Chapter 891
Avery was overjoyed at the compliments she received.
Upon arriving at her office, she spotted a bouquet of red roses on her table and the smile on her face instantly froze.
It was not an ordinary bouquet; it contained at least ninety-nine roses and had taken up the space of over half of her desk.
Only a man would send a woman ninety-nine roses when he was trying to pursue her.
She placed her purse on the table and ran her fingers through the petals to find a hand written note, which said: ‘you are forever my goddess’.
Elliot’s face instantly appeared in her mind when she saw the note.
Who else would send her such an enormous bouquet along with such a cheesy note? She could tolerate him fawning over her in private, but doing so in her office would affect her mood to work In Sterling Group, it was time for the weekly meeting on Monday.
The managers entered the meeting room once Elliot arrived into the office.
After having too much to drink the night before, Elliot woke up with a mild headache and told the secretary to get him a cup of coffee before heading to the meeting room.
Once the meeting began, Elliot started to hear reports from all departments regarding performance in the prior week.
Shortly after, the secretary came in with the coffee and just as she was about to deliver the cup to Elliot’s hand, the screen of his phone lit up with Avery’s name displayed on it.
His heart thumped at Avery’s call and accidently bumped his hand towards the cup of coffee his secretary was holding when he reached for the phone.
"Snap!"
