Chapter 19 The Stolen Ring No?

That meant Annabel wasn't the girl Rupert met when he was a child.

A disappointed look was written all over Rupert's handsome face.

Oblivious to how he was feeling, Annabel stared at him in suspicion.

When they got home, Erica handed Rupert an invitation and said, "Don't forget Brock Norman is holding a banquet for his seventieth birthday this weekend."

The banquet was scheduled to hold in Imperial Hotel—the most luxurious hotel in the city.
