Chapter １６

The next morning, Ava pushed open the bedroom door, and saw that the hot breakfast had been set on the table. Allen stood smiling at the door waiting for her.

Ava still had no good face, but was also really hungry. Sitting at the table with a bulging face, she picked up an oat bar and bit it very hard. It was like biting Allen. Ava shivered. 

"By the way wife, today is the day of manager Mr. Alberts' banquet, have you forgotten it?" 

Asked Allen carefully.

"I remembered it! What, you don't want me to go?" Ava asked without raising her head.

"That... No, I'm afraid you'll forget." Allen said with a smile.

"I..." Ava would have said that ‘today was still their third anniversary of marriage', but she just looked at Allen without any meaning to tell him. She then swallowed back in a breath and continued to nibble on the oat bar.

"I know. I'll go after work."

"I'll send you!"

"Allen, why do you have such a positive attitude when we're talking about me going to the party?" Ava couldn't help asking.

"Well... Because..." Allen's head was like a melon that rotated rapidly, "Because I think you and Mr. Alberts will do a good job, and it will help me!"

Ava sighed. It turned out that he's still such a man, which was useless.

After suffering from work, Ava finally hurried out of the company.

When she arrived at the company door, she saw Allen still waiting for her on that little electric donkey. 

This guy was actually dressed in a suit and was equipped with this ride. In the surprised eyes of passers-by, Ava sat on the back of the donkey, and the jade hand patted Allen on the back. 

"Let's go!" He said. 

"Sit still!" 

Allen suddenly accelerated, frightened Ava exclaimed, and subconsciously hugged Allen's waist with her arms subconsciously. The bad guy must have deliberately thought, but her hands didn't let go.

Allen took Ava to the gate of Elton building. She secretly looked at Allen, and suddenly he was in a hurry.

"Are you really not going with me?" Ava asked.

"I want to, but without an invitation, I can't go in." He said with a helpless tone. 

 "I'm sorry." Allen added. 

Ava was in a dilemma. "I'll say hello to Mr. Alberts and I will go home right away."

Allen nodded. "Go, eat and drink!"

Ava then turned and left.

Allen stared at her back, secretly said, "Wife, see you later, you are definitely the most beautiful protagonist tonight!"

Ava walked into Elton building, and immediately met a waiter. After seeing her invitation letter, she took her to the top outdoor banquet hall.

After entering the door, she found that almost all the families of West Coast city were all together. Ava thought secretly that Mr. Alberts was really a great pen. It seemed that his relationship with Mrs. Alberts must be very good.

But why did he look at himself in this way?

"Ava, how could you come so late at Mr. Alberts' party? So that you will become the center of attention?" 

In the distance, Anna and Lewis came, together with several other Smith family children.

Ava saw them, turned a white eye disdainfully, and walked to the table beside to take snacks.

Anna hit cotton, very reluctant to go up and continued to say, "Why didn't your husband come, oh, forgive me, he is not qualified to enter the site, right?" 

Ava stood up and looked at her carefully and said, "Anna, if you still take yourself as a guard family, don't start the incident in this situation, let others see our jokes."

"You…" 

"Well, wife, why do you care about her? Maybe the reason for her VIP treatment is that Mrs. Alberts gave it to her on purpose, so that she would know who the lady in the palace of Mr. Alberts is. Even if she seduces Mr. Alberts by any means of not being in the mainstream, even if she gets on the table, she will be rewarded by Mrs. Alberts!"

"You're talking nonsense!" 

Ava frowned. "Lewis, you see that Allen is not around so you can dare say that to me right now?"

Lewis had no skin and no face. "What is it? There's only me here tonight. What can you do to me?"

Ava was angry and annoyed. She just wanted to find Mr. Alberts to say hello and go. 

Suddenly, all the lights in the building suddenly went out.

There was an uproar.

But soon, a bunch of fireworks flew up and out of the air, banging out a gift.

Wow! 

"It's so beautiful!" said all the guests. 

Then, four helicopters entered the site, throwing countless rose petals from the air, and fell above the Elton building.

A drone flew into the air, hanging an envelope, hovering in the air.

Then the spotlight came on and shone on a person, she was Ava.

Meanwhile, the drone also fell in front of Ava, as if encouraging her to pick up the envelope.

Ava was surprised that she could not move, at the same time, a waiter came to her and said, "Ms. Smith, this is from the host of the banquet today. I hope you can check it out."

The host of the party today, Mr. Alberts? Wasn't this Mr. Alberts' wedding anniversary with his wife? Why surprise her? 

She hesitated for a moment, then picked up the envelope and opened it. It said, Ava, I love you.

The next moment, fireworks rose again, competing for opening up, Ava's name reflected in the air.

Anna and Lewis were confused. Why did Mr. Alberts surprise Ava like this? Was Ava really Mr. Alberts’ mistress? Did Mrs. Alberts know about this?

They couldn't wait until they wanted to understand this, they saw photos of Ava reflected in the building advertisements of Jansen Medical Inc. Industry next door, and the advertisement that said, 'Ava, I love you'.

Anna was jealous of madness, but she still wondered what was happening. Today, all of this was to surprise her? 

Ava, what was her reason!? 

"Ava, I didn't expect you to have a way, even Mr. Alberts was taken by you." 

Anna spoke loudly deliberately, hoping to attract attention from others, but her voice had long been submerged in the fireworks, and few of them could hear clearly.

Ava looked at the fireworks, to say that there was no touch in her heart is impossible, but at the same time, she thought if this surprise was from Allen to her, how good it would be.

After the second wave of fireworks, the whole banquet hall was quiet, and the voice of the waiter rang in the banquet hall. "Happy wedding anniversary to Mrs. Peterson. Next, please, let's welcome the host of the banquet tonight."

The spotlight turned from Ava and fell on another person.

The people stretched their necks and looked under the spotlight.

And they saw a man holding a guitar in his hand, and the music rang. 

He took a deep breath, his fingers swept the strings, and the melodious music sounded, accompanied by a familiar and charming voice.

Good to see / 

smile at the corner of your mouth / 

best in the next second / 

want to hear / 

you sing softly / 

best in the next second / 

White Baseball Cap /

dark green Cape /

time still good / 

tacit happens every second / 

fall in love with the cake of the same taste / 

hum a tune with each other / 

like to see your silly laugh / 

want to be able to do so / 

get old in vain / 

best in the next second.

Ava covered her mouth, not because of the surprise or how moving and pleasant the song was, but because of the singer.

Looking at him step by step, Ava suddenly felt her heart beat very fast, almost immediately from the throat out!

The people also recognized the person at once, but it was not Mr. Alberts!

They all face the man with an unbelievable expression.

It's him! How could it be him!
