Emilio’s voice was settled, and Margaret walked in from the side door next to him.
“She may have gone to the bathroom.” Emilio couldn’t help teasing, “It’s a pity that your plan failed before it even started.”
Averie stared at Margaret and whispered, “Even if this method doesn’t work, I have another way.”
“What other way?” Emilio asked.
Averie said, “I could send her a message. If she wanted to see me, she would naturally find a way to meet me alone.”
“Since you have her number, why don’t you contact her directly?” Emilio was puzzled. “Thank you for being able to come up with such a smelly way to block her in the bathroom.”
“I sent her a message before, but she didn’t reply to me.” If Averie wasn’t forced to, how could she think of blocking people in the bathroom?
“Since Margaret didn’t answer you, it means she doesn’t want to see you. Averie, you should give up. I don’t know if Margaret and my dad really love each other, but they seem to be in harmony on the surface. When she wins the award and marry my Dad, the two of them will definitely take advantage of this opportunity to make money…even if it’s just to make money from a partnership, they can live in harmony.”
What Emilio said, Averie didn’t think about it.
Margaret walked to Travis’s side, and after chatting with them for a while, Margaret walked towards Averie.
Margaret also sat in the second row. Her position was beside Travis.
It was equivalent to the positions of Averie and Margaret, separated by Travis and Emilio.
“Emilio, let’s change positions.” Before Margaret came over, Averie got up and pulled Emilio to change positions.
When the two of them changed positions, Margaret came over, passed in front of Averie, and sat down after a vacant seat.
“Ms. Gomez, congratulations on winning the March Medical Award.” Averie took the initiative to talk to Margaret.
Margaret: “Averie, there are too many people to congratulate me, and you are not inferior.”
“You said that you would not embarrass me and Elyette. Does that count? I didn’t take the initiative to provoke you.” Averie said humbly, “You said as long as I don’t take the initiative to provoke you…”
“What are you talking about?” Margaret frowned, looking puzzled.
“If Travis wants you to threaten me and Elyette, will you listen to Travis?” Averie asked, “you are going to marry Travis tomorrow. I have been having nightmares these days.”
“Hahaha! What’s the matter! You are so brave!” Margaret laughed happily, then stared at Averie and Emilio, “I see… No wonder Travis wants to save a place for you next to Emilio! Isn’t Travis trying to match the two of you?”
Averie and Emilio remained silent.
Margaret laughed even happier when she saw the two of them acquiesce.
It seems that watching Averie shriveled can make Margaret very happy.
Travis was curious about what they were talking about, so he walked over quickly and took a seat between them.
“What are you talking about?” Travis said, looking at Margaret, “Looking at how happy you are laughing.”
Margaret chuckled: “I think Averie and Emilio are quite a couple.”
“Haha! They have similar eyes. And Emilio and Averie are still classmates.” Travis looked at Averie, and continued, “Averie, is Elyette okay recently? Why do you keep guarding a useless man? If you are with Emilio, the Jones family’s beauty and medicine will definitely be more powerful than your dream maker group!”
Travis added, “Of course, if you marry Emilio, there will be no difference between you and me. We are a family. I will be marry Margaret tomorrow. If you marry Emilio, you will have to call Margaret a mother in the future. If you want to keep Elyette alive, Margaret will definitely help you without hesitation!”
Travis had already begun to threaten. And the threat was quite obvious.
Margaret smiled and watched all this like a bystander watching a good show.
“Averie, you stay for the evening celebration banquet and celebrate together.” Travis invited.
Averie: “My son left school early tonight. If I came home late, my son would be worried.”
Travis: “Is your son in his teens? He is already so old, you don’t need to worry about him “
“Well, I don’t care about him very much, but he prefers to care about me.” Averie casually found an excuse, “I’m going to the bathroom.”
Averie got up and went to the bathroom after finishing speaking.
From the conversation with Travis and Margaret just now, Averie already understood their thoughts.
Travis made no secret of it, while Margaret had nothing to do with him.
Once the two of them get married, Margaret will completely obey Travis, and then she can throw the blame, saying that it is Travis’s meaning, and it has nothing to do with her.
Half an hour later, Averie did not return to her seat.
And the award ceremony was about to began.
Emilio called Averie and asked, “Why haven’t you come back yet?”
“I’ve already left.” Averie replied, “You have seen Margaret’s attitude. She has the same heart as your father. Even if I beg her, she will never be soft-hearted. So there’s no need to find her alone.”
“Well. Then you go back and have a good rest. Will you come to my dad’s wedding tomorrow?” Emilio asked.
Averie: “Probably!”
After talking on the phone, Emilio told his father, “Averie’s left.”
Margaret sat next to Travis, and the smile on her face faded a little when she heard this.
…
Averie came out of the hotel and didn’t go home.
She wanted to confess to Elyette, but she didn’t have the courage.
She needed alcohol to embolden herself.
“Ali, please accompany me for a few drinks!” Averie said to the bodyguard.
Ali was stunned: “Boss, do you want to drink?”
Averie: “Well.”
“I can’t drink with you. I have to stay awake at all times. If I drink, Mike will definitely scold me to death.” Ali didn’t even think about it and rejected her, “Why don’t you find someone else? If you can’t find someone else, you can make a video call for your best friend and let her video watch you drink.”
Averie: “…”
Hotel, the scene of the March Medical Award.
When the guests announced Margaret’s name on the stage, the spotlight suddenly hit her.
In the warm applause of everyone, Margaret got up and walked towards the stage.
“I finally stood on this stage. When I was 63 years old, I got my dream trophy. I thought I would never get this award in my life. Because to get this award, The effort required and the reward may not be proportional.” Margaret held the microphone in one hand and the trophy in the other, with an excited smile on her face, “But I waited.”
There was thunderous applause from the audience.
After the applause stopped, Margaret took a deep breath and said again: “Here, I would first like to thank my alma mater and my mentor for cultivating me. Second, I would also like to thank one person, this person is my fiance, Mr. Travis Jones.”
Margaret said, and a spotlight hit the audience and fell on Travis.
Travis’s smiling face was projected onto the big screen of the stage.
“During my long work over the years, it was he who provided me with uninterrupted financial support. Without his support, I might not be able to persist now. So I would like to thank him in particular.” Margaret expressed gratitude to Travis, “Secondly, there are members of my research team who have paid silently. When they joined my team, we signed a non-disclosure agreement, and they could not tell anyone about our research, including now that we have succeeded, but everyone don’t know their names. They were supposed to be on this stage with me…For their protection, I’m standing here today and accepting this honor.”
“I’m really happy today, so there are a lot of words… I hope you don’t mind.”
The host smiled and said: “Ms. Gomez, we can understand your joy. We are also happy for you. I heard that your alma mater has awarded three winners of the March Medicine Prize. Do you know them?” People just wanted to find a topic to chat with Margaret, and didn’t do much homework, so they didn’t know the grievances between Margaret and Professor James Hough.
After asking this question, the smile on Margaret’s face suddenly froze.
Under the stage, Emilio saw the smile on his father’s face disappear instantly.
“The first two winners of the March Medicine Prize have passed away. I don’t know the first winner, because the age gap is still quite large. As for the second one, I am quite familiar with him.” Margaret said these words always had a decent smile on her face.
Averie was sitting by the window of a restaurant, and the wine she ordered had not yet arrived. So she took her phone to watch the March Medical Prize presentation live.
In fact, Averie didn’t want to watch the live broadcast. It was the news that popped up the live broadcast link, and she clicked on it.
As soon as she entered, she saw the host asked Margaret that question.
The last time she mentioned Professor James Hough in front of Margaret, Margaret was furious and very angry.
She thought that Margaret would turn her face this time, but she didn’t expect Margaret to answer the question with a smile instead of being angry.
