When His Eyes Opened By Simple Silence

Chapter 42

Avery wondered if she would be his mistress if that woman was still alive.

If she was dead, then was she her replacement?

Either way, it made her heart ache and left a bad taste in her mouth.

“Tell me, what exactly do you like about Cole?” he asked as he pulled out his cigarette box. His face was the epitome of an enigma.

“I don’t like him anymore,” Avery said coldly.

It was childish, but Elliot was always losing his temper over the smallest things.

If she did not retaliate, she would lose her mind.
