When His Eyes Opened novel by Simple Silence novel Chapter 980

chapter 980

Over at sterling Group, Ben was sitting in Elliot's chair in his office and grinned widely as Elliot walked into the room.

"You sure act fast, Elliot!" Ben knew that Elliot would not get mad no matter how much he teased him now, so he was being especially insolent. "I was only away for two days and you managed to get Avery in the bag. You're even planning your wedding already. If Chad hadn't told me over the phone, did you not plan on telling me anything until after the wedding?"

Elliot walked over to his desk, then asked, " Are the Tierneys and Goldsteins close?"

"Which Goldstein?"

"The Goldsteins from Mount sierra. After old man Goldstein died, his son, Roger took over." Elliot was still bothered by what happened in Mount Sierra. "If I hadn't bribed one of the staff members there beforehand, I would probably be a pile of dust by now."

Ben cursed out loud, then shot to his feet in shock. "Chad didn't tell me about this. He just said that you and Avery were getting married. I'm not sure if the Tierneys and Goldsteins are close because Chelsea rarely talks about her family matters in front of me."

"I remember that Chelsea took time off of work once to attend a banquet that the Goldsteins were throwing," Elliot said. "You might have forgotten about it. It's been a while since then."

"If that's the case, then she definitely knows the Goldsteins. You're not suspecting her of wanting to kill you, are you?" Ben was stunned, "Do you really think that's possible, Elliot? You know Chelsea would gladly die for you. Why would she want you dead?"

"She's not the same Chelsea that we knew." An ominous chill flashed across Elliot's hawk­like eyes. "She didn't just want me dead. She wanted to wipe out everyone there at the time. She's twisted."

Ben was at a loss for words for a while.

"I can't leave her be any longer." Elliot turned to look at Ben, then said, "Send her a wedding invitation when you have time and check her out. I need to know for sure."

All of the earlier giddiness vanished from Ben's face. "What if she says it wasn't her?"

"If she says she didn't do it, then ask her to surrender her phone. I'll check E:_yL6RV see if she called Goldstein the night before yesterday," Elliot said.

Ben listened to his words, then nodded and said, "Alright. What happens if she really was behind it? Are you really going to kill her?"

"If I don't kill her, then should I just wait around until she kills me?" Elliot clenched his fists tightly. "I'm about to marry Avery and we have three children together. I can't die, and nothing can happen to Avery and the kids."

Ben sighed woefully. "Perhaps something really did snap inside of Chelsea. Isn't Tammy Lynch supposed to go and see a psychiatrist? Chelsea should see one, too, but she's too stubborn. Besides, she probably won't bother now that she has no family left around her."

"She's a lost cause." Elliot took a seat on his office chair, then frowned and said in a deep voice, "I've given her plenty of chances, Ben. She was the reason Avery and I constantly misunderstood each other. I've been more

than merciful with her! She's the one who was too greedy and evil!"

"I know. I'll contact her as soon as possible." Ben's heart felt heavy. "Leave it to me. You focus on planning the wedding."

"Alright."

Over at the DNA testing center, Avery parked her car in the parking lot outside of the building.

She let out a deep sigh before she got out of the car.

She could not give up on finding the truth because she was too afraid to face it.

If the results came out against Elliot, then all she had to do was keep it to herself.

She had been troubled by this matter for too long. She could not continue to fuss over this any longer.
