When His Eyes Opened (Avery and Elliott)

Chapter 962

Mike heard the meaning behind her words, and he brutally shattered her illusion, “No matter where he’s going, it’s

impossible that he’s going to Sierra University. Why would someone as high and mighty as him willingly share the

secrets to his success with a bunch of strangers? Take a look online and you’ll see that he’s never accepted many

interviews. Besides, he’s a man of a few words. Do you really think that he could stand up on stage and give a

lecture?”

Mike’s words woke Avery up from her dream.

“I know Elliot. Why the heck am I harboring such delusions?!” thought Avery.

Her cheeks flushed with embarrassment, and Mike did not continue to make fun of her.

“How about I give Chad a call and ask him about it? Maybe he really is going to Mount Sierra?” Mike stopped

making fun of Avery, but he could not stop himself from making fun of Elliot.” Mount Sierra is a nice place. They’ve

got beautiful mountains and fresh air. It’s a great place to go on vacation. Maybe he’s just saying he’s on a business

trip but is actually going to Mount Sierra on vacation?”

Avery’s temples began to ache. “Whether he’s there on business or pleasure, it’s got nothing to do with me. I don’t

want to know where he’s going. Don’t ask Chad, and stop talking about it.”

She peeled a hard-boiled egg and placed it on Mike’s plate. “What time is your flight? I’ll take you to the airport,”

Mike asked after taking a bite of the egg. “I haven’t even bought my ticket yet!” Avery lowered her gaze and said,

“My mind’s a mess. I’m not prepared at all. I was planning on going back to the office today.” Seeing her miserable

face, Mike comforted her and said, “Mount Sierra’s a great place. It’s not open to the public, so it’s cut off from the

rest of the world and is especially peaceful. Treat it as a one-week retreat!”

“What do you take me for? Do I look like someone who wants to be cut off from the world? If there’s no internet

there, then I’m leaving right away.”

“How could they not have internet? All the attendees of that training course are company presidents. You might not

die without an internet connection, but they definitely won’t be able to handle it,” Mike teased.

“I can’t handle not having an internet connection either. I need to video call the kids every day.

“Alright, don’t be sad. A week will fly by.” “I guess. I’ll go pack my things now.” Avery put her knife and fork down,

finished her glass of milk, then returned to her room. Once she left the dining room, Mike pulled out her phone and

texted Chad: (Where’s your boss going on his businessed trip?) Chad was busy at the moment and did not see

Mike’s text. Soon after, Mike drove Avery to the2e airport.

Mike’s phone rang when they arrived. It was a call from the office telling him he needed to head over right away.

“Go ahead! i’ll be fine.” Avery took her suitcase from him. She was completelyf2 calm.

She would not have felt as melancholic if the vice president had called her the day before to tell her about this.

Mike reached out and stroked her head. “Call me when you land. Come home if you really can’t get used to things

there. You don’t need to stay there all week. The vice president isn’t your father, you don’t have to do anything that

makes you unhappy just because he tells you4e to.” Avery could not help but laugh. “Thanks for making me feel

better. Don’t do it like this again, though.” The vice president had worked for her father for a long time. He used to

be a lowly manager, but he made some great contributions during the rebuilding of the4e company. After Mike

watched Avery enter the waiting lounge, he left the airport. He drove the car in the direction of the office. He got a

call from Chad while he was on the98 way. “I’ve been busy all day! Why are you asking about Mr. Foster?” Chad was

holding his phone in one hand and a glass of water in the other and took a sip. “It wasn’t me. Avery was the one

who asked.” Then, Mike asked, “Why isn’t your boss taking you along with him on his trip?”
