When His Eyes Opened

At eight in the evening, the black Rolls-Roice slowly drove to Starry River Villa.

Mike heard movements and came out from the villa.

“Elliot, it’s late. What are you doing here?” Mike coldly jabbed, “Didn’t you say you’ll come by in the afternoon? It’s already dark. Is your afternoon different from others?”

Elliot looked up and said, “Is there any difference between me coming now and this afternoon?”

“Of course, there is. If you came in the afternoon, Avery would still be at home. Avery is not at home now.” Mike stood in the yard. He did not bother to open the gate. 

“I won’t welcome you in then.”

Elliot’s chest constricted tightly. 

“Where did she go?”

“You tell me first. What were you doing this afternoon? Why did you say you would come this afternoon, but didn’t appear?” Mike asked haughtily.

Elliot swallowed his saliva and said in a low voice, “Nora insisted on being discharged in the afternoon. I sent her back. Her family insisted that I stay for dinner, I can’t refuse them.”

“If her family asks you to stay for the night, you won’t be able to refuse them
