Upon saying that, her client immediately stood up.
“Is Elyette here? Miss Tate, go get him then!” The client suddenly said, “I wouldn’t dare fight with Mr. Foster for his woman.” Averie was speechless.
The client stormed off like the wind.
Averie’s secretary said, “Miss Tate, should I get Elyette in?”
Averie looked at her phone and saw the time. She also checked to see if he had called or sent her a message beforehand. He did no t
He came by suddenly. Was he just on the way or did something happen? Her calm mind was suddenly a mess.
Averie came out of the meeting room to go see him.
When she was in the lobby, she saw her client chatting with Elyette. The way her client bent down so respectfully was ironic.
Elyette saw Averie coming out from the lift. His deep-set eyes instantly landed on her face. “Mr. Foster, I won’t bother you two.” When the client saw Averie approaching, he immediately bade Elyette farewell.
Averie walked over to Elyette. She looked at his handsome face. “What is there that you can’t tell me over the phone?”
“Are you blaming me for coming to your office?” Elyette’s sharp gaze sized the surroundings.
The receptionist and the bodyguard were looking over. He believed that not long after, the news of him visiting her would spread throughout her entire company.
“Such harsh words.” Averie walked out of the office. “If there is nothing, why would you take the trouble to come here? I don’t remember us having any business dealings.” “If you want business dealings, I welcome you anytime.”
“Elyette!” She stopped in her tracks and looked at him seriously. “You were the one that said you were not going to get entangled with me anymore. So, why are you here saying all this to me?”
“How strange.” Elyette looked at her flushed face. “Jun told me this previously. But I remembered clearly that I have never said such a thing.”
Averie furrowed hered brows. “Indeed, I won’t come to bother you because of my own desires, but you didn’t invite me for the children’s birthday. Isn’t that a little outrageous?” He sternly reprimanded, “I am the children’s father. Do I need to remind you again?” Averie was almost deaf from his shouts. She tugged on his arm and quickly pulled him out of the office.
When they were out of the office, Averie let go of his arm.
“Why were you so loud back there? Are you afraid that the others won’t know that we had children together?” Averie glared at him. “I heard that you don’t want to get entangled up wit h
I thought you didn’t want any contact with me. What if you didn’t want to attend the children’s birthday party, but I invited you. Wouldn’t that put you in a tough spot?” “What tough spot?” He mocked. “If I don’t want to attend, I will tell you directly. Are you afraid that I will reject you, so you just didn’t bother to invite me?”
Averie blushed from his reprimands. “If you want to attend so badly, just come directly. Who is going to stop you? Who would dare to stop you?” “Me going there and you inviting me are two different matters!”
“You only care about your pride!”
“Is this a matter of pride?” Elyette clenched his fists tightly. “Averie, is this a matter of pride? You don’t respect me at all!” Averie was silent.
The golden sunlight fell on Elyette’s back, casting a silhouette on his handsome face. Even so, it did not block the regal aura he was emitting.
She was just trying to not put him in a tough position, yet he said that she was not respecting him.
“Okay. I’m inviting you right now.” Averie took a deep breath and enunciated, “The children’s birthday is not here yet. I’m inviting you right now. It’s not too late, right?” Elyette looked at Averie’s angry face. He asked, “What are you being angry about? What did I say wrongly? Tell me!”
Averie could see that he was not planning to end the argument anytime soon. Not only was he not planning to end it, but he was also planning to lay it all out on the table. A car passed them by and stopped in front of them.
The car window rolled down and Mike’s face appeared in front of them. “Hey! You two! What are you doing in front of the office? Sunbathing?” Mike teased, “It’s almost lunch. I suggest that you two find a restaurant to sit down and slowly fight it out. It’s bad to fight in front of the office.”
Averie’s expressions turned a little colder.
Elyette said, “Lunch?”
Averie replied, “I’m not having it with you.” Then, she turned around and headed back to the office.
Mike honked and said to Elyette, “Buy me lunch!”
Elyette swept him a cold glance and planned to leave.
“Buy me lunch and I’ll bring back lunch for Averie too!” Mike called out after him. Elyette stopped in his tracks. They found a restaurant nearby and sat down. Mike ordered food for Averie and wrote her number down. He got the waiter to directly deliver it to her. Elyette furrowed his brows. “You’re exposing her privacy!”
Mike tutted. “Averie always orders from here!”.
Elyette was speechless.
“Do you think that everyone is like you, getting their assistants and secretary to run around while you hide in your office being the big boss,” Mike would never give up a single chance to mock him.
As long as he thought about how Chad’s job every day was to serve Elyette, he would be extremely unhappy about it.
“Mike, we’re adults. Let’s not beat around the bush. Do you know what Averie is thinking about?” Elyette picked up his cup and drank some water.
