Chapter 315

Outside the banquet hall.

Avery was not dressed to the nines like the other young masters of the Chambers family that evening. He was merely dressed in a simple yet elegant dark grey bespoke suit, his short hair neatly combed, and the golden–rimmed glasses added an intellectual touch to his deep brown eyes.

“Avery, let’s go home. I’m scared.” Mrs. Chambers looked fearful, gently tugging at the corner of Avery’s suit.

Dressed in an exquisite purple dress and wearing a million–dollar jade hairpin in her neatly arranged bun, Mrs. Chambers looked particularly beautiful that evening. She wore a simple set of pearl necklace and earrings, a bespoke set specially supplied by the royal family of Helgen, more expensive than diamonds,

In his heart, she was his only family.

Naturally, he wanted to give her the best of everything.

Avery smiled softly at his mother, gripping her hand, “Don’t be afraid, Mom. I’m here.”

“But.”

“Mom, I brought you here tonight mainly because I wanted you to meet Evadne. Weren’t you just saying yesterday how much you missed her? Tonight, you’ll get to see her.”

“Oh, Evadne, I’m going to see Evadne.”

Mrs. Chambers suddenly brightened up, exclaiming, “Evadne! It’s Evadne!”

Avery turned around hastily, and seeing Evadne walking towards him, a warm feeling welled up in his eyes, and his mouth curved upwards uncontrollably.

“Evadne.”

“Mrs. Chambers!”

Evadne quickly went forward to support Mrs. Chambers, smiling happily, “I didn’t expect you to come. I’m really happy!”

“I’m also very happy to see you, Evadne!”

Mrs. Chambers genuinely liked this young girl. She gave Evadne a big hug and then hastily fumbled in her handbag for a handful of chocolate candies to give her, “Have some candy! Last time I saw you, you particularly liked chocolates, didn’t you? I brought some for you!”

“Mrs. Chambers, thank you for thinking of me.” Evadne held the candies, her heart swelling with warmth.

She was such a person, having experienced many grand scenes and seen bloodshed on the battlefield from a young age.

The ordinary warmth of everyday life moved her the most rather than the thrilling and exciting events.

“You look beautiful today.” Evadne smiled and complimented.

“Do I?”

Mrs. Chambers blushed like a young girl, “It’s the outfit my son chose for me. I usually wear casual clothes at home, so when I suddenly dress up so formally, I’m not used to it.”

“You truly look beautiful, Mrs. Chambers.”

With that, Evadne smiled lightly at Avery, “Ave has a good eye for fashion.”

When Avery saw her smile at him, his breathing quickened, his heart pounding like a stormy sea.

“The Chambers family members are all here, Mr. Jeff and my father are at the same table. I’ll take you over now.”
