Chad finally understood where all of this was going.
"Of course, sir. I'll send you the tickets once they're booked."
Elliot was not in his office at Sterling Group the next morning.
Ben and Chad seized the opportunity to gossip about their boss.
"Mr. Foster might as well have told me straight up that he wanted to take Avery out," Chad said with a chuckle. "I wonder what happened between them. I didn't expect things to progress so quickly. I thought they were getting a divorce!" 1
Ben was analyzing the situation, then said, "I'm guessing they slept together. Elliot is a stone-cold b*st *rd, but after sleeping with Avery, I bet he couldn't control his urges even if he hated her to death."
"Chelsea would lose her mind if she found out," said Chad.
"Don't tell her. She's spent the past few nights getting
drunk, hoping that Elliot would feel bad for her..." Ben sighed. "Who would've thought that she would lose to Avery Tate."
"Fate is a mystery to us all. I wonder why Mr. Foster postponed his whole schedule today," Chad mused.

There was a lecture by internationally renowned neurology expert, James Hough at Avonsville University that day.
Avery arrived at the auditorium early that morning to get a spot.

The talk went on from 10 a.m. to 11.30 a.m. that morning.
Once the lecture ended, Avery rushed toward the exit. 1
