When His Eyes Opened (full chapter)

Chapter 986

Once the call was made, it went through, but there was no answer.

If Ben saw that Elliot was calling, he would definitely pick up the phone.

Elliot was even more certain now that Ben was in trouble!

Just as he was about to leave and look for Ben, he received a text from him.

[I can’t talk right now, Elliot.)

After Elliot saw the text, he immediately sent a reply: (What’s the situation right now? Are you in danger?]

Ben: [I’m not in danger. Give me a little more time. I’ll be back tomorrow.) Elliot read the text message, pondered

for a moment, then responded: (Alright.] Over at the Starry River Villa, Layla brought over her finished homework

for Avery to check. “Why hasn’t Daddy come by today, Mommy?” Layla asked softly. “Do you want him to come

over?” Avery asked with a smile as she flipped through her daughter’s homework Layla sighed and said, “Hayden

doesn’t like him. I’d be betraying him if I said I liked Daddy.” “How could you think that, Layla?” Avery turned to her.

“Whatever is going on between Hayden and your father is between them. You can express it freely if you like your

father, just don’t do it in front of your brother. That way, Hayden won’t be upset, and you won’t have to keep your

feelings for your father hidden.”

A sweet smile appeared on Layla’s face. “You’re so smart, Mommy! I’m your daughter, but why am I not as smart

as you?” “Who said you’re not smart? You’re much smarter than I am. I wasn’t as smart as you when I was your

age!”

“I love you so much, Mommy! I don’t want to get married when I grow up! I want to be with you forever.”

“Did what your father said yesterday affect you? You’re still young, Layla. It’s not the time to think about marriage

yet. All you have to do now is be happy and stay healthy. We’ll talk about the future later.” Avery stroked Layla’s

head. “Your writing is getting better and better. I commend you.” “Hayden said I write well, too. He said he’ll buy

me a present as a reward once he gets his prize money.” Layla’s face was filled with anticipation. “I already know

what I’m going to ask for.” “Prize money?” Avery was stunned for a moment. “Did your brother join some kind of

competition at school? Why didn’t I hear about it?” “Not right now! Hayden said it’s in two months. I don’t know

what competition it is, but he said he’ll definitely win the prize money.” At this point, an expression of deep

admiration

appeared on Layla’s face, “Hayden’s amazing. I want to marry someone like him when I grow

up.”

Avery gave her a light tap on the head, then said, “Didn’t you just say that you wanted to be with me forever? Have

you changed your mind already?” Layla burst into laughter. Robert was awakened by the noise. Hearing their

laughter, he let out a silly chuckle as well. “Robert’s awake!” When Layla heard Robert, she immediately picked him

up from the crib. “I want to take Robert out to play, Mommy!”

“Let me change his diaper first.” Avery put down Layla’s homework CyJ-S[tj planned to take Robert over.

However, Layla placed Robert on the couch, then volunteered and said, “I’ll change his diaper! Something as simple

as that is nothing to me!” After Layla experly changed Robert’s diaper, she placed him into his troller and pushed

him out of the house.

The bodyguard grabbed the baby’s travel bag and followed behind the siblings. A moment later, Layla stopped in

her tracks. There was a man who was walking in their direction with a large dog on a leash. The dog had its black

eyes fixed on Robert. “Woof! Woof! Woof!” The dog suddenly began to bark.

In a panic, Layla planned on leaving with Robert. At that moment, Robert let out an adorably fierce cry from the

stroller, “Woof! Woof!: Layla pushed the stroller and rushed back home. “Mommy! Robert spoke!” Layla told Avery

the news in surprise. “Robert spoke just now!”
