Avery massaged her temples and said, “That idiot’s doing this without telling me again!”

Tammy burst into laughter, then said, “I think he just wants to have some fun and is using your birthday as an excuse to throw a party.”

“I think so… Did he call you earlier?”

“He did! I‘ll definitely be there this weekend. Are you inviting Elliot this time? He was pretty upset when he didn‘t get an invitation to your party a few days ago,” Tammy said. “He even booked the smaller banquet hall next to yours. How childish!”

Avery held her head and said, “I just got into a fight with him. He probably won’t want to come to my party.”

“Why did you fight again?”

“It’s a long story.”

“I see. Should I get Jun to ask him? If he wants to go, then you could invite him,” Tammy said, then chuckled and added, “I heard you accepted his gift. Could you really not invite him after doing that?”

Avery was left speechless by Tammy’s words.

It was all her own fault!

Why did she have to accept Elliot‘s gift?!

Things would not be this awkward if she had just rejected it.

Avery hung up on Tammy, then called Mike and said, “Don‘t you think you should tell me before organizing a makeup birthday party?”

“What if I told you first and you said no?” Mike said. He knew her too well. “If I inform everybody else before I tell you about it, then you would have no choice but to show up.”

Avery let out a bitter laugh.

“You have fun with everybody on your own, then! I‘m not going!”

“I already invited Elliot Foster! That shameless man accepted the invitation right away!” Mike said mockingly. “Your ex husband sure is thick–skinned, Avery. Why do you like men like him?

Avery lifted her hand to massage her temples, then hung up the phone.

Tammy called again less than a minute later.

“Elliot‘s going to the party, Avery! I figured someone as proud as him would definitely take the chance to decline!” Tammy said. “I can never predict his reaction. Is this a special trait that only successful people have?”

“You can never predict the reactions of a madman, either. Stop looking at him through rose tinted glasses, Tammy.”

“Hahaha! You always get so worked up when we talk about him,” Tammy assessed. “It looks like you still love him! Otherwise, you wouldn‘t react like this!”

Avery took a large gulp of water, then found an excuse to end the call.

She suddenly missed the days when she was too busy for anything else.

After inviting Elliot to the party, Mike went into the bathroom to compose himself.

Once he was calm enough, he called Chad’s number.

Mike had deleted Chad’s number long ago, but for some god forsaken reason memorized it.

 

It took a while before his call was answered.

“I thought you wouldn’t answer my call! Why didn‘t you reply to my text a few days ago?”

Mike was forced to send Chad an apology text a few days ago after Avery’s threats.

However, Chad did not respond to his text, and Mike could not stop thinking about it.

“You have the right to text me, and I have the right to not text back,” Chad said coldly. “Please don’t call me for no reason.”

“I do have a reason! Are you coming to Avery’s birthday party this weekend?”

“It depends if my boss is going or not.”

“Elliot Foster told me he was coming!”

“In that case, I‘ll be going with him,” Chad said, then added, “I‘m busy right now. Please don’ t call me again during office hours.”

He then hung up the phone.

A raging fury boiled inside of Mike.

He was nothing but a puny assistant!

What could he be busy with?

Elliot did not say anything like that to him!

Mike was second in command at Tate Industries, but was he constantly saying he was bus

Moments later, Mike created a text chain with some of the company‘s managers.

The name of the chain was “Down with Elliot Foster“. When the heads of department and managers saw the shocking title, nobody dared comme in the chain.

Mike: (We‘re bringing Elliot Foster down at the party this Saturday! Is everyone in?!)

One of the managers replied: (How?]

Mike: (With alcohol, of course! How else?) Everyone in the group was relieved

 (No problem! I can handle my drink!)

[I have pretty high tolerance, too!)

(It‘s all of us against Elliot Foster. We‘ve got this!)

Mike broke into a grin as he read the enthusiastic messages in the text chain.

Why was he being gracious enough to invite Elliot to the party?

This was his true motive.

Picking on Avery meant picking on him.

There was not much Mike could do to defeat Elliot, but getting him blackout drunk was right up his alley!

That night, Rosalie asked Elliot to bring Zoe over to the old mansion for dinner.

Dinner began once the two of them arrived.

“You should visit more often when you have the time, Doctor Sanford,” Rosalie said with a smile. “Elliot‘s usually too busy to spend time with you.”

Zoe nodded and said, “Alright. I‘ll come by more often as long as you don‘t find me bothersome.”

“Why would I? I like how outstanding you are!”

After a pleasant dinner, Rosalie called Elliot over to her room for a private conversation.

“Doctor Sanford seems like a good match for you, Elliot. You‘re not getting any younger. Why don‘t you get engaged?” Rosalie said.

“I won‘t think about marriage until shea‘s completely cured,” Elliot said as he searched for an excuse.

“Shea‘s illness and your marriage have nothing to do with each other!”

“I hope Shea can be there at my wedding.”

“She‘ll be there if you get married now, too! Didn‘t you say her condition improved after the surgery?”

Elliot shook his head.

“I’m asking you to get engaged first, not get married. Doctor Sanford gave up her high-paying job for you. You should show her some gratitude,” Rosalie said, then asked, “What are you

thinking?”

“I‘m not getting engaged,” Elliot said, then added, “I don‘t love her. I‘ll break up with her the moment I find another doctor who can help Shea. You’re a woman, Mom. You should know that I‘d just be dragging her down by getting engaged to or marrying her.”

The expression on Rosalie‘s face turned rigid.

“Do you think I had a deep, loving relationship with your father? Plenty of couples appear happy but are far apart under the surface. Even so, their marriages can last a lifetime.”

“Just because others can do that, doesn’t mean that’s what I want for myself,” Elliot said.

“You‘re too stubborn! Since you’re so adamant, I won’t pester you any further,” Rosalie said bitterly, then changed the subject and said, “Your father‘s death anniversary is coming up next month.”

Elliot pursed his lips, then turned away and said, “I know. I‘m leaving if there’s nothing else.”

“Think about things with Doctor Sanford again, Elliot!”

Once he was out of the room, Elliot told Zoe he had to leave.

Zoe walked him out, then said, “I‘ll leave after a little bit.”

Elliot nodded in response.

Half an hour later, Rosalie retired to her bedroom for the night.

Cole finally found the chance to speak with Zoe in private.

“I looked into it, Doctor Sanford. My uncle‘s attending Avery’s birthday party this Saturday,” Cole said, explaining his plan to Zoe. “I‘m sure he‘ll drink at the party. You should go fetch him once he‘s drunk. If he‘s blacked out, you can do whatever you want with him. If he‘s not quite drunk enough, all you have to do is give him this…”

Cole pulled out a tiny bottle and handed it over to Zoe.

“As long as he drinks this, he‘ll transform from a perfect gentleman into a beast in the sack!”

Zoe was rendered speechless.

It was shameless, but she had no other choice.

She took the bottle, then mocked coldly, “You sure are an expert at cheap tricks like this.”

Cole’s face flushed with embarrassment.

“You’re the one who asked me to think of something, Doctor Sanford. When it comes to my uncle, if we didn’t resort to cheap tricks, he would never sleep with you!”

“Shut up! I know the one he loves is Avery Tate! So what? I‘m his girlfriend now!” Zoe said haughtily. “Once I‘ve slept with him, I‘ll make him marry me!”
