“If you want to know who ordered me to do this, why don’t you just ask him?”

Rachel followed Carson’s gaze and looked down. She happened to catch Victor’s eyes as he exited the vehicle.

Susan’s parents rushed to welcome him, but anyone could notice the expressions they wore on their faces. James had a pleasant smile on his face while Tammy walked alongside him, their arms linked together.

Tammy felt bitter. She was so worried about her daughter being heartbroken. When she remembered how Victor had hurt her daughter, she looked absolutely displeased. “Think about

How about going to the second floor first to rest?” On the second floor of the banquet hall, there was a luxurious lounge where guests from wealthy families could relax and unwind.
