His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 222

Since Avery booked the largest ballroom at the hotel, Elliot went ahead and booked the smaller ballroom right next to it.

He wanted to see for himself exactly how grand Avery's birthday party would be.

That weekend, everyone who received an invitation to the party gathered in the largest ballroom— Astor Hall - at the Oasis Hotel.

"Why isn't Avery here yet?" Tammy asked Mike the moment she stepped into the banquet hall. "She hasn't even replied to my text from last night."

Mike shrugged, then explained, "She's been busy lately. I don't know what she's busy with, but I already sent her the address, and she promised to be here."

"Okay... Isn't she busy with stuff at the company?" Tammy asked.

"She isn't! I really don't know what she's been so busy with. Everyone has the right to their own personal space. We might be close like sisters... I mean, brother and sister... I won't force her to tell me anything she doesn't want me to know about."

"I see... Since she's been busy, who's the one who organized the party?"

"It was me!" Mike declared.

"Who put the guest list together?"

"That was me, too!"

Tammy let out a "pfft", then turned and walked over to Celestial Hall next door.

Celestial Hall was much smaller in size than Astor Hall.

Thanks to Mike, Elliot's friends were having a gathering at Celestial Hall.

Tammy walked in and immediately sat down next to Jun.

"Where's Elliot? Why isn't he here yet? Didn't you say he was upset that Avery didn't invite him?" Tammy asked excitedly as she picked up Jun's glass of wine and took a sip.

"He said he was stuck in traffic half an hour ago," Ben said as he looked at Tammy, then asked, "Isn't Avery here yet?"

"She isn't! Mike said she's been busy, but he has no idea why. She didn't have time to plan a party at all. Mike was the one who invited the guests. Since he's not on good terms with any of you, of course, he wouldn't invite you!"
