Chapter 864 The Last Act

The evening of the following day, Alexander held a birthday party for Jessamine’s children and invited every prominent person in the entire city; the scene was very lively.

Jamie had arrived fairly early and was standing in a corner with a glass of wine in his hand while observing the guests passing by with a bored expression. Then, a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye quickly attracted his attention.

He quickly placed his wine glass on a bar top nearby and immediately chased after the figure. In the end, he finally caught her standing by an exquisitely decorated willow tree.

“I finally found you!” He quickly placed his hand on the woman’s shoulder. “I knew you wouldn’t miss an event like today.”

The woman heard his words and turned around, showing a confused and innocent expression. “Do I know you?”

When Jamie saw the unfamiliar face, his smile froze on his face as he quickly withdrew his hand. Then, he awkwardly apologized, “Sorry. I mistook you as someone else.”

“No worries. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving.”

“Go ahead.”

The woman smiled and nodded slightly before walking into the crowd.

Looking at the back view of the woman, he could not help but frown.

Strange. Why do they look so similar?

“Jamie, who are you looking for?”

Danny was full of smiles as he approached him while linking arms with Ariel. Ever since they started dating, the two were always inseparably together as if they were stuck together by glue.

Feeling bothered for no reason, Jamie retorted, “Why do you care? You stinky couple, leave me alone!”

“Hey, watch your mouth. I didn’t even provoke you, so don’t implicate the innocent,” Ariel said with a smile.

“Yes, yes, yes. You guys are untouchable. I can’t win against you guys.” He then clasped his hands together and pretended to beg for mercy. “Ariel, please, I beg you. Take this man of yours away and bug some other singleton, okay?”
