“I never thought you’d publicize your wife’s birthday party like this. Fane, your wife will surely be so happy with this!” Truthfully, Yvonne envied Selena to an extent. Fane was already advertising the party far before the event started. She would love it if a man were to treat her this way.
“It’s just that, these…words are too high-profile, too much. There’s even a countdown to the date of the party. Moreover, it’s stated here that you’re the ‘Goddess of War’s savior’ and that your wife is ‘the Taylor family’s number one beauty’…” spoke Tanya, a tight smile on her face as she did.
“Don’t you think your advertisement is a little too exaggerating? With this, the entire city knows that you’re the one who saved the Goddess of War’s life.”
Fane merely offered a dry smile, though his expression was darkening. “I didn’t make these flyers. While I do want my wife’s birthday party to stir the entire city and this was the surprise I prepared for her, I didn’t make these flyers.”
“Could your family have done this? How about your mother? Fiona? Andrew?” Tanya had initially assumed Fane could pull such a romantic move, but the more she thought it over, the more she realized that this was not the case. Fane, after all, was a rather low-profile kind of guy.
If the Goddess of War had not admitted that Fane saved her life before, nobody would have known about it until today.
After all, this was something to be proud of. If somebody else was in Fane’s shoes, they would have told everybody about this.
Fane, however, had never taken something like this as his capital to show-off.
“That can’t be; they’re old. Why would they stick their noses in my business?” Fane’s wry smile dropped into a frown. “Not many people know about this as I’ve just mentioned it briefly the other day. Even Old Master Taylor doesn’t know about it. Why would somebody publicize it?”
“Fane, look!” At this moment, Yvonne pointed at a taxi that drove past the park.
Fane’s eyeballs nearly popped out of their sockets when he realized what it was about. What was going on? Why were such publicizing words continuously broadcasted on the taxi? If that was the case, did the entire city know already?
If that was the case, the medication would take effect around thirty days from the day he consumed it. Was it a coincidence that the day so happened to be Selena’s birthday?
So, both sly dogs—Ivan and Xena—would want to make a big fuss on this matter. They were waiting to see how Fane would fail on that day. What sort of a scene would it be if Selena’s birthday became his death?
Now they even went ahead to publicize the party. Even if it was canceled, Fane and the Taylor family would be the ones to lose face.
They would be even happier if the party happened as usual.
“What an amazing scheme this is.” Fane smiled coldly once he was able to conclude everything. It seemed that the other party was destined to be disappointed.
