Chapter 2017
When His Eyes Opened
Emilio gasped and said, âMy eldest brother told you that?!â
Avery: âno.â
âSince itâs not, why do you think I did it? Just because my eldest brother fell, I can become the heir to the
Jones family?â Emilio asked.
Avery didnât answer, it was the default.
âHaha! Youâre not the first to guess like this. I donât care what others think of me, because their narrow-
mindedness canât affect me. But you say that, Iâm a little sad.â Emilioâs tone was aggrieved.
Avery pondered for a moment, then expressed her own analysis: âyour eldest brother did not say that
you did it, but what your eldest brother meant was that someone planned this car accident and
deliberately harmed him. Apart from Jones family, I do not meet other people.â
âHow come you donât know other people?â Emilio did not accept her explanation, âMargaret, you should
know her, right? I havenât forgotten the surprise on your face when I told you about Margaret. You must
have been chasing her after asking, where did this woman come from, why did my father stay with herâ¦
but you didnât ask anything.â
âIâm also very surprised. Margaret went to school to find Professor Hough before, but your father said
that you and Margaret met for the first time at your family banquet. Have you really never met Margaret
at school before?â Avery asked question.
Emilio: âAvery, these are not importantâ¦â
âI always feel that the people in your family donât tell the truth.â Avery followed her own feelings and said,
âItâs because you are all guarding me and afraid that I will find Elliot, right?â
âWhat do my dad and my brother think, I donât know. You donât look at us as a family, but we are not as
unified as you think. I was only recognized by my dad when I was an adult. ..so you should believe that
the probability of me telling the truth to you is probably higher than the probability of telling the truth to my
dad.â
Avery: âSo your brotherâs car accident, did you do it?â
âNo.â Emilio answered her question without hesitation, âIf I did it, mr father would not give me the
property that was originally entrusted to my eldest brother. If it was done by me, I might be dead nowâ¦
â¦Even if I donât die, Iâll definitely crippled.â
Avery: ââ¦â
Emilioâs answer subverted her imagination.
âMy eldest brother told you that someone harmed him⦠Hehe! Why did my eldest brother tell you this?
Avery, what kind of magic do you have to make someone as cautious as my eldest brother unable to
resist? You tell the truth.â Emilio wondered.
Avery was stunned: âYou said your elder brother was telling the truth, and the car accident was not
planned by you. Who is that?â
âYou answer my question first, and Iâll answer yours later.â Emilio said lightly.
He seemed sure that Avery would answer his questions in order to get the answer.
âI told your eldest brother that I can cure him, but he needs to find Elliotâs whereabouts for me.â Avery
told Emilio after thinking for a while, âUnfortunately, youy eldest brother did not agree to my request.â
âHaha! Avery, you are so ridiculous! My elder brother heard your words, did he laugh?â Emilioâs laughter
made Avery feel extremely harsh.
Because of her anger, her fingers tightened while holding the phone.
Avery: âHe didnât laugh instead he was angry.â
âOh⦠angry! Itâs really annoying! Because you⦠canât cure his disease.â Emilio laughed again when he
said this. After he laughed enough, he asked back, âI told you so much, havenât you guessed who made
him half-dead?â
âMargaret?â Avery guessed.
Emilio: ââ¦I thought you were so smart! I didnât expect you to be an idiot.â
After Emilio finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
Avery: ââ¦â
She was sleepy at first, but after talking on the phone with Emilio, not only was she no longer sleepy, but
she kept getting angry all the time.
The playboy Emilio even laughed at her for being an idiot!
