FreeNovelTammy brought out a t-shirt for Avery.
"What on earth happened to you? How'd you fall and got the buttons on your shirt broken off? Tammy looked at her all suspiciously and guessed, "Avery, did you get into a fight with someone?" Avery replied as she put on the shirt, "Yeah, you guessed it right." "And you lost right? You look terrible. Shall | hire you a bodyguard?" Tammy said as she poured Avery a glass of warm water, "You are the owner of a multibillion dollar company now.; It's essential to have one. Look at Elliot, he has a bunch of bodyguards following him around. | heard they were all extremely well trained..." Avery smiled wryly and said, "If that's the case, | don’t need to hire anyone else.” Tammy asked, "Why?" and she understood as she asked it, "Is he out of his mind? What'd you have against that dirtbag?" Avery took a sip of the water and put down her glass.
"Thanks for the shirt. I'll make my way back to the office now." Mike was calling her to get some updates on the discussions.

"No need, I'm fine | promise. This isn't the first time we fought.” Avery responded half-heartedly.
"I know, but this is the first time he's laid his hands on you!" Tammy said as she thought of something. She turned around and walked to the cabinet and took out a bottle of pepper spray and handed it over to Avery," Carry this with you. You can use it on him the next time he bullies you again.” At the Tate Tower, Mike was surprised to see Avery's wardrobe change.
"It didn’t go as we planned?" "Yeah," said Avery.
"It's fine," Mike comforted her and said, "We can recruit a few more sales agent and sell it ourselves.” Avery nodded and continued, "I thought so too. After all, we just started up. Slowly but surely we'll get there." Mike was never interested in managing a business or moneymaking. He stayed with Avery out of gratitude. He'll let her steer the wheel.
"Mike, the money we made from overseas might be chipped in for this project... We might make some or we might even lose it all," Avery confessed after a long pause.
"Don't you worry about this, we can always make more money! Just stay put,” Mike said as he placed his hand on her shoulders and continued, "We had some rough sails too when we started our businesses overseas.” 2 Avery felt a slight comfort after hearing from Mike, " Perhaps | was a nobody back then, so | wasn't pressured about the outcome.” "Just focus on your own business, don’t get sucked into other people's opinion of you," said Mike.
Avery sensed a huge relief as she laughed, "You sounded extra clever today, Mike." "Ha-ha! Come on, I'll take you shopping. This shirt is just awful on you," said Mike with a slight aversed expression, "It's your birthday this weekend. You have to dress up!" Mike pulled Avery away from the offices.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLate noon, Elliot arrived at the Sterling Group offices as Chad followed from behind.
"Chad, I'm not going to Avery's party this weekend," Elliot said with a familiar tone.
Chad knew of course, as to why Elliot had a change of mind. He had a huge argument with Avery that afternoon, it will be hard for him to recover from it.
He was sensitive about his reputation.
Taking off her shirt and throw money in the public... Elliot felt ridiculed.
Though the restaurant was mostly emptied, there must have been a bunch of people looking in from the outside. "I'll go with Ben then," said Chad, "We shouldn't be absent altogether.” Elliot was distracted by the black bag on the table and asked, "What's this?" Chad coughed and couldn't find words to say.
