Chapter 678

Alyssa’s attention was immediately drawn to a beautiful ebony box on the coffee table.

Her expertise in

antique collections allowed her to discern that the box contained something truly rare.

“What a lovely box …” She gasped and stared at it.

“Don’t just admire the box. You should see what’s inside.” Jasper encouraged her, standing

by her side.

and utterly captivated by her beauty.

Confused yet eager, Alyssa wiped her sweaty palms on her dress. Her endearing action

only deepened

Jasper’s affection for her, and he felt an irresistible desire for her.

Carefully, she opened the box to reveal a pink top and a green-stemmed glass goblet that

seemed like

something out of a dream.

She exclaimed in delight and covered her mouth.

Winston had collected antiques from all over the world, but he had never acquired an item

from the

Regency Era. The glass goblet finally filled that gap, and Alyssa was thrilled by the find.

“I stumbled upon this glass goblet in a Yoarkley collector’s collection three months ago. I

thought you

would appreciate it, so I went to great lengths to negotiate with him and convince him to

sell it to me,”

Jasper explained with a smile.

The effort he had put into securing this item was inconsequential compared to the joy of

seeing her smile.

“It’s absolutely lovely,” she murmured, her eyes sparkling with joy.

Since she didn’t have a pair of gloves, she hesitated to touch the goblet and instead ran

her fingers along

its edges.

“You can touch it however you like. It’s yours,” he said tenderly, then slowly wrapped his

arms around her

from behind, as if protecting something precious.

He breathed heavily and held her hand firmly from behind. She could feel his warm breath

against her hair

and ears, and their hearts raced as their shadows merged.

A sweet, intoxicating scent filled the air.

“Jasper-” she called out and suddenly felt a force from behind. He pressed against her

back and

tightened his grip on her waist, pulling her into an embrace.

“Lyse, save the scolding and punching for later,” he whispered. For now, he just wanted to

savor the hug.

It was time for ballroom dancing at the birthday party.

As the star of the night, Lyla danced to the music with Winston, drawing the admiration

and envy of the

guests.

Since Winston came from a prestigious family, he had taken lessons in ballroom dancing in

his teens. He danced better than any young man for a man of his age.

As for Lyla, she could rival a professional dancer due to her theatrical experience, where

ballroom

dancing was one of the skills she picked up.

Together, they danced elegantly, capturing the attention of everyone in the room.

Some of the guests had come with their own partners, while others sought dance partners

among the

other attendees. Laughter and conversation filled the dance floor.

Josh, of course, had to dance with his wife, Clarissa. Similarly, Landon would only dance

with Lauren.
