Chapter 2016
When His Eyes Opened
Seeing that his emotions were out of control, Avery immediately said, âYou can think about the deal I just
proposed. As long as you can help me get Elliotâs whereabouts, I promise to cure you.â
âGo away!â Caleb covered his ears with his hands, not wanting to hear her voice.
Listening for one more second seems to kill him.
Avery was very surprised by his reaction, but in order not to continue to stimulate him, she quickly came
out of the room.
âBoss, why did you come out so soon?â The bodyguard stared at her face to see if she had any trouble.
âGo out and talk.â
Avery quickly left the house.
On the way back, Avery kept reviewing everything that happened after seeing Caleb today.
The words Caleb said were very strange. He seemed to be implying something to her, but it wasnât
obvious.
His reaction was completely different from what she expected, and she wanted to know why.
Back at home, Avery picked up the water glass and drank a large glass of water.
When the nanny saw Averyâs return, she immediately brought out the prepared lunch.
Avery had no appetite, but went to the table and sat down anyway. She turned on the phone and wanted
to send a message to Emilio, but the moment she turned on the phone, she saw Mikeâs missed calls and
messages.
She dialed Mikeâs number, and the call was answered in seconds.
âWhy didnât you answer the phone?â Mike asked anxiously, âYou and Travis have been drinking coffee for
so long?â
âNo, we finished drinking soon. I went to see Caleb. That is, Travisâs eldest son.â Avery said doubts in her
heart, âHeâs a little weirdâ¦â
Mike: âWeird? You say he is still his son?â
âBoth of them are to blame. It seems that I have obstacles when I talk to them both.â Avery frowned.
Mike helped her analyze: âTravis is 73 years old this year, and the generation gap between the two of
you has been separated several times. It is normal for you to not speak. His eldest son had a car
accident before, and it is estimated that there is a psychological problem. Itâs normal if you canât tell. You
donât have to doubt yourself, itâs their father and sonâs problem.â
âYou can really comfort people. But I donât think itâs what you said.â Avery felt a hunger in her stomach,
âWait when you come back, Iâll eat first.â
After talking on the phone, Avery suddenly forgot that she opened her phone to send a message to
Emilio.
She put down her phone and quietly started her lunch.
Her sixth sense told her that Elliot was very close to her, and as long as she continued to look for him,
she would definitely be able to find him.
The purpose of the two photos sent by anonymous express last night was to make her give up and stop
looking for Elliot.
There must be someone behind the scenes who knew she was looking for Elliot, so she was scared.
After lunch, she returned to her room with her phone.
She thought of Emilio and wanted to verify something from him immediately, so she called him.
Emilio answered the phone quickly, and before Avery could speak, he joked, âYou met my dad and my
elder brother⦠Now you are calling me non-stop, what do you want to say?â
âYour brotherâs car accident wasnât an accident, it was man-made.â Avery threw the question out, âEmilio,
shouldnât you have caused his car accident?!â
