When His Eyes Opened Chapter 469 by Simple Silence

Elliot could not sleep a wink the night before, so he was sleeping in at that moment.

When his phone rang, he got up to answer the call.

“Sir, Mike said he wanted to hire a nanny to help Avery out. He accepted when I offered to help look for

one.”

Chad received new orders from Elliot last night telling him to keep an eye on Avery’s movements

through25 Mike.

Chad thought it was nice of his boss to do that.

Elliot was clearly doing this because he wanted to take on the responsibilities of a father, so Chad

agreed without9c hesitation.

“I see. I’ll arrange something,” Elliot said hoarsely.

“Also, Avery went viral today. Someone got an entertainment news account to post paparazzi photos of

Hayden and Layla. The post said that Avery was a single mother and even said that her private life was

a mess…” Chad continued to23 report.

Elliot’s eyes furrowed as he said, “Look into it immediately and find out who’s behind this.”

“Yes, sir. Mike said Avery woke up at six in the morning and has been in a panic over the news. Since

she’s pregnant, her emotions are easily affected. She must be upset over this. Why don’t you go cheer

herza up?”

“How would I do that?”

“She can’t eat much right now. You should get her a35 gift.”

Elliot massaged the space between his brows, then said, “Do you think she’d accept anything from me?”

“Even if she doesn’t, I’m sure she would be able to feel your sincerity.”

Elliot thought that made sense.

He refused to let her abort the baby, but could not bear the difficulties of pregnancy for her.

Giving her a present was only natural.

Over at the Starry River Villa, Mike told Avery about wanting to hire a nanny for her.

“Aren’t things fine the way they are right now?” Avery said with furrowed brows. “It’s not like I’m so

nauseous I can’t get out of bed. Besides, the kids are going back to school soon, so there isn’t much else

to do.”

“Don’t you plan on spending any of the money you made?” Mike teased. “How much could

hiring a nanny cost?”

“It’s not about the money… It’s just weird having a stranger live in our home.”

“We don’t have to hire a stay-at-home nanny. We could just get someone to come in during the day to

clean and cook.”‘

“Fine. Bring them over to the house once you’ve found someone suitable,” Avery said as she decided to

no longer retaliate. She then changed the subject and asked, “Do you have a date today?”

“I don’t! Why?” Mike said.

“Layla and Hayden have class activities … If you have time today, then take them over to the science

museum to learn a thing or two about airplanes. Take some photos while you’re at it.”

“You got it! I’ll take them when you’re taking your afternoon nap,” Mike responded.

At eleven that morning, Avery was sitting on the couch with a book in her hands.

Mike and the children were playing with a new toy.

Suddenly, the doorbell rang.

When Avery looked outside, she saw the black luxury sedan parked outside the gates, with Elliot and

Shea standing side by side.

Mike felt suspicious when he saw them, but opened up the gates anyway.

Once the gates were opened, Elliot and Shea very quickly made their way into the living room.

Shea was holding a bag in her hands.

“Layla! Hayden! I’ve brought gifts for you!” Shea said as she distributed the gifts to the children.

Ilm

.

Finally, she pulled out an exquisite gift box, handed it over to Avery and said, “This one’s for you, Avery!

Open it up and take a look!”.

Avery was surprised.

She opened the box and saw the extravagant diamond necklace inside of it.

She was a little taken aback.

Why would shea give her such a lavish present?

“Wow! I love this necklace! Can I trade with you, Mommy?” Layla pleaded.

Shea anxiously interjected and exclaimed, “No! Big Brother got that for Avery! He told me to give it to her

for him!” Both Elliot and Avery were speechless.
