    "Mainly because Chad is with him, so I didn''t worry that much," Mike added.

    "A social function?" Avery muttered. She was still worried, so she asked, "What social function?


    Where is it?"


    "I don''t know. I wanted to ask, too, but Chad won''t tell me. After all, this is their work. How could


    they tell me." Mike shrugged. " Why don''t you call Elliot and ask him?"


    Mike reminded her. She immediately headed back to her room.


    "Avery, are you sober? Does your head hurt? Do you want to drink something? The nanny has


    made a sobering drink for you. It''s in the thermos. I''ll go get it for you!" Mike chased after her and


    said this before heading to the kitchen to get it for her.


    Avery quickly returned to her room and picked up her phone. She found Elliot''s contact and called


    him.


    At the presidential suite of the hotel, Chad was in the living room when he heard Elliot''s phone ring.


    He immediately went to the bedroom and picked Elliot’s phone up.


    When he saw that it was a call from Avery, he answered the call without any hesitation.


    "Elliot!"


    "Avery, it''s me," Chad said, "Mr. Foster is asleep."


    "Where is he right now? Where is this social function? You clearly know his condition. How could


    you let him attend?" Avery was anxious. "Chad, tell me where he is right now. I''ll go get him."


    "Avery, calm down. I won''t let him drink. I won''t let him stay upte either. The social function is just


    a business meeting.


    Nothing to do with alcohol," Chad consoled her. "We''re still in Bridgedale, not very far away. He is


    only staying out because he wanted a breather."


    "A breather?" Avery asked.


    "Yes, you watch him too tightly. He has been very depressed. Let him have some air outside!" Chad


    took his sses off, feeling extremely absurd at the lie he hade up with.


    Since he said that, Avery would surely not insist that Elliote back, but he knew that such a lie


    would hurt her.


    "Oh... don''t let him drink. Don''t let him get too tired too. Actually, I''m not against him staying outside


    for a couple of days. If you exin it to me, I can understand." Avery rxed a little. "Chad, thank


    you for taking care of him for the next two days."


    "Don''t mention it. I heard that you got drunk. Are you alright?" Chad was a little awkward. "Avery,


    what I said was my guess. Mr. Foster didn''t tell me about it."


    "I''m fine. I was indeed watching him a little too tightly. I''m afraid that something will happen to him."


    "I understand. I don''t me you at all. On the contrary, I thank you a lot. I thank you for not giving


    him up." Chad looked at the time. "It''ste. You still have to attend Ang’s wedding tomorrow. Rest


    well!"


    "Hmm."


    Avery hung up, leaned her head back, and took a deep breath.


    Mike was carrying the sobering drink into her room. Seeing her dejected look, his heart constricted


    tightly. He sighed." Avery, what are you thinking about?"


    "I must have made him angry by getting drunk tonight." Avery ced her phone down. She


    epted the drink from Mike. " He doesn''t like me getting drunk."


    "Then, why did you do it?"


    "I initially nned to tell him that I was nning to get married to Sebastian tonight, but I cked


    out. I didn''t tell him anything."


    "It''s not until that step yet! When Dean has truly threatened you, you can tell Elliot." Mike waited for


    her to finish the drink before taking the empty bowl. "Sleep early! We can deal with it tomorrow."


    "Hmm."


    At two in the morning, Chad''s phone rang. He answered the call. On the other end of the line was


    the bodyguard anxiously saying, "Chad, Ang has gone missing! I had been standing outside the


    hotel entrance waiting for her. I swear I did not fall asleep at all. I didn''t see here out of the


    hotel, but she isn''t there anymore!"
