Ben was a little confused. "Since you had already told her that Ruby is dead, why is she still angry with you?" Elliot said, "Because | didn’t say that Ivy is dead." Maybe, if he had told her that Ivy had passed away, she would not be as mad.
At that thought, he remembered what Mike had told him. Mike had said that Ruby's and Ivy's existence humiliated Avery. She would always feel aggrieved. Only if Ruby and Ivy died, would the humiliation stop.
Mike thought that way. Would Avery feel that way, too? This was also one of the reasons why he insisted on heading to Ylore even if he knew that Avery was angry.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRuby deserved to die, but Ivy was innocent. How could children be responsible for the sins of their parents? If he and Avery disagree on this issue, he would listen to his inner heart.
It was six in the evening, and the sun was shining through the windows of Elizabeth Hospital. It was summer, and the days were longer.
Wesley arrived at the lab. He looked at Avery sitting on the bed.
"Avery, my mom made sdessert. | brought sfor you. Bring it hfor the children to try." Wesley walked over to Avery.
He was about to pass her the container with desserts in them, but he noticed her phone on the ground.
"Your phone has fallen. Why don't you pick it up?" Wesley found the situation strange. He picked her phone up and saw that the screen was cracked.
"Avery, your screen is cracked. If you don't use a phone cover, the screen will crack easily if you drop it." Wesley placed the desserts on the table. He said, "Your back screen has cracked too. You either change the screen now or buy a phone cover first then change it tomorrow." Avery muttered her agreement but said nothing else.
Wesley immediately looked at her face.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe tears on her face had already dried up, but her eyes were still wet.
"Avery, what happened?" Wesley immediately took stissues and passed them to her. "What happened?" Avery's vision was even blunder after she woke up. She could only roughly make out that Wesley had passed her something.
"Wesley, | can't see." She choked up ;b#= SIS: suppressed her emotions. "I think it is a side effect from the last surgery. | thought that it would get better with medication. | didn't think that | wouldn't be able to see anything when | woke up this afternoon." Wesley was stunned for a few seconds. Then, he took stissue paper and wiped her tears away. "Don't be afraid, Avery.
Don't worry. You can't see things now. This is only temporary. I'll take you to see an ophthalmologist. They will surely find a way to restore your sight." Avery was depressed. She gritted her teeth and said, "Elliot and I... have no future together." She could not bear to say break up or divorce, because they had split up before. They had also gotten divorced. Every tthey had split up, it was painful, but none of them was as painful as this time.
She had been healthy all the other times they had broken up, but this time, she had lost her sight, and she was plunged into darkness.
She experienced more pain from the psychological torture she was going through than from losing her sight.
