When His Eyes Opened (Elliott and Avery) novel Chapter 194

Chapter 194

“You must be Avery.” Zoe went forward to greet her, “Nice to meet you, I’m Zoe.”

Avery glanced at her and said without enthusiasm, “Yeah, I’m leaving now.”

Avery and Hayden left.

Zoe watched as she left and zoned out for a moment.

Avery was younger and more beautiful than she imagined.

Why did she look for Elliot today? She even brought a boy here…was that Elliot’s son?

So, she came here with the boy, trying to get back with Elliot?

Thinking of this, Zoe felt disgusted.

Would Elliot get back with Avery because of this?

“Elliot, sorry to show up unannounced.” Zoe pointed at the cake on the table, “My friend bought this cake for me but I can’t finish it on my own so I brought this over.”

Elliot glanced at the cake, “Happy birthday, did you receive your gift?”

Zoe halted, “Someone did send me a parcel in the afternoon. I didn’t know it was you who sent it, so I haven’t opened it.”

Elliot nodded, “I don’t eat cake, and neither does Shea. You can eat with Mrs. Cooper!”

With that said, he walked toward Shea and brought her back to her room.

.

After they had left, Zoe took out the cake.

“Mrs. Cooper, when did Avery come?” Zoe smiled as she cut a slice for Mrs. Cooper.

Mrs. Cooper said, “Not long ago. She came to pick up her son.”

“Oh…that boy was her son! He doesn’t seem too young!”

Mrs. Cooper said, “He was adopted.”

Zoe was shocked and at the same time, the alarm in her was lifted, “I thought he was a child of hers and Elliot.”

“I don’t hate it,” Hayden replied.

It was because he had no friends and nobody bossed him around.

The teachers worshipped him and let him do anything he wanted. He had more freedom than when he was at home.

“I’m afraid that you might bump into Elliot next time, what if he brings you home again…” Avery was worried.

She claimed that Hayden was adopted, how long would this excuse work?

If Elliot started to suspect her one day and ran a DNA test on Hayden, her lie would be exposed.

By then, both of her children would be in danger.

“He is my father, right?” Hayden said as he fiddled with a piece of paper.

Avery glanced at her son, “How do you know?”

“He looks like me,” Hayden replied. Avery did not know whether to laugh or cry, “Was it that obvious?”
