Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

478 Baby shower party

The garden was filled with family and friends, including Maverick’s business associates, fellow Celebrities, and even a few fans made it to the party

The garden wasn’t overly decorated; it was designed with different types of colors of balloons and flowers but with blue and pink as the background.

A section was preserved for food and drinks, while the huge cake was placed on a table.

Ahead was a maze, made with pruned shrub plants.

Nothing serious was going on when Jeslyn and her husband arrived. Most of the guests had a glass of drinks in hand while bonding with one another.

People walked around the food section. Some were eating dessert and others choosing to eat snacks.

There were only a handful of tables beautifully arranged. With how few the tables and chairs were, It is clear that the party wasn’t one where sitting is recommended.

Jeslyn shook her head with a bitter smile. Is this what her sisters–in–law wanted to do? To make guests grow tired?

Seeing everyone doing their thing like they cared not if there weren’t seats, Jeslyn shrugged. Who is she to care when the guests had smiles on their faces as they mingled?

She could hear the sound of classic piano in the background but the only thing her senses captured was the whiff of desserts. Not even the fresh smell of flowers meant a thing to her.

She ditched her husband, whom people were starting to gather around and headed straight for the row of desserts.
