Chapter 127: Slotting into place
Andrew found out that the second party that they were all going to was mostly work relations. It was a party that was completely out of his element, especially since he towered over quite a few of the guests.
That, and he wasn’t a medical doctor, he actually didn’t know what Amir did for work, if he worked at all, nor what his family did. Andrew still didn’t really know what the Becketts main company did for work. Trade? Brokering? Crime syndicate related things since that was Mr. Beckett’s background?
He had no clue.
He was also with Maxwell, which seemed to draw people to them like a magnet. Andrew had no idea why, but at the same time, he understood. Maxwell looked very handsome in his suit, and he’d restyled his hair. He looked more like a fairy than normal and Andrew knew he was getting jealous of all the men around him.
Even some women were getting too bold for his liking, but he was reigning his feelings in. He didn’t have time to glare at everyone. Those who hadn’t gone to Maxwell had instead gone to Andrew.
For some reason, people were trying to form a bond with him, but Andrew didn’t have any business cards or anything of the sort. His pockets were full of them now and it was clear he was growing flustered.
"Andy!" Kim’s shout across the room had Andrew feeling immense relief. His face brightened as he saw the taller woman make her way through the crowd. She had Jenny’s hand in a vice grip and it was nice to see that someone else towered over the others as well.
She was wearing a velvet pantsuit in a stunning green shade. She looked stunning, and her hair was down in waves around her shoulders. She’d matched the outfit with silver baubles and accessories. She’d done her makeup in a way that amplified her eyes. She looked stunning.
Jenny wasn’t anything to laugh at either. She wore a cream shade dress with a heavy floral pattern. The florals would have overwhelmed anyone else, but to Jenny they were quite complimentary. She wore strappy, high heels in the same cream shade as the dress and her accessories were the shade of her eyes. Bright blues and silvers. Overall, the two ladies looked quite pretty and Kim was the first one to pull him in for a hug.
"Look at this! Aren’t you the perfect eye candy! I bet Maxy is overflowing with jealousy." Andrew laughed heartily at her joke and they both glanced at Maxwell. He’d been in a heated discussion, his work face on, until he heard Andrew laugh.
His head snapped in their direction, a glare at the ready. As soon as he realised it was Kim, his expression relaxed and Kim laughed. He finished up his conversation and made his way towards them. Kim enfolded him in a hug as Jenny did the same to Andrew.
