“Avery!” Tammy stormed inside the room. “Do you know what Elliot just told my husband?”
Avery tensed and sat up from the bed, thinking, ‘why did he go to Jun? Could it be that…”
“He said that he wasn’t going to attend our wedding, and he changed his mind just now! He said that he
will be attending the wedding tomorrow,” Tammy blurted out hastily, “how can he change his mind so
quickly?”
Avery sighed a breath of 25 relief.
“By the way, why did he come looking for you? What did you two talked about?” Tammy sat down by the
bed and stared intently at Avery’s face. “He didn’t bully you, did he? I wanted to come help, but Ben said
he will come up instead…”
“He didn’t,” Avery said calmly, “there are far too many guests around for him to lose hisgc mind.”
“Good, then. Do you want to go out for a bit? The breeze out there is so cool tonight! It’s not cold!”
Tammy suggested, “you probably can’t sleep this early.”
Without any hesitation, Avery nodded. “I don’t have extra clothes, though, is my sleeping gown23 okay?”
“Hahaha! They are all playing at the pool right now and everyone is in a swimsuit…so of course it’s okay
for you to wear your sleeping gown!” Tammy took her hand and led her out of the room.
It was seven at night and the silhouettes stretched indefinitely under the streetza lights.
There were a lot of people playing by the ocean.
The temperature was approximately fifteen Celsius and though it was cool, it was hardly35 cold.
Avery felt more sober in the sea breeze and mumbled, “Elliot should probably get some air as well.”
Perhaps the sea breeze would bring his senses back.
“Huh? I think he went to rest. Not only was his face red when he talked to my husband just now, even his
eyes were red. He is really bad at drinking.” Tammy stepped on the soft sand and said, “he insisted on
staying in the same mansion as us…so my husband ended up letting Elliot have his room. He is such a
weird guy, Avery, how did you even manage being in a relationship with him back then?”
“I don’t really want to think back to my past with him.”
Avery was scared that she would remember the good things about Elliot. Back when they were
together, the sweet memories outweighed the bitter ones; he once saw her as his most precious and
treated her with care.
At the time, he was the only thing on her mind apart from her study. First love was often unforgettable
because it was the first time she had a taste of love.
“Weren’t you the one who mentioned him first?” Tammy teased, “you are the one who felt something
after seeing him tonight, right? After all, he did just prove how he feels about you in front of everyone.”
“We showed him videos of famous actresses and sexy women tonight and he didn’t feel a thing! His
heart only beats for you… Avery, do you know how envious my friends are?” Tammy continued to tease
Avery. “Why didn’t I know how attractive you are until now? Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, is that
it?”
Avery cringed at Tammy’s words.
“We got into an argument tonight, actually.” Avery told Tammy what had happened and said, “he thought
that I’m on a diet for Eric’s sake.”
“Damn! What a wild imagination he has! He might as well guess that you are doing it to debut as a movie
star.” Tammy was laughing her head off.
“Maybe because I’m too old for that. Idols these days start their career early before they turn twenty,
right?”
“Some start after they turn twenty as well, but of course, those people are the minority. Hahaha! So what
did you tell him?”
