The weekend arrived, and the engagement party of Alistair Han and Ayla Jiang was being held in a five-star hotel in Jinling City. Many prominent personalities came, and Ayla and her parents and Old Madam Han were busy welcoming them. However, the groom seemed nowhere in sight, which many guests noticed.
Alistair's absence didn't bother Ayla so long as he would attend and marry her on their wedding day. He didn't dare to refuse their marriage before his grandmother, knowing that the old woman could make things hard for him at the company if he opposed her.
Arriving at the party, Adrienne and Lennox were greeted by lively chatter and laughter. Adrienne could feel Lennox's grip on her hand tighten, and she squeezed back reassuringly.
