Tpassed in the blink of an eye. It was already the weekend.

Tonight at Schmidt Manor, the massive fountain in the central courtyard was turned on again, and the hall was adorned with flowers. The whole place looked grand and luxurious, like an opulent palace.

Guests gathered in the main hall. Many well-dressed individuals clinked glasses together, creating a lively atmosphere.

Since Daisy's heavy sentence and David's tragic death in prison, the entire Schmidt family had been plunged into an unprecedented crisis. This was exacerbated by a series of business mistakes that led to a sharp drop in Schmidt Group's stock prices.

Since then, a heavy atmosphere had been lingering. It had been a long tsince they had such a glamorous occasion.

Victor, accompanied by Josh and Clarissa, mingled among the guests, enjoying the praise and flattery that hadn't been heard in a long time. Victor was particularly pleased.

"Look! The dress Madam Clarissa is wearing is designed by Ms. Emerson, right?" "It certainly is! Ms. Emerson's design style is very distinct. It's really beautiful." "It's true that clothes make the man. That woman used to be nothing but a background figure next to Josh, but she's actually shining tonight." Hearing the flattering praises from all directions, Josh held his head high. With his wife being praised, his face lit up with pride, and he felt even more gratified inside.

"Claire, you're really makingproud tonight." As Josh caressed Clarissa's delicate hand, he leaned close to her ear and chuckled. "You'll get your reward when we get back." Clarissa forced back her disgust and put on a coquettish smile.

"Where's Jimmy?" Frowning, Victor looked around. "Why is he missing at such an important moment?" "I heard from Jameson's secretary that he went to greet a distinguished guest," Clarissa replied beside him.

"Hah, is that 'distinguished guest’ Alyssa?" Josh sneered. His face was full of disdain.

Without a word, Clarissa lowered her eyes.

Victor's face darkened slightly, feeling disgruntled. "I've heard that Winston has allowed Jasper to stay at the Taylor family's Heightsnew Villa. He's been staying there for a long tnow.

"And it's rumored that the Taylors have completely accepted him. Remarrying Alyssa is only a matter of time.

Why can't Jimmy just give up on that bitch? How much longer is he going to be stubborn?" At this moment, his secretary hurried over. "Mr. Victor, Ms. Alyssa and Mr. Beckett have arrived." Victor's and Josh's expressions suddenly changed. They looked as if they were mirrors of each other, and they were equally ugly.

They had indeed sent an invitation to the Beckett family, but it was intended for Javier.

They didn't expect that Javier couldn't make it and sent this "Double Trouble" instead.

Outside the manor, a top-class luxury car stopped in the middle of the gate.

Jasper, dressed in a black suit, was the first to get out. With his strikingly handsfeatures and tall stature, he exuded a strong charm. Just standing there drew the attention of the guests.

And yet, this dignified scion only played the role of an escort.

At this moment, a slender and fair hand reached out from the car.

Jasper smiled gently as he tenderly took Alyssa's hand, leading her gracefully as she stepped out of the car.

Tonight, Alyssa wore a simple yet elegant off-the-shoulder fishtail white dress, accentuating her mature and enchanting figure.

"Lyse, are you cold?" Jasper whispered low in her ear.

His hand climbed up her slim waist, gently pinching the soft flesh that made him unable to resist.

"I'm fine. We'll be inside in just a few steps." Alyssa met his sparkling eyes with a smile as he held her.

The handsman and beautiful woman were a natural pair, drawing everyone's attention wherever they went.
