"You don't have to force yourself to smile at me, it's really unnecessary." Eric let Elliot relax, "You are too polite to me, and I won't dare to come in the future."
"Heh…" Elliot chuckled, "Avery said to treat you as her younger brother, I and she are husband and wife, and her younger brother is my younger brother, so…"
"No need. I can be Avery's younger brother, but I don't want to be your younger brother." Eric refused decisively.
Elliot was a little angry, but after thinking about it, he was relieved.
As long as Eric recognizes Avery as a sister, it doesn't matter whether he recognizes his brother or not.
After dinner, after everyone was seated, Layla couldn't help but ask her mother, "Mom, is honeymoon fun?"
Avery was stunned for a moment: "It's okay."
She and Elliot walked to the resort on the first day, looked at the beautiful seascape, and met tourists from Aryadelle. The tourists from Aryadelle recognized them and enthusiastically stepped forward to take a photo with them.
The next day, the two of them stayed in the room and did not go out.
Not to say it's fun, not at all.
Avery could stay with Elliot all the time, even if Elliot just looks at each other, he will not get tired of it.
But the way the two of them got along, children must found it boring.
"Then what did you guys do? Didn't show me the pictures." Layla complained.
Elliot answered first: "I didn't take many pictures with your mother. Because we stayed in the room and hardly went out."
"Ah?" Layla looked surprised. "Why don't you go out? Isn't it fun to be outside?"
"Layla, honeymooning is different from ordinary travel!" Mrs. Cooper came over with the soup and talked to Layla, "You will know when you grow up."
Layla looked up, more curious: "Why is it different?"
"Layla, eat!" Hayden stopped Layla from continuing to ask.
"Okay! Just eat, but I'm not very hungry." Layla said, picking up the bowl and taking a mouthful of rice.
"Eric, you can stay here for one more night tonight!" Avery saw that it was already dark, so she held back.
"My agent will pick me up later." Eric said, "I'm going to start work tomorrow."
"Okay! Since you're going to start working, I won't keep you. You can come and play next time during your break. Elliot and I welcome you."
Eric: "he told me. You better let him be normal!"
Avery: "…"
Elliot: "…"
The next day, in the morning, Layla and Robert went to school.
Elliot and Avery sent Hayden to the airport.
Today Hayden, Mike and Chad set off for Bridgedale together.
Arriving at the airport, Chad reluctantly said to Elliot, "Boss, I have sent you the copy of the recruitment notice. You can see if there are any changes to be made. If you can't find a suitable assistant, I can come back at any time."
Mike's hand was on Chad's back and twisted him.
Elliot: "You can go to work in Bridgedale with peace of mind. You don't have to worry about domestic affairs."
Chad was a little sad: "Okay. I will work hard. Although I have gone to Bridgedale and I will report to you every day."
Elliot: "You can report to Avery directly! The Tate Industries is under Avery's control."
An unexpected expression appeared on Chad's face: "Avery, are you going back to work too?"
"Well. You don't need to report to me every day. It's too troublesome. You can report once a week. I trust you." Avery said.
Chad: "OK."
Avery looked up at Elliot: "You send me a copy of the recruitment notice Chad gave you, and I have to hire an assistant."

Chapter 2382
"Would you like me to recruit for you?" Elliot replied, "I will push you when I see something suitable."
Avery: "I'll recruit myself! You have your own business to do, so don't focus on recruiting people."
Elliot: "Okay! I'll go back and take a look. If there's no problem, I'll send it to you."
Avery: "Um."
After coming out of the airport, Elliot asked the driver to take Avery to the company first.
Tate Industries's building and Sterling Group's building were not in the same direction.
The direction of the airport and their companies were in a triangle point.
It was Avery's temporary decision to return to work in the Tate Industries.
Some time ago, she was very confused about what she was going to do next.
She had two options.
One option was to do medical research, a career she preferred.
The second was to return to the Tate Industries to work.
Between the two, she hesitated for a long time and finally chose the latter.
The reason was very simple. If she chose the former, then she had no time to take care of the family.
After going through so many things, she felt that family was more important than career in her heart at this stage.
After the car arrived at the Tate Industries, Avery opened the car door and got out of the car.
"I'll pick you up from get off work at night." Elliot said, "If you tell me not to work overtime, you are not allowed to work overtime either."
Avery: "I promise not to work overtime. The company has hired a new professional manager. I'll talk to him later and see how it goes."
"Who hired it?" Elliot had been in surgery and recuperating for a while, and he still couldn't understand everything about his company, and even more about Tate Industries.
"Vice President Locklyn was recruited when he resigned. Vice President Locklyn's physical examination revealed that there was something wrong with his health. The doctor told him to recuperate at home, so he couldn't be under too much pressure. So Vice President Locklyn retired." Avery said, "They didn't follow you. Speaking of this, it is probably because you were not in good health at the time."
"Yeah. Send me a copy of his resume and I'll take a look at the person you hired." Elliot said, "Layla told me to leave the Tate Industries to her. Before Layla graduates from university, I can't let the Tate Industries go bankrupt."
Avery: "???" Her daughter Layla never said such a thing to her.
Layla was still so young, to say such a thing?
It's incredible.
"Are you sure she's not joking with you?" Avery asked.
"It shouldn't be a joke. Don't always treat your child as a child. If Layla wants it, we'll give it to her." Elliot said calmly.
"You give what she wants? What if she wants your Sterling Group? You give it too?" Avery teased.
"As long as she wants Sterling Group, of course I will give it." Elliot did not hesitate, "Mine is the child's."
Avery: "…"
According to Elliot's educational philosophy, it was really difficult to educate independent and hard-working children.
Avery: "Didn't we agree when we were in Kuoslaville that we can't spoil children like this?"
Elliot: "I didn't tell the children this, I just told you. Layla won't all leave. She will definitely save some for Robert and Hayden."
Avery: "but we can't instill in her the idea of 'ours is hers'."
Elliot: "We are dead, aren't our things theirs? I don't need to indoctrinate it!"
When His Eyes Opened Chapter 2383
Chapter 2383
Avery: "…"
"Avery, don't think wildly. When children grow up, they will definitely have their own thoughts. As long as they study hard and don't make major mistakes, we don't have to be so nervous." Elliot comforted Avery and left.
Mainly because Avery entered the company without waiting for Elliot to finish speaking.
After Avery entered the company, she immediately called the new vice president.
About a quarter of an hour later, the vice president rushed to Avery's office.
After the two met, Avery was stunned for a moment.
She didn't expect the newly recruited vice president to look so young.
In fact, the new vice president was in his forties, but his mental state and body maintenance were not bad, and he looked in his thirties at most.
"Hello, Ms. Tate. Let me introduce myself first. My name is Jesse Caldwell. The first time we met, I think you look much prettier than you look in the photos. " Jesse Caldwell introduced himself.
Avery politely said: "Hello, Mr. Caldwell."
"Don't be so polite! You can just call me Jesse." When Jesse Caldwell said this, the conversation changed, "You didn't invite me to your wedding with Elliot. To be honest, I'm a little sad."
Avery was startled for a moment: "Hahaha, I'm sorry! Our New Year's Day wedding was planned by a friend. Elliot and I didn't know we were going to have a wedding until New Year's Day."
Jesse Caldwell nodded: "I heard. So I'm not so sad anymore."
Avery: "Hahaha! I'll bring candy for you tomorrow."
Jesse Caldwell: "Thank you! I thought that Elliot transferred Chad to manage the Tate Industries's Bridgedale branch, so he wanted me to compete with Chad…"
"You think too much. Chad transferred his job because he needed to live in Bridgedale. You are not in a competitive relationship, you must unite." Avery said, "You can communicate with him more in the future. He works by Elliot's side. For many years, his ability is very good. I heard Vice President Locklyn said that you have been working abroad before, and now you choose to return to Aryadelle for the sake of your family. Vice President Locklyn told me that you are very good, so I can't wait to call you when I come to the company already."
"I don't really know Vice President Locklyn very well. He has inquired about me with many people in the industry. I think he is more sincere, so I came to try it out. My way of doing things and his ideas and concepts are actually very different." Jesse Caldwell said, "I took a look. The company has achieved the current status, relying solely on product upgrades, which is definitely not enough. I talked to the R&D and technology side, and now the development of drones has encountered a bottleneck. If you want a big breakthrough, yes it's very difficult. But the market is still good, so if we want to break through, we have to change our thinking.”
Avery nodded: "You show me your idea as a plan. We will have another meeting to discuss it with other executives at that time."
Jesse Caldwell: "Okay. Then I'll go to work first."
Avery: "Um."
After Jesse left, Avery turned on the computer and glanced at the office.
Norah used this office before, because the layout had changed a bit from when she used the office before.
But Avery didn't mind.
When Norah was in the Tate Industries, the Tate Industries developed very well.
Norah was still capable, but she was too ambitious and had a bad mind.
The greater the power, the greater the danger.
Avery finished looking at the office and regained her mind. She opened the bag and took out the thermos cup. Immediately took out the tissues, hand cream, portable alcohol and small snacks and put them on the table.
Maybe it's been too long since she went to work, and suddenly there was a sense of freshness.
After putting the bag away, she sprayed the desktop, computer, and mouse with portable alcohol.
After completing the disinfection work, she sat down and logged in to her work social account and email account.
She found Jesse's resume that Vice President Locklyn had sent to her before, and clicked it.
After reading the resume, she forwarded it to Elliot.
Then send him a message to urge: [you forward the email that Chad gave you to me, and I will look at the revision myself.]
After Elliot replied with an OK gesture, he forwarded the email to her.
When His Eyes Opened Chapter 2384
Chapter 2384
After sending the email to Avery, Elliot added: [Don't hire men.]
Avery: [? ? ?]
Elliot: [I recruit men, you recruit women. Fine?]
Avery: [..you are really careful!]
Elliot: [You say that, I'm not happy.]
Avery: [No gender discrimination in the workplace! As long as it is suitable, it can be male or female! Can we not be so rigid?]
Elliot: [Do you mind if I hire a female assistant?]
Avery didn't think about it, and replied: [Of course I don't mind! What's the point of that? Don't you also have a lot of beautiful female secretaries in your company? Do you think when did I ever mind? Not only the female secretary of your company is beautiful, but other female employees are also very beautiful. I wonder if your company's personnel are recruiting people from the perspective of beauty pageants?]
Elliot: [I don't know. I didn't ask for personnel. I'll go to the company to find personnel and ask.]
Avery: [No need! I'll just complain to you privately, how embarrassed you would be if you asked people like that! I think it may be that there are more people who send resumes to your company, so it is better to recruit beautiful and capable people.]
Elliot: [Maybe! I don't care about other personnel changes except for the people I want to use. I haven't seen so many beauties in my company as you said.]
Avery: [Quietly watching you pretend to be forceful.]
Elliot: [Since you don't mind me hiring a female assistant, would you mind if I take her on a business trip in the future? When Chad followed me, we often socialized and traveled together. You know it.]
Avery:[….]
Elliot: [What's the matter? Feel free to say what you have in mind. Since we are husband and wife, we should be honest.]
Avery: [Why don't you hire men!]
Elliot: [What about you? 😊😊😊]
Avery looked at the smiling expression he sent, and felt as if she was right in front of him, looking at him with that expression that looked like a smile but was actually threatening.
Avery opened the thermos cup, took a sip of warm water, and replied: [I will try my best to recruit women. If you have a good resume when you are recruiting, you can send it to me!]
Elliot: [OK.]
After negotiating with Elliot, Avery simply revised the recruitment notice.
The revised recruitment conditions have changed from 'men first' to 'women first'.
After revising the recruitment copy, Avery sent the copy to HR.
After receiving the personnel, HR immediately replied: OK, Ms. Tate, I will immediately go to major recruitment websites to publish. Do you accept internal staff transfer? There should be many employees who want to be your assistants.]
Avery: [Let's recruit first! See if you can find a suitable one.]
HR: [Good Ms. Tate.]
After a while, HR sent another message: [Ms. Tate, I heard that Mr. Foster is going to recruit assistants, isn't it?
Avery: [Yes! Who did you listen to?]
HR: [Listen to what the personnel say over there. Our two companies have been friends together before, so I added a friend from HR there.]
Avery: [Well, Chad has been transferred to Bridgedale, so he wants to hire an assistant. If you have a suitable candidate, you can push it.]
HR: [Okay. But if there is a suitable candidate, I will definitely recommend it to you first. If you think it is inappropriate, I dare not recommend it to Mr. Foster.]
Avery: [I recruit women, he recruits men.]
The HR was stunned for a moment, and then reacted: [Okay, I understand! hey-hey!]
Avery blushed in embarrassment. In fact, she was really not that careful.
But Avery really didn't want Elliot and the female assistant to go on business trips and so on.
When His Eyes Opened Chapter 2385
Chapter 2385
Afternoon.
The news of Elliot's recruitment of assistants had become a hot search.
Generally, people of such worth as Elliot would not recruit externally.
He needed assistants, he could be promoted from the inside, or he could dig his favorite talents in the circle. But he didn't.
The reason why the news of his recruitment of assistants was on the hot search was related to the treatment he offered to the assistants.
It is written on the recruitment notice that once hired, the annual salary starts at one million, and there is no ceiling. If you perform well, you will have the opportunity to acquire Sterling Group shares.
With such favorable conditions, who could not be moved by seeing it?
Although the hard requirements for Elliot's assistant were not low, there were still many qualified people.
As Avery said, the salary was good, and there were naturally countless talents to submit resumes.
"Elliot is hiring an assistant." After seeing the news, Norah raised a smile on the corner of her mouth.
"Didn't we know about this two days ago?" Sasha responded flatly, "Have you found the right person?"
"Well, I've talked a few times in the past two days, and there is one person who is quite suitable. I'll contact him now." Norah opened the address book and said to Sasha, "Elliot is recruiting assistants, and they must only be men. I'll see him. The male priority written on the request is the same as I thought. Just look for it according to the appearance and ability of his former assistant, which is right."
Sasha stood at the door of the kitchen because soup was being stewed inside.
Sasha: "If only all went well."
"Even if it doesn't go well, it's fine. His company has other positions to recruit. With my connections, it's not difficult to put someone in. It's just that it's more convenient if someone can be installed by his side." Norah said calmly. .
"Norah, you said you are such a smart person, even if you do something else, you will definitely make a lot of money. Why do you have to lick Elliot and Avery?" Sasha was a little puzzled.
The reason why Sasha looked for Haze was because there was no other way for Sasha to be a new person.
But Norah was different.
"Sasha, before I contacted Elliot, I did a good job. But no matter how good I do my job, I just make money for the boss, and I can only get a fixed income. That is absolutely not proportional to my efforts. What's so good about part-time work, I don't want to work anymore at all." Norah saw it through, "Being a good person, in the end, it's just a servant. It's better to take the risk and give it a shot."
Sasha: "Okay! Let's be more cautious this time. Even if we can't make money, we must not risk our lives. It's better to die than live!"
Norah: "Well. I'm measured."
The other side.
The Miss also saw the news that Elliot was recruiting assistants.
After seeing the news, she immediately clicked on the recruitment APP, found the recruitment information of Sterling Group's recruitment of assistant president, and carefully checked the recruitment requirements listed by the other party.
• Bachelor degree or above.
• ………..
• ……….....
……
The first rule directly rejected her from the door.
A layer of sweat broke out on her palms, if she submitted her resume, she would definitely be in vain, right?
If she didn't try it, how did she know it won't work?
Thinking of this, she bravely clicked on her resume, intending to optimize her resume.
An hour later, she checked the revised resume several times. After confirming that there was no way to change it, she took a deep breath and delivered the resume.
"Miss, Siena woke up. Did you take her to the kindergarten, or should I take her?" The mother-in-law pushed open the study door and asked from the door.
"I'll take her there!" The Miss closed the computer and walked out of the study.
"Miss, if the school accepts her, why don't you let her go to school! She promised me that she would never tear the scar off her face, and she can definitely do it." The mother-in-law pleaded softly, "In this state, no one will doubt that Siena is Elliot's daughter."
When His Eyes Opened Chapter 2386
Chapter 2386
Miss nodded: "I know. The question now is whether Siena will be bullied by other children when she goes to school."
"If other children dare to bully Siena, she will definitely fight back. I have told her all about it." The mother-in-law said.
The Miss shook her head: "Fights are not allowed in school. I'll take Siena to school later and communicate with the teacher."
"Anyway, kindergarten doesn't learn much." Mother-in-law mainly focused on crispy, "She is used to playing with the children in the mountains, but now she is locked at home every day, which is really depressing. She used to sleep well. Yes, she goes to bed when she touches the bed. Now she can't sleep at night, and she always wakes up when she falls asleep. I'm really afraid she'll be suffocated."
"I know she's not happy. But before everything is clear, I can only feel wronged first." The Miss said helplessly, "There is absolutely no way for people to live as they please, not only her, but many people in this society."
"Well. Be careful on the road." The mother-in-law said.
After the Miss came out of the room, she walked in front of Siena, took her hand, and led her out.
The weather was not very good today, the clouds were dense, and the sky looked like it was about to collapse. And there was a cold fog all around.
The mother-in-law surrounded her face with a scarf, revealing only a pair of big, crystal clear eyes.
The kindergarten was near the community where they lived, and they could walk there.
Since the last time Elliot sent someone over, they have changed to a more remote and older community.
The kindergartens near the community were naturally not very good. But for them, safety came first and quality of life came second now.
"Miss, I heard what you said to my mother-in-law just now." Siena raised her head and glanced at the Miss, "Miss, you are a good person."
The corner of the Miss's mouth rose, but she couldn't laugh: "Siena, you're also a good girl. Bad people are not so easy to distinguish. You are still young, you just need to take care of yourself, eat when you should eat, sleep when you should sleep, and if you can go to school, go to school well. Don't think too much about the rest."
"Mother-in-law told me When I grow up, help my mother to avenge." Siena will not dare to tell her mother-in-law what she said to the Miss, "But I have never seen my mother. Who am I going to seek revenge for? I can't win against anyone!"
"Yeah. Now I don't even know who the enemy is, how to take revenge." The Miss sighed, "I am also looking for the murderer of your mother."
Siena: "Miss, why are you helping my mother?"
"I am not helping your mother. Also I won't help your mother. I have nothing to do with your mother, and I even hate her a little bit." The Miss made no secret of her emotions, "Your mother stole the person I liked. Although your mother didn't do it on purpose, if she didn't Your mother, the person I like will definitely not reject me."
"Oh… miss, who is the person you like? Where is he?" Siena asked curiously.
The Miss gritted her teeth, took a deep breath, and opened her lips with trembling: "The night your mother died, he was also killed."
Siena's face was covered with a chill.
Other children at this age would not come into contact with the word 'death' so frequently.
But Siena not only knew death early, but also knew the cruelty of life.
The Miss brought Siena to the kindergarten and met the principal.
After seeing the scar on Siena's face, the principal of kindergarten was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Does she have any other problems besides the scar on her face?"
The Miss: "No other problem. She is very healthy and has a good personality. Rather quiet."
When His Eyes Opened Chapter 2387
Chapter 2387
The principal: "Okay. In this case, the child can enter our kindergarten. I will let the teacher communicate with the students in the class well, and the children should be able to accept Siena."
The Miss: "Let her try it out first. I'm afraid the child won't adapt."
"Yes. She can start trial reading today." The principal said enthusiastically, "You can pick up the child at 5 o'clock in the evening."
The Miss nodded, and then asked Siena: "Do you want to go to school now, or wait until tomorrow?"
Siena didn't want to trouble the Miss, so she said sensible: "I'll try it now!"
The Miss: "That's good. I'll pick you up at 5 o'clock in the evening. If I don't have time, your mother-in-law will also come to pick youup."
"Well. I see. Miss, go back!"
The Miss nodded: "If mother-in-law tells you, you must always keep it in your heart. If someone asks you about your oddity Strange questions, don't answer them. If there is anything that feels wrong, try to hide immediately, do you hear?"
"Siena: Miss, I understand."
……
In the evening.
Elliot went to the Tate Industries, picked up Avery, and prepared to go home.
"How do you feel on the first day of work today?" Elliot took Avery's hand and asked.
Avery: "I'm fine. The new vice president, Jesse Caldwell that Vice President Locklyn hired for me is not bad. Basically, he has considered everything and is quite frank."
Elliot: "I asked, this Jesse is very good at marketing."
"Yes. He told me that it is difficult for our company to make great progress in technological development now. The company didn't pay much attention to marketing before. He said that now we need to focus on technology and also on marketing. I asked him to make a plan, and it was done. Show me." Avery said, "I'm not really busy today, but I feel like the work time goes by so fast."
Elliot: "Well. That's why I like work."
"Me and work, which do you prefer?" Avery deliberately made things difficult for him.
Elliot didn't even think about it, and replied, "I work to make money, and I make money to spend for you and the children. Which do you think I prefer?"
"You didn't say that you work to make money. You work because you love your job." Avery chokes him.
Elliot: "The premise of my love for work is that work can create value."
"Oh. I think the value of this thing, can't just look at the benefits it generates. I think you accompany me and my children, than you work to make money and spend it for us, it makes me feel more sense." Avery put forward a different opinion, "Of course, you have been with us for a long time, and you have done a good job. I can feel that you have changed a lot and sacrificed a lot for us and this family."
"Avery, you are wrong. I never feel that I have made any sacrifices for you." Elliot clenched her hand tightly, "Even if there is a so-called sacrifice, I will do it willingly after weighing it."
"You speak now. It's getting sweeter and I can't even quarrel with you, it's really boring." Avery teased, "How are you recruiting assistants?"
"Personnel sent me some resumes submitted by women. As for mine Assistant, we haven't started screening yet." Elliot said, "I'll wait to see if those resumes are suitable for you."
"You just pass it to me, I'll read it myself!" Avery said, "This kind of trivial matter, I myself Just come."
"Okay, then I'll go home and accompany the children." When Elliot said this, his eyes softened a little, "I like to play with the children."
"Layla and Robert also like you. In the past, Layla always favored me, but now she has a flat bowl of water." Avery laughed dumbly.
When His Eyes Opened Chapter 2388
Chapter 2388
"She has a good bowl of water, why are you a little unhappy?" Elliot laughed, "Hayden is still unhappy!"
"Why am I unhappy. You have a good relationship with your children, don't I have more peace of mind? When the child is on vacation, you can take care of the child, and I can take it for granted." Avery couldn't help laughing, "You like taking care of children so much, I will give you an award at the end of the year: the Best Nurse Dad Award!"
"Thank you! There is no need for the award, the child is mine, and it is my responsibility and obligation to take care of the child." Elliot said calmly, "The child won't need us for long. Hayden doesn't need us anymore, we need him. Layla doesn't need us much anymore. If we weren't so strict with her, would you believe that she would go out to play as soon as she was on vacation? We went to our honeymoon this time, and she didn't bother Eric to stay with us. Does she play? If it hadn't been for the final exam, do you believe she actually wanted Eric to take her out to play?"
Avery didn't think much about it at first, but now hearing Elliot say it, she suddenly felt a little confused.
"That's why Robert still treats the two of us as treasures. If Layla had time to accompany him, he wouldn't play with the two of us." Elliot continued, "The child grows up very quickly. In a few years, When Robert go to elementary school, if he has good friends, he won't stick with us anymore."
"Why are you a little sad? You like to have children so much?" Avery teased, "You don't want to move out when you grow up and don't live with your elders. Is it? You are such a person yourself, why do you want the children to stick to us all the time?"
Elliot was speechless.
"It's still a long time before they grow up and move out! Don't think so much!" Avery saw that Elliot seemed really sad, so she comforted him seriously, "If the children are all move out and live separately from us, The two of us will be able to travel around the world!"
Elliot responded, "Let's think about it later! We haven't reached that stage yet."
"They're still with us now, you're so lost, if Layla is going to get married in the future, don't you have to cry?" Avery put her arms around his waist and stared at his face, "Husband, you still have me What! I won't leave you."
Elliot: "Well. Fortunately, I have you. Otherwise, I'd be so lonely when I'm old."
Avery: "Stay alone!"
Elliot: "…"
The two quarreled all the way, and when they got home, they stopped.
Dinner was ready, but Layla was doing her homework in the room, Robert pulled Elliot and asked Elliot to teach him to play checkers.
"Next time my brother comes back, I can play chess with my brother!" Robert explained why he wanted to learn checkers.
Elliot was moved by Robert, so he was successfully pulled away by Robert and went to teach Robert to play checkers.
Avery was hungry and couldn't wait for them, so she went to the dining room alone.
"Layla said she wasn't hungry, she said she'd eat after finishing her homework, so you don't have to worry about them." Mrs. Cooper brought dinner to the table, "Avery, how do you feel about going to work today?
"I didn't do anything, but I'm hungry faster than usual at home." Avery picked up the bowl and chopsticks and started to eat.
"Going to work will definitely make you a little tired. Even if you don't do anything, you have more things to think about." Mrs. Cooper said, "You eat more. You are already thin, so don't get thinner because you go to work."
"I will eat at noon today. There are quite a few. I'm sure I can't lose weight. Maybe after a period of work, I will gain weight." Avery doesn't care as much about her figure as in previous years, because her physique is not easy to fatten, and her eating habits better, "I don’t usually like to eat snacks, and I don’t like to overeat, so my weight has been maintained at a relatively stable number."
"Mrs. Cooper, Eric lived in our house two days ago. Did Layla make any noise to him?" Avery suddenly remembered this question and asked in a low voice.
Mrs. Cooper was stunned for a moment and replied, "No? I didn't see Layla being noisy. Layla is not noisy! Layla is very sensible now."
When His Eyes Opened Chapter 2389
Chapter 2389
"Well. I know Layla is very sensible. She is no longer a child, so I am suddenly a little worried whether she will have that kind of feeling for Eric." Avery expressed her concerns.
These words made Mrs. Cooper also worried.
"To be honest, I didn't think about it. But your worries are not unreasonable, Layla is really a big girl. Now children have access to the Internet earlier, and they will mature a little earlier than before. If you are worried, you can talk to Layla." Mrs. Cooper said.
Avery: "I don't know how to talk about it. Eric is so good, so many girls like him, including me, and I admire him very much. I'm afraid that Layla's age can't tell the difference…"
"Would you like to talk to Eric? I think Eric is a more measured person. If Layla confesses to him, he will definitely refuse." Mrs. Cooper said that, she was relieved, "You are from Eric. Benefactor, Eric will definitely not mess with Layla."
"I'm not worried that Eric will mess with Layla. Otherwise I wouldn't let Eric take Layla out to play before. I was afraid that Layla would be so Affecting my own life." Avery shook her head, "I don't want to think about this for now. It was Elliot who was suddenly a little sentimental today that the child will leave us when he grows up, so I will follow my wild thoughts."
Mrs. Cooper: "Why do you think about this?"
"Elliot has become more and more sentimental recently. Probably because he is getting older, he often needs me to coax him." Avery said this, the corners of her mouth raised, "I think he is quite cute like this."
"Seeing that your feelings are getting more and more better, I'm really happy for you." Mrs. Cooper said and was sincerely happy for them.
Avery thought for a few seconds and said, "Even when I was with him in the past, there would always be some messy pessimistic thoughts, but this time they're gone. This time I feel very at ease."
Mrs. Cooper: "It's good to be steadfast. It means that your hearts are settled down!"
…
Avery took a look at Elliot and Robert after dinner.
The father and son were so fascinated by the game of checkers that they had no time to pay attention to her.
So she went to her daughter's study to see how her daughter's homework was going.
Layla saw her mother come in and stretched while holding the pen.
Layla: "Mom, I have a lot of homework! I feel like I can't finish writing."
"Let's write after dinner!" Avery walked to the desk and glanced at her daughter's homework tonight.
There were still two papers not written.
"Mom, I can't eat it." Layla pursed her small mouth, "Uncle Eric said that I must do well in the final exam this time, and he would take me to play during the winter vacation."
Layla took the initiative to talk about Eric, which made Avery couldn't help but follow the topic and chatted: "Layla, mom knows you like Uncle Eric, but if Uncle Eric has a girlfriend, you can't stick to him like that."
Layla: "Uncle Eric said he's not looking for a girlfriend."
"He hasn't met the right one yet. Maybe one day he will meet the right one." Avery looked at her daughter's expression and had a bad premonition in her heart.

Chapter 2390
"Didn't he meet the right one yet? Let's wait until he finds a girlfriend!" Layla put her eyes back on the paper, "Mom, you are suddenly so serious!"
"Have you?" Avery was afraid that her attitude frightened her daughter, and she immediately laughed, "Mom just considers that your uncle Eric doesn't have much vacation, and you want to be with him every winter and summer vacation, so he won't have time to find a girlfriend at all. It had a big impact on him."
Layla pursed her lips.
"You also know that Uncle Eric's parents are forcing him to have a blind date. His family especially hopes that he will find a girlfriend soon and get married. After all, your Uncle Eric is not too young." Avery explained to his daughter patiently that the age gap between Eric and her.
"Mom, how can you think the same as those people? How old is Uncle Eric? He doesn't want to find a girlfriend or get married, so you can't force him." Layla looked at her mother again, complaining for Eric.
Avery smiled: "Baby, I didn't force him. I just told you about his situation. We don't force him, but his parents will still urge him. If you keep pestering him, what will his parents think? Don't you think you're delaying him too much?"
"I don't know his parents, so I don't care what they think! As long as Uncle Eric plays with me." Layla said nonchalantly.
"Layla, your mother is actually worried about you." Avery hesitated for a while, and then said what was in her heart, "You are not too young now, and your mother is afraid that you will have an extra-normal relationship with Eric."
"Mom, I like Uncle Eric, and I like to be with him. Because he is very kind to me, he listens to me in everything." Layla did not shy away from her liking for Eric.
Avery nodded, she understood her daughter's mood.
Eric was not only very kind to Layla, but also to Avery.
Just when Avery thought that she might be thinking too much, Layla said word by word: "Mom, when I graduate from college, and Uncle Eric hasn't found a girlfriend yet, then I'll marry him! What do you think?"
Avery: "…"
Layla: "Mom, don't you like Uncle Eric? How good Uncle Eric is! He is handsome and rich. The key is to be nice to others. He is not only good to me, he is also good to our whole family. Don't you want such a son-in-law?"
Avery: "!!!!!!"
Avery's whole portrait was struck by lightning after hearing her daughter say this.
Son-in-law…
Eric will be her son-in-law! Whoa, whoa, whoa!
She didn't know how Eric would react when he heard Layla's words.
But she was sure that if Elliot heard these words, it would be a blast!
"Mom, why are you in a daze?" Layla stretched her hand and pulled her mother's arm, and asked anxiously, "Mom, don't you want to scold me?"
Avery shook her head in a conditioned reflex.
Avery: "Of course mom won't scold you. You are at this age, and you don't understand a lot of things…"
"What do I don't understand? You married my father because my father likes you, and you like my father too? Then I like Uncle Eric, and Uncle Eric also likes me, why can't we get married?" Layla looked at her mother with a puzzled face.
"The age gap between you is too big." Avery gave the reason, "Also, your uncle Eric won't agree."
"Mom, let me ask you." Layla asked casually, "Auntie Gwen's age between Uncle Ben's age, It's quite big, right? Why didn't you object to the two of them being together?"
Avery: "…"
"Mom, don't you like Uncle Eric too? Then why don't you let me marry Uncle Eric?" Layla was puzzled, "If I marry Uncle Eric, aren't we relatives? Can't we be together forever?"
"Layla, you can say these things in front of your mother, but don't tell your father. Your father will be mad if he hears you say this. Maybe I will also run to find Eric for trouble." Avery said solemnly, "You have to focus on your studies now, it's still too early to get married!"
