"Can you not try and give me a bad name, Elliot?" Avery was trying her best to

remain clear-headed and not get dragged into Elliot's tempo. "If I really wanted

to chase you a thousand miles away, I wouldn't have let you come to the

birthday party yesterday."

Elliot pursed his lips. He wanted to say something but ended up keeping it to

himself.

"I'll take you to your room to get some rest." He picked up her suitcase and

walked toward the door.

"You know my room number?" Avery watched as he led the way, then said, "Did

you really bribe my vice president? Where do you find all your courage, Elliot?"

Elliot stood waiting at the doorway for her, then said, "It's now what you think.

Your vice president asked me for help at the hotel yesterday. His son really is

sick. He wanted to get a refund on the enrollment fees, but the organizers didn't

allow it, so I helped him out with that. When I asked him to ask you to come

here, he refused at first, but he changed his mind after seeing how well you and

I got along yesterday."

"Are you sure?" Half of Avery's anger subsided after hearing his explanation.

"You can call him right now. How do you trust him to be your company's vice

president if you won't even trust him on this?" Elliot teased.

"Even if you have a reason, it still doesn't change the fact that you're a

b*st*rd." Avery sneered, "Does the great president of sterling Group really need

to go to these tacky lengths just to chase after a woman?"

Seeing through her pretense, Elliot grinned and said, "How would you like me to chase after you, then? I can do

anything."

Avery strode over to him, snatched her suitcase back, then said, "I'm going to my room by myself. I don't need you

to lead me there!"

Elliot followed her nonchalantly.

Avery pulled out the keycard to her room and checked her room number.

"Your room's right next to mine. I'll take you there," Elliot said leisurely.

Then, he took Avery's suitcase from her once again.

"If I'm really that tacky, Avery, I have plenty of ways to subdue you. Would I bother getting a separate room from

you?" Elliot dragged the suitcase over to the elevator doors. "I think you haven't met a bad man before. Well, it's

my fault for spoiling you."

Avery was at a loss for words.

One truly was unbeatable when one was shameless.

A pang of hunger suddenly shot up from her stomach, she had not had dinner. Her hunger made her stop bickering

with Elliot.

Elliot sent Avery to her room, then pointed at the room next door D;A1M8PW said, "That's my room. You're

welcome over anytime."

Avery opened the door to her room, then snapped coldly, "No, thank you. Don't you come over either."

She entered the room and shut the door behind her.

Even with the door standing between them, they could almost hear the sound of the other's breath.

Avery felt torn. "Am I being a little too harsh by shutting the door on Elliot's face like that? He did help me with my

suitcase," she thought.

On second thought, however, she would not have had to rush over here if it

were not for his antics.

Avery took a deep breath, forced herself to calm down, then dragged her

suitcase over to the bed.

She was starving and she smelled awful, she planned on taking a shower, then

heading out to eat.

She opened up the suitcase, took out her toiletries, then took out some clothes,

and headed into the bathroom.

She emerged after her shower about twenty minutes later.

She was beginning to experience some mild stomach cramps, so she did not

bother drying her hair. She grabbed her phone and keycard, then walked out

the door.

She took two steps out of the room, then saw a slender woman standing in front

of the room next door.

Just as Avery looked up at the woman, the woman looked back at her, too.

As their eyes met, there was a hint of shock on Avery's face, while a charming

yet playful grin appeared on the woman's face.

It was as if she was telling Avery that she was about to walk into the room in

front of her and subdue the man inside!
