Chapter 464


    When His Eyes Opened Chapter 464 by Simple Silence


    She immediately tensed. Since she was facing her back at him, she couldn’t see his face and had no


    clue as to what he was trying to do.


    She was instantly at a crossroad, thinking to herself, ‘what should I do if he tries something?’


    To her surprise, he did not move afterying down.


    His breath was close to her and she could feel his strong heartbeat. As the pace of his breathing


    slowed down, he wrapped his arm around her waist abruptly; like the way he would naturally pull her


    into his arms back when they were in 25 love.


    She opened her eyes and dazedly thought back to the past. After a while, tears began to gather in her


    eyes, while the man behind her fell deeply into sleep.


    She lifted his arm off of her and sat up, before wiping the tears in her eyes as she studied Elliot while


    he wasgc asleep.


    Her gaze lowered to his chest and she suddenly felt the urge to see the wound on his chest. She


    reached out and unbuttoned his shirt.


    As soon as she unbuttoned the first one, he scowled and instinctively shoved her hands away23


    forcefully.

    She looked at him dazedly and thought to herself, ‘but he’s asleep! How can he be so alert when he


    doesn’t even know who touched him? Has he always been so alert to others’ touch? But if that’s the


    case, how did he manage to be intimate with Zoe?’


    She sank into depression at theza thought.


    She had never been with any other man apart from him, so she couldn’t tolerate the fact that he had


    been with another woman. She couldn’t possibly ept a wed rtionship, even when his heart still


    beat for her.


    She sat dazedly as tears scrolled down her face uncontrobly. She knew that she would easily get


    emotional because of the pregnancy, so she had been trying to remain calm to counter the effect of her


    hormones; she never expected that Elliot would be able to break her with35 ease.


    As though he had sensed something, Elliot opened his eyes abruptly.


    Avery didn’t have the time to adjust herself and so he caught sight of her in such a difited state.


    “What’s wrong, Avery?” Startled, he sat up hastily before he was fully awake and reached out to wipe


    away her tears. “Why are you crying?”


    Embarrassed, she stopped crying and came up with an excuse. “I wanted to see your wound, but you


    shoved me away.”


    “I’m sorry. I was asleep,” he said, before unbuttoning his own shirt. “The wound isn’t that good to look


    at.”


    She saw his exposed wound the next moment and she felt as though she was being mocked by the


    hideous wound.


    Avery reached her fingers to touch it.


    He shivered slightly and grabbed her hand. “Don’t touch it. It doesn’t hurt anymore.”


    She retracted her hand from his and scolded, “you are a madman! If you died back then, even if your


    families and friends didn’te looking for trouble, they would be certain that I was the one who killed


    you! I could have been condemned for life!”


    He studied her reddened eyes and pursed his lips.


    He acted on impulse at the time because he was provoked. He loved Avery so much, and yet she


    wanted to kill him. He felt that there was no longer any meaning in life and thought that it would be


    better to die and be free.


    “Are you ming me for wanting to kill you?” Though Elliot didn’t say anything, Avery had guessed


    what he was thinking and retorted, “what I think is my own business. It doesn’t count as long as I don’t


    act on it!”
