Chapter 395
Chapter 395 When the bodyguard saw hering down, they immediately reported it to Elliot.
Elliot got up from the sofa and looked at the staircase.
Avery was wearing his robe. It was touching the floor. The sleeves were a little long too.
She looked like a child wearing adult clothes wrapped in the huge robe.
He furrowed his brows. Should she not be on a drip at that moment? Why was she downstairs?
“Elliot, you have hidden a woman here!” Someone chuckled and teased when they saw Avery.
“He is a man! It would be weird if he didn’t havedies! Haha!”
“Which family is this heiress from? Or is she someone you found just to have fun with?”
Elliot ignored everybody’s questions because Avery was walking toward them.
Did she not want to die? Why would she be willing toe down to meet his friends? What was she
trying to do?
He strode over to her and blocked her path. He looked at her with dark stormy eyes. “Did you pull the
needle out again!”
She stretched her hands out and pushed against his chest a little. “You invited friends over, can ‘t I join
in?”
Join in? Hehe! Since she wanted to join in, he would let her do so!

He turned aside. Avery’s gaze naturallynded on the barbecue rack!
Her gaze turned cold. Her feet turned to jelly. She suddenly shuddered and retreated a few steps!
Their dinner that night was the python that had scared her out of her mind and made her run into the
wall!
She could still remember how intimidating and alive it was when it opened its jaws. She never expected
them to kill it, clean it, and serve it up as barbeque!
Looking at her terrified face, Elliot grabbed her by the wrist and led her to the sofa.
“Since you’re already here, then have a taste!” Elliot’s voice was low and hoarse with a hint of charm in
it. It was as if he was talking about normal food.
Avery’s heart was beating wildly! Why did he kill the python? She did not dare to think much of it.
She was like a puppet under his control. He ced her on the sofa.
“Isn’t she Avery Tate of Tate Industries?” Someone had recognized her.
“Oh, I have heard of her before.”
“You two are amazing! I have never heard anything about you two!”
“Haha! I only started noticing herpany because I heard she was young and pretty.”
Avery lowered her gaze and picked up a ss of wine.
Elliot grabbed her hand and stopped her. She had been on a drip to lower her fever. She could not
consume any alcohol that day as the fluid used for the drip contained fever-reducing and anti-
inmmatory drugs.
Taking away the ss of wine, Elliot signaled for the bodyguards to give her water instead.
“Just drink your own wine, don’t bother me,” Avery said, depressed. She got up from her seat next to
him and sat opposite him.
Elliot furrowed his brows. He saw Avery sitting down next to aplete stranger. She would rather sit
with someone she did not know than with him!
“Elliot! Don’t worry! I won’t bully your little beauty! Hahaha!”
Elliot’s expressions darkened. He raised his ss and downed it in one go.
An hourter, the python was ready. Everyone started feasting.
Elliot headed to the washroom.
Avery looked at his back, picked up the ss of water, and took a sip.
A momentter, Elliot returned to the main hall from the washroom.
“Where’s Avery?” He asked and squinted, looking at the empty ce on the sofa.
“She said she went to the washroom. Come, let’s continue drinking!” His friend replied and picked up
the wine bottle, pouring Elliot more wine.
At two in the morning, Elliot went upstairs with the help of the bodyguard.
He walked over to Avery’s room and pushed the door open.
The room was empty! No one was there! Where did Avery go?!
