Chapter 2013
When His Eyes Opened
Travis was stunned.
âMs. Tate, I really donât know what you said. If she doesnât mention these old things, I canât find out. â
Avery: âWell. Itâs all little things.â
âItâs not a trivial matter, is it? Why did she hit you?â Travisâs tone seemed to be an injustice to Avery.
It has been many years since this incident, and Avery recalled that it was no longer painful.
Avery: âMs. Gomez insisted on seeing my teacher, but my teacher didnât want to see her. So I helped my
teacher stop her and tried to persuade her to leave, but she called me a v!xen and slapped me. Iâm not
sure if she still Remember me, but I remember her deeply because of it.â
When Emilio told her Margaret Gomezâs name, Avery immediately thought of this woman.
âMy son has studied under Professor Hough like you, so why doesnât my son know about this?â Travis
wondered, âWhen I brought Margaret to meet my children, it was the first time they saw Margaret. â
âYour son wasnât in the laboratory at all. I havenât seen him a few times.â Averyâs answer pierced Travisâs
heart.
Travis said, âMargaret and I have known each other since early years, but we just nodded. Margaret
never mentioned you in front of me. I think she just took her anger at Professor Hough on you. But her
behavior is still wrong, and I apologize to you on her behalf.â
âNo need. I didnât take it to heart. Professor Hough said that she was fine except for her bad temper. I
believe that Professor Hu will not see the wrong person.â
âYes, itâs not that she has a bad temper, but that she has a weird temper. As long as she follows her
temper, she can say anything.â Travis continued to defend his girlfriend, âWe plan to have a simple
wedding, I donât know Ms. Tate. Will you be able to show your face then?â
âOkay!â Avery responded immediately.
After the coffee was finished, Avery followed Travis to his villa.
In order to facilitate chatting, Travis asked Avery to get into his car.
âOriginally, Margaret also wanted to help treat Calebâs illness, but she is now older and her energy is far
less than you. Besides, we are planning to get married. Margaret values this wedding very much.â Travis
explained to Avery.
Avery: âWell. Mr. Jones, I heard that you are still working normally now. I really admire you for having
such a good body.â
âHaha, thatâs just an outside rumor! Iâm old now and I only work two or three hours a day. The main
affairs of the company have been handed over to my children and professional managers.â Travis said
truthfully, âMs. Tate, Whatâs the situation of your ex-husband now?â
Avery didnât expect that Travis would take the initiative to ask.
Avery: âI got an anonymous courier last night with two pictures in it. It said my ex-husband was dead.â
âOhâ¦thatâs a pity! Elliot is a famous business genius, and Iâm really jealous!â Travis sighed regretfully,
âBut I heard that you and him divorced before and it was very unpleasant.â
âWell, Mr. Jones, I heard that you have had many marriages. When each term ends, did you break up
peacefully?â
Travis shook his head: âMost of them break up peacefully. Because most women marry me for my
money. As long as I give enough money, they naturally have no complaints. But there are also a few
women who are more difficult⦠There is a big disadvantage, that is, it is easy to like the new and dislike
the old. Sometimes I know that some women donât want my money, but once I donât love them, I canât
continue to live with them.â
Avery didnât answer.
They were completely different people, and she was afraid of angering him by her words.
Before finding Elliotâs clues, she had to endure.
âYou seem to have several children. Now that your ex-husband has passed away, your children will be
raised by you.â Seeing that Avery didnât answer, Travis continued to return to the previous topic.
