Semua Bab When His Eyes Opened: Bab 621 - Bab 630

Hayden hung up. Mike wanted to laugh but he saw Layla's lost yet adorable look. He suppressed his urge to laugh.When they returned home, Avery held onto Layla's hand. Before she could say what she wanted to say, Layla spoke."Mommy, do you think I'm cute?""You are cute! You're the cutest kid in the entire world.""Then, when I become a big star, I'll give you all the money I earn, okay? I told Hayden I'll give him half just now, but he doesn't want it," said Layla as she stared up at Avery with sparkling bright eyes. Avery did not know what to think of Layla's proclamation. Since she could not get through to Layla, she had to have a word with Eric. Avery sent him a text expressing her disapproval. Half an hour later, Eric sent her a reply. [Layla might be young, but we should respect her decision. The entertainment industry is not as scary as you think. I will protect her. I'll make sure she won't get hurt. Please trust me.]Avery had failed in persuading him too. She was

"Zoe, you said that I snatched Cole away from you. Did you see me with him?" said Avery as she stood by the car. "Call Cole now! Let's ask him!""No! If he knew I came looking for you, he'll break up with me!" Zoe said painfully. "I saw the photo of you two at the nightclub! He admitted to it! You are the only one who is still denying it!""Night club? I have never been to a place like that! Either he is lying, or he mistook me for someone else!" said Avery, taking great care to stress each word. "There's a woman who looks like me called Nora. You better check properly and see whether that woman in the photo is called Nora!""But Cole said that it's you!" Zoe did not believe Avery's words, after all, they shared a grudge."Then, you can just continue hating me!" said Avery calmly. "Don't come looking for me again when you and Cole get into another stupid fight. If not, I'll get the guards to kick you out next time."Zoe clutched her waist which still hurt a little. She sobbed hoar

Avery forcefully stuffed the bag in Elliot's hands. "Elliot, the child just moved in my tummy. He can now hear every word you say." Elliot looked at her in shock. He felt as though someone had just shocked him. "Can I touch your stomach?" he asked hoarsely."The baby isn't moving now. He is still quite small, and he doesn't move around quite a lot." This was her second pregnancy, and it was different when compared to her first one. During her first pregnancy, she had been very afraid of telling him about her pregnancy. So, she had to hold everything in and suffer through it on her own. Fear had overpowered the joys of motherhood. However, this time, she was able to fully enjoy her pregnancy. Elliot placed his large hands on her stomach, and the warmth from his hands warmed her. She suddenly tensed. Perhaps the child in her sensed her nervousness, so he kicked her tummy!"He moved again!" Avery could not help but exclaim."I felt it!" Elliot was affected by it too. Instan

Zoe shook her head. "I didn't see her, because when I came to my senses, my eyes had already been gouged out! It's so painful I want to die! I heard Avery say that this is what I deserve. I heard it clearly! Elliot, I won't lie to you! I have nothing now! I can't lie to you!""Her voice?" Elliot was stunned. "Are you sure you didn't mishear?""Impossible! I didn't make a mistake. I didn't make a mistake because I hate her so much!" said Zoe as she gripped Elliot's hand. She gripped his hand as if he were her lifeline. "Elliot I wouldn't lie to you! Even if I did you would probably immediately find out about it! I beg you! I beg you… please, take pity on me." Elliot looked at Zoe's quivering lips and pale face. His heart was extremely heavy.His instincts told him that Zoe was not lying, yet another voice in his mind kept reminding him that Avery would not do such a thing!"Zoe, I'll look into it, " Elliot promised. "But before we get to the bottom of it, rest more and get well so

Elliot watched her as she walked to him. Before he could even think, he was standing in front of her. He picked her up in his arms and walked toward the house.Although Avery had barely been in the rain, her face was wet from the rain or more accurately, her tears. "Avery, I did not suspect you. You said that you didn't do it, and I believe you." Elliot placed Avery down on the sofa. He bent down and said patiently, "Zoe is so sure that you harmed her. If she reported it to the police, the police will surely come looking for you. I don't want you to be questioned like a criminal. If we can find an alibi for you, the police won't pester you."Avery looked at Elliot's wet and wretched face. She could not get angry."I went to Wesley's today," said Avery tonelessly. "I was at his house the entire day.""You were in his house the entire day?" The tenderness in Elliot's eyes instantly vanished. He sounded nervous."Yes. Are you going to ask what I was doing in his house?" Avery's c
