When His Eyes Opened By Simple Silence

Chapter 123

Avery reentered the bedroom with a first aid kit in her hand.

She knelt down by Elliot’s legs and began to undress his wounds.

His injuries were more severe than she had imagined.

He noticed that her breathing had turned heavy.

“It looks worse than it is. It doesn’t hurt,” he said, his voice piercing through the silence.

He wanted to make her feel better, but she did not want his false consolation.

Avery poked his wound with her finger, causing Elliot to inhale sharply.

“Tell me again how much it doesn’t hurt,” she said as she glared at him with reddened eyes.

Elliot placed his arms behind him, then narrowed his eyes and said, “It doesn’t hurt.”
