When His Eyes Opened novel Chapter 936

Chapter 936

Avery stepped to one side. She immediately dialed Elliot’s number before giving her emotions a chance to calm down.

To her surprise, Elliot answered the phone within seconds.

“I’m fine.” His voice was low and firm. She sighed with relief and asked calmly, “Who set the fire?” “My eldest brother’s driver. He’s been with my eldest brother for many years now.” Avery was overwhelmed with sadness as she looked at the old mansion that had just gone through hell in just one night. Why burn a house down just because of the enmity that existed between two humans? “Was it under your elder brother’s orders?” She could not help but suspect it was so. She recalled that Henry and Elliot shared very different personalities, and the former even seemed extraordinarily honest and sincere when compared to Elliot. It boggled her why Henry would even do something so outrageous. “The driver said that it wasn’t the case, but I’m still verifying that.” Elliot then asked hoarsely, “Where are you now?”

“L…” She felt embarrassed to tell him the truth. After all, he might think that she cared about him if he knew that she was there.

“You should go home and rest since you’re not feeling well today.” He did not make her feel awkward.

The fact that she took the initiative to call him was already evidence enough.

“By the way, I gave the children your gifts.” Avery changed the topic to ease the atmosphere.” Layla loved the diamond, but you shouldn’t give her such valuable jewelry in the future. I don’t think it’s appropriate. You can give as big a diamond as you want, but a child will treat it the same as aed stone.”
