Elliot and Avery novel Chapter 35

Chapter 35 Avery decided to play along. 

“It’s true. He’s incredibly rich. He’s just old, ugly, and barely hanging on.”

The crowd was scratching their heads trying to figure out who this old, ugly, and unfit bigshot was.

A waiter walked over to Avery and said, “Please proceed to the second floor, Miss Tate.”

Avery instantly looked up.

The building had an open concept, and the second-floor railing could be seen from the living room on the first floor.

Elliot’s bodyguard was standing by the railing and looking down at her.

When the waiter escorted her away, the faces of the people in the crowd changed from one of mockery t o one of awe.

Those in attendance at the banquet were the creme de la creme of high society.

Even the wealthy had their own form of social hierarchy.

That night, the more ordinary members of the upper class were mingling amongst themselves in the banquet hall on the first floor.

Those with more power over society, on the other hand, were invited to the exclusive second floor.

“I can’t believe Avery Tate was invited up there! Who exactly is her sponsor?!”

“I have no idea! It’s not like we can go to the second floor. All I can say is that she must have a trick or two up her sleeve! Even if her sugar daddy is some old, ugly geezer, she still hit the jackpot with him!”

“As far as I know, there aren’t that many old men at tonight’s banquet!”

“Was she just messing with us?”

The crowd looked at the second floor in unison, but they could see nothing.

When Avery arrived at the round table, there were less than ten people in attendance, and all of them were men.

She walked over and sat herself down next to Elliot.

The dining table was covered in exquisite delicacies.
