When His Eyes Opened

The huge room only had three of them. The atmosphere was rather strangely quiet.

The waiter left after serving the food.

Elliot pondered for a while. He was just about to say something when Avery jumped the gun and said something first because she was afraid that Elliot would make Hayden angry.

“Hayden, didn’t you say you were hungry? This restaurant is quite good. Have more food.”

Avery placed a huge pile of food in Hayden’s dish.

Hayden lowered his head and ate. He did not even look at Elliot.

Elliot picked up a ladle and scooped some soup for Avery. “When are you planning to return to Aryadelle?”

Avery did not want to talk to Elliot in front of Hayden because Hayden was extremely sensitive to Elliot. She was afraid that if any sentence of his would make Hayden unhappy, it would only deepen the rift between father anded son.

“Let’s eat first!” Avery lowered her gaze and took small mouthfuls.

Hayden was full. He placed his utensils down. “Mommy, I’m tired. I’ll go
