All Chapters of After His Eyes Opened: Chapter 111 - Chapter 120

“Despite being allergic to Lilies,” Atlas began as I stepped out of the car, my eyes stinging with fresh tears. “You’ve always wanted a small garden, like the one at our orphanage.” he continued but I was already walking inside.He chuckled and my bottom lip quivered as I recognized the layout. “I kind of uh, made it bigger than your sketch?”I turned and tackled him into a hug. “I.. how did you.. When.. but…”“Stop thinking so much and let’s check it out,” Atlas said with glassy eyes.I nodded, racing through the flowers and dragging him along, eyes wide in awe as the vast estate filled with flowers.I traced all the flowers, my fingers shaking as if they would vanish and this could all be a dream.I knew my life was a nightmare and I hoped Atlas would stick with me, but it became a fairytale and he was in it. MY prince charming was in this fairytale.“Oh, no,no,no,” Atlas said, wiping my tears. “If you start crying now, your tears will be dried up before my second surprise”His fing

“Three milkshakes and two coffees for the most hardworking team in the world!” Atlas chirped, strolling into the living room. I raised my head, offering him a smile. “You look like a mess,” It came out dreamy, laced with love. “I’ll take that as a compliment,” he said, setting the tray down, sitting cross-legged on the floor. I glanced around, her nose scrunching at the rumpled papers, torn sketch pads, broken pencils, Louis’ textbooks, Lily’s teddy bear, and finally, Leo’s sweater. They were huddled together, holding my latest drawing, examining it. “Mommy! I think I got it!” Lily squeaked, scooting closer. “You should add some sprinkles here, and there… just like that!”I bit inside my cheek to hold back a laugh as she drew out her advice, it looked like a beautiful mess. “All your advice includes sprinkles, Lily. If we followed you; this house would be made of glitter!” Leo glared at her, taking off his headphones. “Hey muscle bunny!” she shoved Leo. “At least I have ideas,

“W-what?” My voice cracked, “But how…” I tried to form words as I stumbled. The memories of Adeline throwing acid at me replayed like a loop in my mind, my eyes stung with tears, and I could almost feel my skin burning as a shriek rippled from my throat. “Julia!” Atlas snapped and I opened my eyes, struggling to focus on him. He pulled me into a hug and held me tight. It was then that I realised I had been stuck in a panic attack. My bottom lip quivered, I tried to count one to ten in my head, heck, I tried to breathe. “She… she can’t be free! That woman is dangerous! S-she’s come for us! She won’t spare us Atlas! We just got our family back and—”“No, no, no,” Atlas said, holding my face. His thumb brushed a tear from my cheek. “No one will hurt my family. Not again,” He leaned and our noses brushed, “never again.”I nodded. Atlas gestured at Mendez and he scrambled out, leaving us alone. “Are you okay?” Atlas asked, already guiding me toward a sofa. I blinked, feeling dazed and

“Y-you can’t threaten me!” “Oops,” I said, pausing the video, “I think I just did.”The principal glanced around, as if searching for a way out before he cleared his throat. “That video… delete it.”“Sorry, I couldn’t hear my apology over the sound of your demands,”Lily pulled my arm down and whispered into my ear. “Go Mommy!”“I think you don’t want us to settle offline,” My hand hovered over the post button. “Maybe we should take this on-line.” I emphasized the on and was about to press the button when his voice echoed through the room. “Stop, please wait.”“Ah, there’s the magic word.”“You two, come over here!” He called the kids. “Are you really Atlas’ Volkan’s kids? That woman sounds… she sounds serious.”“She sounds like Mrs. Volkan, Dummy!” Lily spat and I glared at her. “Where are your manners?” I muttered. “With people who deserve it,” She shrugged and I groaned, she was definitely Atlas’ daughter. “Tell me, are you or are you not?” The man gritted and the kids glanced

“W-what?” I blurted as she brushed past me, walking into the mansion. “Atlas!” She cried, and I turned to see her tackling him into a hug. My eyes strained, my throat tightening as I struggled to process what was going on. How could she claim she was me? She had my face? How did she get my face? If she was me, then who was I?“Hey! What is the meaning of this drama? Let go of my husband!” I pulled her from him and she crumbled like a stack of cards. “Atlas!” she cried, clinging to him. “Mommy!” Elara pushed me, crouching beside her. She glanced up. “You are a bad woman!” She pushed me. Atlas’ eyes shifted from the woman to me, as if silently asking what the heck was going on. “Who is this woman, Atlas?” She stood, hiding in his chest. “Why is she yelling?”“I should be asking you that,” He turned to her. “Who are you?”“I am Julia!” She cried. “Can’t you recognise me?” she added, running her hands through her hair. “Look,” she sniffles, rummaging through her bag. I frowned as
