horrifying in the package. It would be awful if it scared the children.
Hayden glanced at the package for a moment, then grabbed a hold of Layla and dragged her toward the stairs.
“I want to see what it is, Hayden!” Layla huffed quietly.
“You’ll have nightmares if it’s something scary.”
“I still want to see!”
“We’ll take a look after Mommy opens it.”
“Okay! Why isn’t Uncle Mike home yet? Didn’t he say he’d stay at home for the next few days to take care of us? He even said that Mommy needs to be taken care of!”
Hayden also did not know why Mike had not returned. He also had a feeling that something was something off about his mother’s mood.
He had originally thought that everyone except Layla and himself would be happy about Robert’s birth. In the end, it felt like everyone was upset apart from him and his sister.
Did they not say that Robert would be able to come home after a month or so? Why was
everyone so unhappy?
“I’ll give him a call.” Hayden led Layla into their room, then used his smartwatch to call Mike.
When Mike answered the call, he asked, “Hayden, is your mom home yet?”
“Yes. Why aren’t you back yet?”
“I’m at the hospital. I’ll be back later.”
“What are you doing there? Didn’t they say Robert can’t have visitors?”
Mike hesitated for a few seconds as he felt extremely torn.
Even if he kept things from Hayden right now, he was bound to find out if Robert did not make it through this.
“Your brother’s sick. Things aren’t looking good.” Mike tried his best to keep his tone light.” Take care of your sister, Hayden.”
“What’s wrong with him?” Hayden’s expression instantly turned gloomy. “Can’t they just treat him if he’s sick?”
“He needs a blood change. We can’t find a source right now, so they can’t give him a blood transfusion. If he doesn’t get one soon, he’ll die. This isn’t something that can be settled with money, nor is it something that your mother’s medical skills can solve. That’s why you
FIULEY;f Layla need to be alright. The two of you are the reason for your mother to keep living.
In the living room downstairs, when Mrs. Cooper opened up the package, a black headstone appeared before her eyes.
She let out a scream of horror and stumbled back several steps!
Avery saw the headstone from the couch and shot to her feet.
Who would send her a headstone? Whose was it?! Her blood instantly boiled as a strong hunch rose inside of her.
