When His Eyes Opened (full chapter)

Chapter 906

Chapter 906 She had been in a hurry when she headed out in the morning. Without paying much attention to the weather, she grabbed a jacket and left her house; apart from that, she had not intended on staying outside for long. “Let’s grab a cup of coffee!” He suggested, “I don’t want to.” She had too much to eat at lunch. “Let’s just walk!”
“Sure.”
With his jacket on her shoulders, she could sense his scent penetrating into her as he occupied her thoughts
If the man next to her wasn’t Elliot, she would definitely not remain out in the cold wind. “You have misunderstood me the last time we spoke on the phone,” he said, breaking the silence. “I didn’t mention Shea to evade the topic. I was sad that you said that.” Avery’s heart settled down at his low, husky voice, though she might have argued with him had he mentioned this on the phone.
“Why did you mention Shea then? Elliot, we aren’t kids anymore and I don’t enjoy guessing around.” She raised her leg and kicked at a small rock on the roadside. She had forgotten that she was wearing heels and stumbled, so she frantically grabbed onto his arm to steady herself and he immediately wrapped his arm around her.

Their faces were inches away from one another, close enough to easily read the emotions in each other’s eyes.
“Are your feet okay?” He swallowed hard and asked in a hoarse voice.
She immediately shoved his arm away and shook her head after regaining her balance.” Should be.”
“Let’s go get coffee.” After a moment of hesitation, he started looking around for a cafe.
“I don’t want coffee, Elliot.” She stood still and stared at his back. “If this was the past and you wanted coffee when I didn’t, I might have compromised, thinking that I can make you happy by obeying you on small things like that; but now, I don’t want to obey you against my will any longer.”
He was stunned by her words.
The reason he insisted on getting coffee was not because he actually wanted coffee, but because he didn’t want her to be exposed in the cold or stumble on her feeted again.
There was merely a meter between the two, which felt neither distant nor close. She did not walk towards him, and neither did he approach her. The wind was howling as though it was mocking the dilemma they werele in.
