Chapter 1049
“I don’t want to go in. I’ll stay here for as long as the time he spent waiting for me,” Avery choked up.
The server saw how thin she was. He was afraid that she would catch a cold, so he immediately arranged for someone to bring over a parasol.
Then, the server brought a thick blanket over and placed it on her shoulder.
“Miss Tate, I have already informed the kitchen to serve the dishes. Why don’t you have some food and then leave! You should go ask Mr. Foster for forgiveness rather than stay here.”
Soon, dishes after dishes of good food were served.
When Avery saw the intricately made food on the table, she finally understood why Elliot would be so angry. She thought that the date that night was just another ordinary date. It was clearly not!
He had invited a famous pianist to perform. There was also such a beautiful light show. The dinner was so intricate it was top-tier. How could it be a normal date?
“Miss Tate, please uncover this dish on your own.” The server pointed at the fifth dish and said to
Avery.
Avery uncovered the fifth dish. It was a dessert in the shape of a lily. Next to it was a life-like goldfish. In the fish’s mouth was a ring.
The ring attracted all of Avery’s attention.
“This…” Avery said in surprise.
“Miss Tate, Mr. Foster was prepared to propose to you tonight,” The server explained, “For tonight’s date, he came here to set up the place two days ago. Everything you see here is him expressing his love for you.”
Avery’s tears fell uncontrollably. She looked around. Under the bright lights, she saw assorted flowers all around her.
The more she realized, the more apologetic she felt. She could not stay there for another second longer.
She took the ring in her hand and left the balcony. She had to look for Elliot to ask for forgiveness!
She did not know that he was going to propose to her. After all, she had already agreed to marry
Even if it was to tell him that she had to make a trip to the hospital, she would have come to see him first.
At Elliot’s mansion.
When Elliot retumed home, he immediately headed upstairs to his room locked the door shut
Mrs. Scarlet could not even greet him when she heard him lock his room shut.
He must have fought with Avery. Mrs. Scarlet knew that they were planning to spend time together during the holidays. She did not expect that it was only the first day of the holidays and they would have already fought so
badly.
She initially wanted to call Avery to ask what had happened, but she thought about how drenched Elliot was, she knew they must have fought badly.
Even if she called Avery to ask what had happened, it would not help with anything.
Just when Mrs. Scarlet was about to switch off the lights, a bright light came from outside.
A car stopped outside the courtyard. Then, Avery came out of the car. Soon, she was by the door of the mansion.
Mrs. Scarlet brought her a pair of slippers.
“Avery, what happened to you and Master Elliot? He came back drenched. You are too. Were you two on a date or were you two under the rain?”
Avery’s eyes were red and puffy from crying. She said in a hoarse voice, “I made him angry.”
“Oh. He has locked himself in his room.” Mrs. Scarlet looked troubled. “Although, I have the spare key…” “Please pass the key to me.” Avery reached her hand out to Mrs. Scarlet.
