Elliot looked troubled. He said to everyone, "She has a very low alcohol tolerance and goes berserk once she is drunk. Not only will she swear and scold, but she will also flip tables. If you can bear the consequences…I'll let her raise her glass to you all?"Avery immediately raised her wine glass in cooperation."Hey! Hey! Forget about it! We haven't seen each other in a long time! We finally are able to gather to drink. Avery, place your glass down!" One of them sternly said.Avery timidly placed her glass down.The waiter began to serve food. Soon, the table was filled with food.Avery was famished, so once the dishes were served, she immediately said, "Everyone, the food has been served. Let's feast! Help yourselves!"Then, she picked up her utensils and took a piece of meat to eat.Everyone had a good level of living quality. They were used to eating expensive meat and seafood, but when they saw Avery only going for the expensive meat, they were still a little uncomfortabl
On the way back, the driver asked, "Miss Tate, where are we heading to?""My house." Avery had a full meal, so she was rather sleepy at that moment. She looked at her phone to see if there were any new messages.Mike sent her a few screenshots taken with the drone.[Mike: We mainly scouted the first target area this morning. We found seven units that placed red objects outside their windows. I checked each of them. I didn't find your patient. Will continue in the afternoon!]Avery did not expect that Mike would work so quickly. She replied, [Thank you.][Mike: Are you finally up? I heard that you spent the night at Elliot's last night. Where are you now? If you're still at Elliot's, I'll go there for a free meal!][Avery: I'm not at his house. A group of terrible people came to his house today. I chased them away.][Mike: F*ck. Are you that fierce? They are still his guests!][Avery: Is this your first day knowing me? It's because I knew that they were not good people. Also, on
An hour later, the driver picked Elliot up from the airport.Once Elliot got in the car, the driver asked, "Mr. Foster, where to?"Elliot rubbed the area in between his brows. He pondered for a while before saying, "To the office!"The driver said, "Okay."After driving off, the driver looked at Elliot's face through the rearview mirror. Coincidentally, Elliot saw him doing that, so he asked, "What's going on?""Mr. Foster, when I was sending Miss Tate back, she was talking to someone on the phone. They were in a fight." The driver hesitated for a while before saying to Elliot, "The person on the other end said that you didn't propose to Miss Tate. You missed out on a step. Miss Tate was so furious her face flushed. She even hung up on the other person."Avery constantly bickered that way with Mike, but it was the first time the driver had witnessed this, so he thought that Avery was feeling extremely aggrieved.On top of that, the driver exaggerated his words, which caused Elli
In the evening, at the Starry River Villa. During dinner, Mike told Avery his plans for the outing on Memorial Day."Why are you telling me this? I'm not going with you anyway," Avery said calmly."I know you're not coming with us. I'm telling you because I'm taking Hayden along," Mike explained, "Will you let Hayden come with us?"Avery looked at Hayden. "Do you want to go play with them? Do you have a holiday?"Hayden said, "I've already agreed to them."Avery was speechless. Mike looked smug. "Since you have nothing to say, I'm taking Hayden out on Memorial Day. Layla said that she is going out with Eric. As for Robert, I wanted to take him along, but Mrs. Cooper disagreed."Avery placed her utensils down and swept all of them a gaze. "What is the meaning of this? Are you really leaving me home alone?""Didn't you want to spend time with Elliot alone?" Mike teased, "Shouldn't you be happy?""I wasn't serious. He might not even be free on Memorial Day." Avery felt a little
Avery was stunned. "Are you sure?"Mrs. Cooper smiled widely. "Hmm, don't worry. I will take care of Robert. I will make sure he doesn't fall sick.""Why did you change your mind suddenly?" Avery felt something was off. "If you were to take Robert out, I would be home alone."Mrs. Cooper said, "Get Master Elliot to come and be with you! I've already told Mike."Mrs. Cooper left.Avery returned to her room and called Elliot."Elliot, do you have any plans on Memorial Day?"On the other end of the line, Elliot clearly had not thought about this matter. His tone was rather laidback. "Memorial Day is not here yet, right?""It's in two days. Mike is going to take Hayden and Robert out to play. Eric will be taking Layla scuba diving. I thought I was the only one who hasn't planned for the holidays yet." Avery sounded a little sad. "I never thought that you haven't planned for it yet. Don't tell me you'll still be busy preparing for the wedding on Memorial Day?"Elliot did not answer
"Go and check if there is a man called Adrian by Nathan's side." Elliot's tone was cold without any warmth. "If there is…" Elliot's words were stuck in his throat. Adrian was Shea's twin. He should be Foster's young master. Although he might not be liked by his father, a comfortable life was guaranteed.Elliot thought about how he took over his name, family, and life, but at that moment, he even wanted to kill him to ensure that his reputation and life would not be affected.Was that too cruel?"Mr. Foster, if this man is there, what should I do?" The bodyguard on the other end of the line asked, "Please tell me what to do."Elliot was silent for a while. He swallowed his saliva. "Make him disappear from the face of the earth."Since he knew that he was going to hell, he was going to be as selfish as he could! God dealt him a bad set of cards. If he was going to be merciful, he would never win!At the Starry River Villa, Avery came out of the shower feeling extremely nervous.
At Elliot's mansion. It was 15 minutes past midnight.Elliot came out of the shower. He was quite busy working that day, so he did not head over to Avery's. He had some wine in the evening, so his head was rather dizzy at that moment, but he was not sleepy.He decided to propose to Avery on the Memorial Day weekend, but he had not even picked the venue. He did not understand romance. Avery did not demand much from him in this department, so he had missed out on this. He looked at his phone and found his photos. He looked at an album. It was all the buildings he had designed.He wanted to propose to Avery in a building that he had designed. It was romantic that way.The next day, at a property sales department, Nathan brought his eldest son, Peter to look at properties.They moved out of their rented place the day before and moved into a hotel. Staying at the hotel was not a long-term solution, on top of that, Elliot only gave them one and a half million, they would surely not
Nathan was so furious his face flushed. He almost yelled, "Your uncle is my son!"At that moment, Peter nudged him with his elbow."Mr. Foster, my father has a bad temper. Please don't argue with him. I'm only afraid he might use force on you. My father is not capable of anything else, but he is quite good at fighting," Peter reminded Cole kindly, "If you don't believe me, you can ask your father."Cole was intimidated. At that moment, he did not have Elliot's support, so he did not dare to go up against others.If not, and he was beaten up, he had to bear it.He timidly left the sales department and took his phone out to make a call to his father.When Henry heard that his son was being bullied by an ex-driver of the Fosters, his blood boiled!"Get him to wait there! I'm coming to see him right now!" Henry said and hung up the phone.Cole returned to the sales department, humiliated by the fact that Nathan swiped his card to buy the unit that he had his eyes on.When Nathan h
