Suddenly, a figure who appeared to be familiar to Leander approached in front of Leander. It was none other than Camila and Ethan, his boyfriend. Squinting darkly, he was clearly shocked by her presence. He thought she was being detained by the FBI considering the issues related to his assassination attempt.“Aagh, darling,” Vivian stood up from her seat and went to hug Camila and exchange greetings as well.“Happy birthday to you, dear,” Camila smiled at her as she placed her hands on Vivian's shoulders.“Uh, come have a seat!” Vivian ushered both Camila and Ethan to two empty seats, which were beside Leander, her expression cordial and unwavering.Camila sensed a pang of fear in her as she sighted Leander, who was focused on the meal in front of him. That action alone showed that Leander doesn't acknowledge her presence at all. Ethan was eager to sit first, but Camila couldn't do that immediately. Her heart was racing like a car,a wave of fear and unease crashing on her. “Are you o
“Uh, there is an empty seat here, Princess. If you don't mind, come take it.” Camila raised an eyebrow at Brianna, her expression unwavering.“Darling, I’ve got one,” Brianna said with a warm grin as she looked at her.Leander's eyes narrowed as he took in Camila’s dismissive words. Her attitude was unbearable. He realized she still saw him as the ordinary person he used to be, back when they were together. She doesn't respect him now. Fueled by a new determination, Leander promised himself that she would learn differently. He would show her that he had risen far beyond her and Rex in power, wealth, and connections.As everyone settled down at the long, elaborately decorated table, a hush fell over the room. Crystal glasses gleamed under the soft glow of the chandeliers, and the rich aroma of gourmet dishes filled the air.Vivian sat at the head of the table, radiating happiness as her family and close friends gathered to celebrate her special day. Beside her, Camila forced a smile, t
As the party came to an end, Leander stepped out of the hall. He thought of getting the gift he had bought for Vivian, which was in his car at the park. But then an idea seeped into his head. He quickly grabbed his phone, sighing softly with determination, before dialing the contact of one of his bodyguards. “Hey! Are you there?” Leander's voice echoed through the phone’s microphone. He waited a moment to get a response from the other end. “Master, I’m listening... How may I help you?” The bodyguard exclaimed, his words energetic. “Hmm,” Leander's breath echoed through the speakers. “I want you to get the box in my car for me. I'm right here in the hall. I'm waiting,” he demanded, his words laced with confidence and authority. “Alright.” As soon as the bodyguard finished speaking, Leander hung up and turned around. He began staring at the crowd in front of him, keeping a close eye on Vivian and Brianna’s movements. Not long after, the bodyguard arrived at the spot where Leander w
