When His Eyes Opened By Simple Silence

Ben froze. His expression darkened as he clenched his fists.

Just as he was about to push through the door to the private room, Chelsea grabbed onto his arm.

“Ben! No!”

“Why not?!” Ben gritted out, “not only am I going in, I’m calling Elliot too so that he can see who this woman truly is!”

“See who she truly is, and then what? What about the baby she is carrying? According to my knowledge, Elliot wants to keep the baby. Tell Elliot about this after Avery gives birth.”

Chelsea’s words had convinced Ben to suppress his anger.

‘‘That’s right! That baby!’’ He thought, ‘’without the baby, I wouldn’t show Avery mercy! What she said just now was pure venom! Not only can I not stand to hear it, Elliot might just kill her if he heard it himself!’’

However, in order to ensure that the baby was delivered safely, Ben had to pretend that he didn’t know a thing and keep it a secret from Elliot. If he told Elliot about this, there was a great chance that the baby would not be born into the world.
