Chapter 571

The party was in full swing, laughter echoing through the room, the clink of glasses setting the rhythm of joy. No one even noticed when the couple, Thaddeus and Evadne, finally made their fashionably late entrance, both having slipped into a fresh set of clothes.

Thaddeus, now basking in the glow of love, had all traces of gloom swept from his heart. He stood beside Evadne, radiant and proud, his confidence unbowed even among the distinguished Ashbourne clan, whose members were no strangers to accomplishment.

“Wow, Mr. Thaddeus is looking sharp tonight.”

“Dude. Thaddeus is absolutely killing it.”

Nydia and Beverly, standing side by side, were practically drooling over Thaddeus as they propped up their chins and gazed at him. dreamily.

Though both had significant others, they couldn’t help but appreciate a handsome man when they saw one–who could resist a second glance at such finery?

Poor Jason and Gordon, sitting beside them, looked like a pair of cannons ready to fire, their barrels aimed squarely at Thaddeus. But no matter how jealous they got, they could only simmer in silence. Start a feud with Evadne’s man? They were more interested in a peaceful end to their days!

The evening continued with the toasting and laughter, the swapping of stories and sips of drinks, and for a moment, it seemed like it was Thaddeus and Evadne’s own celebration.

Camille, the life of the party with her outgoing personality, had just finished coaxing Thaddeus into a toast when she wrapped an arm around Evadne. They were hugging and laughing, belting out songs with a karaoke mic

Meanwhile, Arnold was trying to hide his infatuation, his gaze persistently drawn to Camille’s radiant beauty as he stuffed his face with meat, his eyes burning with barely concealed desire.

“This girl Camille, I like her. She’s got a great personality, speaks her mind, seems carefree but is actually very emotionally intelligent. She knows how to take care of people,” Cassius commented casually as he elegantly cut his meat with knife and fork. Arnold chewed more vigorously, his long lashes fluttering, “She’s just a crazy girl, what’s there to like?”

“Then why can’t you take your eyes off her?” Cassius chuckled, knowing his younger brother all too well and effectively pulling off his “fig leaf.”

Arnold nearly choked, his face turning beet red as he coughed and reached for water to ease the embarrassment.

On Cassius‘ plate, the meat he had been cutting had vanished in the blink of an eye. Turning to Chasel, he found him contentedly munching on the stolen goods, eyes twinkling with mischief.

It seemed a little fox had struck again.

“If you’re still hungry, just cut some more,” Chasel cooed, his voice low and sweet in Cassius‘ ear.
