Chapter 1910
When His Eyes Opened
âI ordered takeout. Itâs almost here.â Elliot glanced at the phone screen.
âWhen the takeaway arrives, take it to the airport to eat!â Avery was afraid that the time would be too
late.
Elliot: âActually, we donât need to be in such a hurry. We can change the booking.â
âAs long as the flight is not cancelled, then it will not be changed.â Avery couldnât wait to go to
Yonroeville, âElliot, I need a result. It doesnât matter whether Haze is alive or dead. I want to know the
result as soon as possible.â
Elliot: âMe too.â
After a while, the takeaway was delivered.
The bodyguards loaded their suitcases into the car, and they got into the car right after.
The two sat in the back seat, and in the cramped space, the atmosphere was particularly awkward.
âYou donât have bodyguards?â Avery asked.
Elliot: âMy bodyguard is already at the airport.â
âOh, I thought you didnât bring a bodyguard!â Avery said.
Elliot: âIf you donât want me to bring a bodyguard, then I wonât bring it.â
âWhy do you always like to think differently? You can guess ten meanings of a word I casually say while
looking for a topic.â Avery teased.
Elliot closed his mouth immediately.
âDid you go to meet Ben Schafferâs parents at noon?â Avery thought of the diamond ring from Gwen,
âHow was the talk?â
âTo be precise, I just went to have a meal.â Elliot narrowed his eyes, said lazily, âTheir affairs are their
own decisions. Gwen is not a three-year-old child, and I donât need to care about her affairs at all.â
Avery: âYou are her brother after all.â
Elliot: âIf I wasnât her brother, you think I would go to this dinner?â
âDid they say when they would get married?â Avery asked curiously, âAnd the details of the wedding,
etc., have you talked about it?â
âNo.â Elliot simply replied, âI have been eating, and I didnât hear what they were talking about. What do
you say?â
Avery: âYou donât care about Gwenâs marriage at all.â
âThe two of them are in a free relationship, what do you want me to care about?â Elliot said calmly, âI
want to care too, but she doesnât appreciate it.â
Avery said nothing.
Elliot was afraid that Avery would misunderstand that as Gwenâs brother, he really didnât care, so he
said, âI plan to give her a sum of money as a dowry when she gets married.â
Avery: âOhâ¦â
Elliot: âIâm afraid Others look down on her.â
Elliotâs cheeks were a little hot. He wasnât going to talk about this. He doesnât even plan to discuss it
with Gwen. But he didnât want Avery to misunderstand him again.
âActually, I wonât say anything if you give money to Gwen or not. You donât have to be so nervous.â
Avery saw his blushing and became uncomfortable, âAlso, Gwen probably wonât ask for your money.
Her income is not low.â
âHow she earns has nothing to do with me. She is my sister, and I just do my part. Whether she will live
well or bad, it will depend on her own destiny.â
Avery: âWell.â
After arriving at the airport, the bodyguards took their luggage to check in.
Elliot and Avery are having dinner in the VIP lounge.
âDidnât you say youâve been eating at noon? I thought you wouldnât be able to eat dinner. Are you
having such a good appetite now?â Avery teased him.
âIâve been eating it at noon, but it tastes like jue wax. Now I really have a good appetite.â Elliot didnât
blushed or panted, looked her in the eyes, and replied, âYour boyfriend knows that we are going to
Yonroeville together, are you really all right?â
âAre you afraid that he will beat you?â Avery asked back, âIf you are afraid, you can choose to stay
away from me.â
