When His Eyes Opened (full chapter)

Chapter 1052
Avery sensed that Elliot must not have fallen asleep yet. He was so furious. How could he have fallen asleep?
At that moment, when she entered his room, he must have heard her. She walked over to the bed She was thinking that if he was not going to say anything, she would lie down next to him and sleep together with him.
After running about the entire day, she was rather tired too.
Just when she sat by the bed and was about to get in bed, his angry and low voice came through.” Get out!”
“I’m not leaving.” Avery got in bed.
Not only did she get in bed. She uncovered the covers and laid down next to him. Before he could do anything, she hugged his body tightly.
His body tensed. His breathing got heavy as if he was about to erupt the next second.
“Elliot, I’m sorry. I was wrong. I know where I went wrong.” She buried her face in the pape of his neck and softened her tone. “I saw the light show that you prepared for me. I also saw the ring.”

Her words seemed to have agitated him once more, after calming down with much difficulty.
He pushed her away and roared, “Don’t touch me!” “.
She was stunned for a while before hugging him tightly once again.
“Elliot, I have never doubted your feelings for me.” Avery showed him her heart. “I have never doubted my feelings for you too. From the very beginning, you were the only person I loved If I knew that you were going to propose to me tonight, I would surely have gone to see you first.”
Elliot’s chest was heaving rapidly. His breathing turned heavier, but he did not say a single word. His head hurt. His body temperature did not seem normal either.
Avery was clinging onto him like a vine. He found it harder to breathe.
He did not push her away anymore, because he knew that even if he pushed her away, she would continue clinging to him.
“Elliot, I didn’t answer your call because my phone was dead in my bag. I didn’t know it ran out of battery,” Avery rambled on, explaining to him, “I never forgot our date. I was planning to look for you after Adrian felt better, but he kept vomiting. I couldn’t bear to leave.”
When she mentioned Adrian, Elliot’s emotions erupted once again.
“Elliot, please don’t get angry.” She nestled herself in his arms faced him. “I only
wanted you to know that I wasn’t late on purpose. No matter what happens in the future, I will put you first.”
His huge hands were planning on pushing her away at first, but after what she said, he caved in.
What he always wanted was simple: for her to care for him.
She buried her face in his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat. She felt extremely relieved. As long as he did not push her away, she would not let him go.
She really seemed to have realized that she did wrong. She seemed to have taken his love for granted. They had already agreed to a date that night. How could she have lied to him and arrived so late?
