When His Eyes Opened (Elliott and Avery) novel Chapter 779

Chapter 779 

Mike summarized the incident in simple wordings and sent it to Avery while attaching a photo of Elliot that he took in secret along with the message.

It was ten at night in Bridgedale. Avery had just gotten into bed and had yet to fall asleep. 

When she saw the message Mike sent, she tried to picture the reason behind Elliot‘s action, but her lack of imagination had left her helpless in figuring out why he would suddenly attack the Tierney siblings. 

. 

If it was done to seek revenge from Chelsea for causing Avery to go into delivery early, why would he burn Charlie‘s apartment down, and why did he choose to do so at such a time? 

There had to be something else going on apart from his history with the Tierney siblings. 

Had it been any time before, Avery would have confronted Elliot to ask him what had happened between them, but she no longer had the energy for that. 

Her three children had taken up eighty percent of her energy; and what little was left was reserved for treating Adrian‘s illness. 

She had come to an agreement with the White Family that she would perform the first surgery on Adrian after new years. After the first surgery, they would decide if they could proceed with the second surgery based on the outcome. 

Seeing that she did not reply, Mike took a photo of Hayden and Layla and sent it to her. 

This time, she couldn‘t help but reply, ‘why are Layla‘s eyes so red? Did she cry?‘ 

‘Yeah. Shea‘s photo was displayed at the funeral and she cried when she saw it.‘ 

Avery was overwhelmed with emotions when she received his reply. If she was at the funeral, she wouldn‘t be able to hold back her tears as well. 

After remaining silent for a while, she sent another message. 

‘How is he?‘ 

‘Which one? Are you talking about Hayden or Elliot?‘ 

Avery gasped awkwardly. 

Wanda set the flowers and fruits she brought down and consoled Charlie‘s mother. 

"Sis, this is not an accident," she said, "Elliot set the place on fire." 

When she spoke, Charlie reacted right away from the bed. He tried to nod but his eyes were soon filled with tears from the pain. 

His mother felt even worse when she saw her son‘s reaction. 

"Charlie, we just need to protect our own properties. If you focus too much on taking something that belongs to others, you could risk what you have in the end!" Charlie‘s mother knew how ambitious her son was, and felt helpless when she saw what had happened to him. 

"Don‘t cry, sis. Charlie will get better," Wanda said, "I want to talk to him, alone. I will talk some sense into him." 

Charlie‘s mother nodded and left the room.

Wanda said to Charlie, "I seeing how you‘ve ended up is like looking into my own future, but I  don‘t want to submit to my fate, so I have to gamble. I thought of a perfect plan and I will surely be able to get that box. However, I will not be working with you any longer, because you have been utterly defeated this time."
