When His Eyes Opened novel by Simple Silence novel Chapter 977

chapter 977

"You mentioned talking about our lives together. Did you have any special requests?" Avery took a seat at the dining table, then lifted her gaze at Elliot.

Elliot shook his head and said, "I'm worried Hayden would feel uneasy about me moving in."

"Well, I'm definitely not moving into your place! The kids wouldn't move there, and I can't be apart from them," Avery said without hesitation. "I don't want you to be upset, but the kids take priority over you in my heart."

Elliot had no words.

Even if Avery had not said it, he knew the reality of things.

Hearing it said out loud just stabbed at his heart.

He could not come up with a perfect plan, so he turned silent.

Avery thought that her words were too harsh and hurt him.

"How about we don't think about this for now? You could move in here or we could move into your place. As long as we don't make it an issue, it isn't something that would trouble US," she said comfortingly.

"I've given it some thought. I want to give the kids some time to accept the fact that we've gotten back together before the wedding. I won't move in before that," Elliot said, expressing his thoughts.

Avery could not help but praise him and said, " We wouldn't have had to go through so many wrong turns to get here if you were this mature and considerate in the past."

Elliot mocked himself and said, "My hair's already turning gray. Could I not be mature?"

"Don't worry. I only saw one. It's not a big problem," Avery consoled. "As long as you keep working out, nobody would think you're my father."

Elliot was speechless.

After breakfast, Elliot showed the sketches to Avery.

One of the sketches was by the designer, while the other was by Elliot.

After studying both sketches, Avery ended up going with Elliot's.

"It's not that your design is better. I just thought that if I wore a ring you designed yourself, I could show off and tell people my husband designed my ring for me. This isn't just a ring, it's proof of his love for me."

Elliot was overjoyed from receiving her flattery.

"Are you going to the office today or staying at home to rest?" he asked.

Avery froze for a moment, then asked, "What about you?"

"I'm stopping by the office for a bit, then going for a meeting with the wedding event company. If you'd like to come with me..."

"I need to go to the office today. You settle things with the event company!" Avery did not feel like spending her energy on such matters.

With Elliot's perfectionist personality, she was sure that he would be able to give her a satisfactory wedding.

"I'll take you to your office, then," Elliot said.

"It's fine. I'm not in a rush. You should go!" Avery walked him to the door.

Once Elliot was gone, Avery immediately returned to her room E;[yKiSV took a look at Elliot's hair samples.

The two strands of hair that she plucked out earlier were not gray hairs.

She had said that to not worry him.
