Chapter 458

When His Eyes Opened by Simple Silence

“Big Brother, do I have my own identification card?” Shea asked.

“Why are you asking about this out of the blue?” Elliot responded.

“Because everyone has their own identification cards and I want it, too.”

“You do, but it’s a 25 home.”

“Oh… Can you give it to me when we go home later?” Shea smiled.

“Why do you need it?” Elliot helped her find an empty9c seat.

“It’s my identification card, so of course I should keep it.” Shea opened her purse and took out a brand-
new phone. “Big Brother, I bought a new phone. I can make calls from now on.”

“???” Elliot looked up at the23 bodyguard.

The bodyguard immediately explained, “Miss Shea bought it when she went shopping yesterday. She
even registered a sim card with Mrs. Scarlet’s identification card.”

Shea had changed drastically and Elliot was slightly taken by surprise. Feeling proud of her progress, he
said, “Shea, you can go ahead and get a sim card with your own identificationza card.”

“Okay! When will we go home, Big Brother?”

She couldn’t wait to go35 home.

“We need to at least wait until lunch time to head home. Don’t worry, shea, your identification card is safe
with me.”



Shea nodded and switched on her phone. “Big Brother, can you teach me how to use my phone?”

“Sure,” Elliot responded with patience.

“Stop staring already, Avery! Your eyes look like they are about to pop out of your sockets.” Mike waved
his hand in front of Avery.

Avery looked away awkwardly.

Elliot was teaching Shea how to use her phone and he seemed very sincere and patient at it. It had been
very long since Avery last saw him behaving in such a gentle manner, so she couldn’t help but stare.

She took a sip of water from her glass to try and conceal the panic on her face.

“Why hasn’t Eric arrived?” Mike looked at the time. “He should be sitting next to you, right?”

Avery nodded. “What did you all do yesterday in the mansion? Did you have fun?” Mike refilled her glass
after she had finished the water.

“I was sleeping most of the time.”

“Oh? Have you eaten anything?”

“I did. I had spicy chicken soup.” Avery’s stomach rumbled at the memory of how tasty the spicy chicken
soup was.

She had her breakfast earlier, but vomited within ten minutes of finishing it. Had it not been for Tammy’s
wedding, she wouldn’t have come. The morning sickness of her pregnancy this time had rendered her
helpless.

“I talked to Chad last night,” Mike lowered his voice as he leaned towards Avery, “I said that I’ve never
seen you going on a diet before and you don’t seem to be in love with someone, but still, you refuse to



eat… Do you know what Chad says?”

Avery’s heartbeat sped up at the mysterious expression on Mike’s face.

“He said that women lose their appetite when they are pregnant. His sister was pregnant a while back
and she was acting exactly the way you are right now! His sister vomited no matter what she ate…”

Before Mike could finish, Avery covered her mouth and gagged.

Mike was instantly shocked.

“Mom!” Startled, Layla screamed.

Hayden immediately picked up the tissue box and handed a piece of tissue paper to Avery.

Elliot heard Layla’s scream from a distance and immediately looked over. When his dark, brooding eyes
landed on Avery, he couldn’t help but move his legs towards her.

‘Why did Layla scream just now? What’s happening with Avery?’ He thought. “I’m fine. Don’t worry.”
Avery did not vomit in the end and the nausea subdued almost immediately, but the way she was looking
at Mike was slightly guilty.

Mike had already realized what was happening, as the looks in her eyes had betrayed her.

She was pregnant.

The staff in the wedding venue contacted a doctor swiftly, and Avery said awkwardly, “I’m sorry, but I’m
fine.”

The staff confirmed a few more times that she was fine, before leaving.



Elliot had been standing beside her the entire time, and was observing her at the moment. Because of
the makeup she was wearing, Elliot couldn’t tell her expression.
