When His Eyes Opened novel Chapter 1055

Chapter 1055

“Vou found Shea, didn’t you?” He frowned and proposed another plan. “It’s fine if you don’t want to kill Adrian, but just in case, I’ll kill Nathan’s family.”

Avery was speechless.

She could not accept what he proposed because she did not want him to kill anyone.

“You haven’t recovered from your cold yet, Elliot. You need to rest. Don’t worry about him. I’ll get the bodyguards to keep watch over him in the hospital so Nathan can’t get close to him for now.” She lowered her eyes and persuaded softly, “We’ll try and find another way once you’ve recovered.”

“Avoiding a problem won’t solve it, Avery.” Elliot’s voice was cold. “He cannot live under the same sun as me.”

“Why not? Adrian won’t take anything from you. He’s just like Shea-someone whose status is probably less than that of a random person on the street. Were you going to kill Shea too if she was alive?” Avery questioned him with a frown.

“You’re being unreasonable. Shea’s dead, so there’s no basis for your question,” he retorted.

“Who are you calling unreasonable? Did Adrian do anything wrong? Why can’t you tolerate his existence?” Avery knew for a long time that she and Elliot would have to eventually face that problem. However, she did not expect him to be that determined.

“He did nothing wrong. I’m the one who was wrong!” His face was gloomy. “I took his life and I don’t plan on giving it back to him for the rest of my life!”

“I never said you were wrong, Elliot.” She took a deep, agonized breath. “You didn’t choose your life. You were a victim too.”

He lifted the quilt and got off the bed.

She watched him stride into the bathroom and felt a dull pain in her heart.

She might not be able to convince him, because there was probably no better way to settle the problem.
