The attractive man sitting on the couch smiled in return. “I'll be around for a while.”
His strong nose bridge and amber eyes, catching the colorful reflections of the room, highlighted his sharp
features. A distinctive mole under his right eye added a peculiar charm to his appearance. Dressed in a white
shirt, he sat with his long legs crossed on the small table, exuding an air of elegance and danger.
The private room was filled with young adults from wealthy families. There were Bryson and Joanna from the
Andrews family, Amabel, and Spencer from the Morris family, Kaiden from the Hayes family, and Brigid and Luka
from the Alvarado family. Even Madeline was present.
Joanna glanced at Madeline and, with a tone of arrogance, asked, “What are you doing here? You're not
welcome.”
Madeline's eyes welled up, and in a soft voice, she replied, “I haven't seen Jaxson in so long. | heard he was
throwing a party, so | cto see him.”
She was dressed in a long white dress and an off-white sweater that loosely draped over her pregnant belly.

He straightened up and asked, “Did this happen while you were abroad?”
The room fell silent. Everyone's gaze turned to Madeline, their smiles tinged with mockery. They were all too
familiar with her story.
Madeline bit her lip, a shy smile forming on her face. “I'm pregnant with Derek’s child. We got married two
months ago. You were still away, so we didn’t send you an invite.” Madeline omitted the specifics, such as the
reasons she had returned from overseas and why she remarried Derek.
“What a pity to miss your wedding,” Jaxson remarked, though his tone lacked emotion.
Feeling awkward, Madeline looked down and managed a smile. “You're invited to the Sip and See party. We'd
love to have you there.”
