When His Eyes Opened By Simple Silence

Chapter 218 It was dinner time at Starry River Villa,

“Avery, Wesley came by to see you this afternoon,” Laura said with bright eyes. “He told me that he was going to settle down here in Aryadelle…”

Avery figured out what her mother was thinking from the grin on her face.

“Mom, I know you’re hoping I‘ll find someone to get married to soon, but please don’t pull that face while we are in public. Otherwise, people would think I’m desperate for marriage!” Avery pleaded. “I‘m still in my twenties. I‘m still young! This is the time I should be focusing on my career. Once I’m successful, men will be lining up to marry me.”

The smile on Laura’s face vanished.

“I‘m not pestering you... I just really think that Wesley‘s a great man. He took care of you the whole time you were abroad! Don’t you see how well he treats you?”

“Am I supposed to marry anyone who‘s good to me? In that case, Professor Hough was good to me, too!”

“Fine! Keep acting blind! Wesley really is a good man. You might never find someone like him again if you miss out now.”

“Can‘t you have a little more faith in me? There will be men who will be attracted to me in the future,” Avery said as she comforted her mother. “Besides, did you ask the children what they think? They don‘t want a stepfather.”

Avery shot a meaningful look at her children.

Layla cleverly expressed her opinion and said, “I don‘t want a stepfather, but I‘ll make myself accept anyone Mommy likes.”

It was clear that her daughter did not understand what Avery was trying to signal to her.

Avery pinned her hopes on her son.
