The night was running smoothly so far after the auction. Ava was called to be one of those women for bidding on a date, but Zephyr glared at her. That simply meant she had to stay put. The gala was great. Almost everyone, including Zephyr, was having fun. He was so excited for some reason. He was acting cool beside his woman. Ava was smiling as she listened to Mason blabbering about his experience on his new designation as the Marketing Manager. It was only three of them around the table. The guy was happy about the promotion he received. Casually, Zephyr rook a sip of his strong red wine and discreetly scanned the room for Adam. He found the old man with his wife, Julia O’Kelly. He felt bad for her. He felt bad for Ava’s mother to have a husband like Adam O’Kelly.
