The tall and thin John was a little surprised by his question.

He replied politely, "Mr.Smith, milady's name is Jessica."

Jessica? lan broke into a frown.

"Is she American?"

John answered, "Yes, she is."

She was American! lan's heart thumped wildly again.

He then asked, "Does she go by any other name?"

"Yes, John paused and then said, "She also goes by Queenie Schmidt lan lowered his eyes in disappointment when he heard the unfamiliar name.

He stared at the two gems in his hand.

Suddenly, he pointed at them and asked, "How did she get this?"

John smiled.

"Ma'am said that a friend who has already passed away had given it to her.Since it's that friend's granddaughter's birthday today, she shall return it to its original owner."

A friend who had already passed away had given it to her...

That friend must be Yvette.

lan's disappointment grew even stronger.

He shook his head, feeling like he must have lost his mind.

Although he knew very well that Yvette had already died twenty years ago, the moment he heard a bit of news about her, he could not help but wonder if she was still alive.

He lowered his gaze and put the other gem into the box.

Then, he sighed.

As he had only just recovered, he couldn't stand for too long.

Thus, lan turned, went up the stairs and toward the VIP lounge to rest.

Justin didn't understand why his father-in-law had suddenly become depressed.

He followed after him and asked, "Uncle lan, what's wrong?"

lan waved him off.

"It's nothing.You get back to the party"

Justin held his arm and said, "I'll take you upstairs, and also check in on Nora along the way."

Nora hated crowds the most.

Besides, she wasn't the star today, so she had been hiding upstairs the whole time.
