When His Eyes Opened

Chapter 520 Avery wanted to say something, but she was shocked by the glistening tears and undisguised vulnerability in Elliot’s eyes.

“Elliot…”

When she could not help but speak up, his name was what escaped her lips.

She wanted to ask him what was35 wrong.

However, Elliot wrapped his large hand around her arm and pulled her into his arms before she could say another word.

Avery supported her weight with her arms as her long lashes fluttered.

Their faces were only inches away from each other.

She could see the brokenness in his eyes even more clearly now.

“What’s wrong, Elliot?” she asked in an unintentionally gentle voice as her heart clenched tightly in her chest.

“I dreamt that you left me.” Elliot’s Adam’s apple bobbed in his throat and his voice was hoarse. “You ran off with another man.”

Avery felt a lump in her throat. She could not speak.
