On the day of the party, Vincent arrived at the venue two hours in advance to oversee the preparations and make sure there were no mistakes.The party wasn't just a celebration of his first collaborative project; it also marked the official launch of the project. It meant a lot to him."Check the finger food once again and ensure that there are no allergens in it."Vincent was so focused that he didn't notice someone approaching from behind."You're certainly very conscientious in your work, Mr. Carter." A familiar, teasing voice sounded by his ear. Vincent turned around and smiled at the newcomer. "You're early, Ms. Moore. It's an honor to have you here."He was all smiles as he looked around, but there was no sign of either Ayla or Edmund. He changed the subject and asked in concern, "Why are you alone? Where's Ms. Keller?""Outside," Calliope answered briefly.Vincent carried a chair over and sat down beside her, smiling proudly. "Look! The setup is pretty nice, isn't i

It was almost 7:00 pm, and the party was already bustling with people.It wasn't a particularly grand party, but those in attendance were important people involved with the project or big shots in the business world. They were all well known in the industry. As the host of the party, Vincent was required to say a few words onstage."Ladies and gentlemen, thank you all for taking the time out of your busy schedules to attend tonight's celebration. I am honored to have all of you here. As a newcomer in the industry, I'd like to thank Ms. Albright for recognizing our potential and choosing Carter Group as her business partner. "This opportunity certainly didn't come easily, and it was all thanks to your trust and support. We couldn't have brought the project this far without your help. Let's raise our glasses. Cheers to the official launch of this project!"Vincent raised his wine glass, inviting everyone to join in. The loud clinking of glasses filled the place as the atmosphere

"Marisol?" Vincent looked at his empty glass, his brow furrowing involuntarily."I'm a man. Why would I need you to drink for me? You're a young lady—there's no need for you to worry about me," he said in a mildly teasing tone."Before coming here, I promised Dad that I would take good care of you." Marisol spoke firmly. That was the promise she had made to Denzel, and she was determined to keep it.Calliope's expression darkened at once. Vincent was her man. Why was Marisol standing up for him?Vincent sensed the slight change in the atmosphere. He turned to look at Calliope, and just as he had expected, she looked displeased.She couldn't drink due to her health, and Marisol had stepped in to drink in his stead. As Vincent's fiancee, she was sure to feel affronted.Martin Rivell, the guest who had proposed a toast, stood there awkwardly.Vincent had no choice but to get another glass of wine. He toasted Martin in return and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Rivell. Cheers to you.""You'r

Chad's lip curled into a cold smile as he watched Gordon hurry away. He was determined to make Vincent learn what it felt like to fall just as he'd reached the height of his success. Earlier, he'd carefully chosen a blind spot in the surveillance cameras so that no one would know about his conversation with Gordon.Once his plan succeeded, Vincent, as the host of the party, would have to take full responsibility. Even if something went wrong with Gordon, there was no way Chad would get dragged into it.Chad peered at his reflection in the fountain and straightened his shirt. Slipping on a polite smile, he calmly returned to the party.All he had to do now was to wait for the show to begin.…Meanwhile, Calliope was rubbing her forehead in exasperation, looking rather annoyed.An endless stream of people had been approaching her since the party began. They didn't dare to make toasts to her, so they directed every toast at Vincent instead. Vincent was now flushed.They were ge

Everyone's attention was on Laura. She elegantly speared a piece of food and put it in her mouth. At first, she looked pleased.Vincent felt nervous. He didn't know if the dish he'd had prepared so carefully would win her approval. Meanwhile, Chad waited in anticipation for the show that was bound to follow."The texture is smooth, and it's not greasy. I think it's pretty good." Laura praised it. But the next second, she paused, her expression twisting in discomfort. "But the sauce…"Before she could finish, her cheeks turned bright red, as if they had been roasted in a fire. Her breathing became labored, and she stuttered, "T-this d-dish—"Everyone looked concerned.Laura's butler, Curtis Bowman, was beside himself with worry. He immediately recognized that she was having an allergic reaction, and he shouted, "Call an ambulance, hurry! She's having an allergic reaction!"Chaos erupted, and someone swiftly called emergency services. Laura was still conscious, but she was findin
