At that time, to find someone to perform the surgery, didn’t Graham also grovel everywhere?
What?
have you forgotten the embarrassment of that time now?”
Graham heard this, his face instantly turned pale, “Davis, you…”
Davis suddenly narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice, “Me what?
Which word of mine was wrong?”
Graham, seeing he couldn’t win the argument, subconsciously grabbed a wine glass and was about to throw it at Davis.
But at this moment, Elvin, who had been silently protecting Bianca, suddenly spoke up to remind, “What?
Is Graham trying to ruin Uncle Jacob’s birthday party?”
Graham wasn’t afraid of Davis or Elvin, but today they had come to attend Jacob’s birthday party.
If something bad happened here, it would only tarnish their reputation.
After some thought, Graham slowly put down the raised red wine glass.
He sat with pent–up anger, feeling very uncomfortable inside.

As Elvin withdrew his gaze, he glanced toward Blair Avery.

Their eyes locked across the distance, exchanging countless silent exchanges without uttering a word—an invisible battle waged in mere glances.
At this table sat two opposing factions, beneath whose calm surface surged turbulent waves.
Diane Huffman sat beside Blair, yet instinctively observed Elvin’s movements. He seemed overly protective of Bianca Watts.
Diane wondered: How could someone like Elvin, born with a silver spoon, be interested in a married woman like Bianca?
Especially one who’d already borne children.
Perhaps he just craved attention, she reasoned. That must be why he pretended to care for Bianca.
Yes, that made perfect sense.
While lost in thought, Jacob Lee approached with a wine glass.
He toasted each person at the table individually.
Jacob offered polite pleasantries, urging everyone to enjoy themselves.
When the group raised their glasses, Blair noticed Diane holding wine.
He swiftly pressed her hand down, whispering, “Diane, you’ve got research at the lab tomorrow. No drinking tonight.”
Earlier with Elijah Huffman, she’d only had juice.
Diane flushed slightly. “But Blair, it’s Uncle Jacob’s birthday banquet.

Refusing seems rude.”
Blair took her glass, declaring to Jacob, “Uncle Jacob, I’ll drink this for Diane.”
He drained it in one gulp.
Watching Blair’s tenderness toward Diane, Jacob’s eyes drifted back to Bianca.
Confusion clouded his mind–which woman was truly Mr. Lu’s grandson’s wife?
Blair came in with Bianca, that much was clear.
But since Bianca claimed to be Blair’s secretary, and now Blair was treating Diane so well,
Jacob couldn’t help thinking this Diane must be Blair’s wife.
Feeling certain, Jacob smiled warmly at Diane. “No need for formalities, young lady. Make yourself at home.”
Touched by his kindness, Diane smiled back. “Thank you, Uncle Jacob.”
Jacob nodded, then turned to Elijah. “Blair, who’s this fine young man?”
He’d noticed Elijah at the entrance earlier.
