When His Eyes Opened (full chapter)

Chapter 908

Chapter 908 If only his father was an ordinary father like any other, he would not have become Elliot Foster, known for being ferocious and cruel.
Avery stared at him dazedly, unable to say a word.
She had never imagined that behind his seemingly successful life, hid such a miserable past. She had thought that she had it hard enough after her father’s affair, her parents’ divorce and being bullied by her step-mother, she hadn’t expected that Elliot had it worse than her.
Her misery was on the outside and everyone knew about it; whereas his could only be hidden away within his heart.
“Don’t look at me like that, Avery.” He scowled. “I don’t need your pity.”
She shook her head. “I’m not pitying you. I am just thinking if we would have saved all the trouble if only you had told me this earlier.”

They felt comfortable when she tried them on at the time, but she just realized they didn’t fit after walking some distance in them. It was just like how a couple would attract one another with their strengths, before finally realizing each other’s’ shortcomings in the long run.
“Avery, do you really think that I am a fickle man?” He asked.
“Believe it or not, Elliot, your absence would have saved me from ninety percent of the pain and trouble I’ve suffered so far,” Avery said with certainty, “Of course, the kids are exceptions.
