Chapter 948

Avery glanced at him boldly too. She, like him, dressed up exceptionally well too, for she wore the most expensive

dress in her wardrobe. Her makeup was light and delicate while her hair was tied up naturally, completing her

elegantly stylish look.

“Let’s go in,” he said.

“You go ahead! I’ll wait out here.” Avery was waiting for Tammy.

Elliot frowned. “Weren’t you waiting for me?”

Avery rolled her eyes. “That’s quite the wishful thinking you’re indulging yourself in. Not to mention your

shamelessness. I’m here to welcome my guests, and I’m waiting for all of them to arrive. But that doesn’t include

you even though you’re on the guest list.”

Elliot glanced at the guests in the banquet hall and said to her, “You should go on in and rest for a bit. I’ll welcome

the guests here.”

“Tammy and Jun are the only ones who aren’t here,” she said. “Could you give Jun a call and ask them?”

Elliot took out his cell phone and dialed Jun’s number, but the call went unanswered. He dialed Tammy’s number

again and it was answered in just a few seconds.

Jun was the one speaking. “Are you and Tammy alright, Jun? We’re waiting for the two of you.” “Crap! We overslept!

It’s all because we had a little drink last night! We’re getting up right away! You guys go ahead and start eating.

Don’t wait for us!” Jun hung up as soon as he ended his sentence.

Elliot walked up to Avery and wrapped his arms around her waist. “Let’s go in! The two of them haven’t woken up

yet.”

“Is something wrong? It’s already nine and they don’t usually sleep that late on normal days!” Averyed wondered.

“They overslept after drinking a little last night.”

“Drinking?” Avery was stunned for a moment. “Why were they drinking? I told Jun to take care of Tammy and stop

her fromze drinking.” “There are times where you’re really smart, Avery. But you can be a bit of a dummy

sometimes too.”

Avery did not enjoy him teasing her, so she removed his big palm from her waist. “Don’t think I didn’t know that you

were secretly trying to put your hands aroundf2 me.”

It was a blow to Elliot’s self-esteem but he did not express any anger or irritation. “Ever heard of Dutch courage?

Try using your noggin a little and think for yourself why they drank last night.”

Avery immediately understood what he meant when he mentioned that.

“That’s a solution in the short-run but it doesn’t address the root cause. They can’t always drink before they…” She

could not bring herself to finish the rest of her sentences. “It’s better than nothing. And since Jun won’t force it on

Tammy, it had to be Tammy’s idea to begin with,” Elliot said while turning to Daniel. His voice became a little colder

and he asked,” What did the little fatty say to you when he ran up to you earlier? He even tried hitting on my

daughter4e again!” Avery was startled by the hostility coming from him. “Elliot, Daniel is only ten years old. Do you

honestly think a child his age will do anything atrocious to our98 daughter?”

“That’s because you know nothing about boys nowadays. They’re precocious.” Elliot walked over to where Daniel

was without waiting for Avery to persuade him. Before he even walked up to Layla, Hayden appeared and stood in

front of her. “I’ve warned you to stay away from my sister!” Hayden frowned and said coldly to Daniel. Layla

grabbed Hayden’s arm and explained softly: “Hayden, he asked me if I had a smartwatch, and I said I don’t have

one.”

“Don’t get mad, Hayden! I’m not going to bully your sister. I just… I just want to be her friend. ” Daniel’s cheeks

turned red and he changed the subject. “By the way, I asked your mom about your dad and she said that he’s

coming today! Aren’t you happy that you can see him?” As soon as Daniel ended his question, Hayden immediately

looked up and saw Elliot standing not far behind Daniel. Layla saw Elliot too.
