176 The FMC fundraiser (2)

Dr. Snow didn't reach his destination when a commotion of people's whispers shook the banquet hall, and everyone turned toward the main entrance. On an instinct, Dr. Snow looked at Elizabeth, and based on her expression, he knew who arrived. He didn't need to guess because he saw the guestlist.

Liz's smile reached her eyes while watching Max walk through the main door and step into the event hall. She saw him stop and sweep with his eyes over the people present as if he is anxiously looking for someone. And when his eyes met Elizabeth's, his expression shifted slightly, and she knew that such a gentle gaze is only for her to see. There was a moment of stillness before he nodded slightly in greeting, and Liz returned his nod.
