Meanwhile, Scott, holding a glass of wine, walked confidently toward Caitlin. Standing in front of her, his gaze unabashedly roved over her figure. With a smirk, he tried to strike up a conversation.

“Caitlin, it’s been years–You seem to be doing quite well for yourself

Scott made no mention of the past, assuming Caitlin was still in the dark about the fire he had started years ago. His interest was now piqued by her transformation; the new, stunning Caitlin had become an irresistible magnet.

“Scott,” Caitlin replied with a frosty smile, “chatting with me like this in front of everyone–aren’t you worried my sister will get jealous? Or that people might start gossiping about you?”

Her tone was dripping with sarcasm. To her, Scott was nothing more than a scumbag, a man who betrayed her while chasing wealth and power. She was glad they had broken up years ago. However, the TGV shares he swindled from herthose, she intended to reclaim.

“Jealous? Jasmine’s far too understanding for that,” Scott replied nonchalantly.

“Is that so?” Caitlin arched a brow, her lips curving into a faint sneer. She spotted a waiter passing by with a tray of drinks. Picking up a glass, she held it out. “Care for a drink?”

Scott clinked his glass against hers, his mood light. He downed the wine in one go, his gaze never leaving her.

Worried that Caitlin might steal Scott from her, Jasmine rushed over and clung to Scott’s arm. “Scott, what are you and my sister talking about?”

“Oh, just small talk,” Scott replied casually, reeling in his wandering gaze now that Jasmine was present.

“Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for joining us today to celebrate the birthday of Megan, wife of Mr. Jonathan Lewis, CEO of Lewis Investment Group.

“To start, we’d like to invite today’s birthday star, Megan, and Mr. Lewis to the stage. We also have a very special gift that Mr. Lewis has prepared for Megan. Let’s bring it out now!”

Two staff members entered, wheeling a massive rectangular object covered with a red silk cloth. The mysterious gift immediately grabbed everyone’s attention.

The emcee continued, “Mr. Lewis and Megan have always been seen as a model couple in New York’s elite circles. Today, Mr. Lewis has prepared this unique and thoughtful gift to express his love for his wife. Megan, please unveil the surprise!”
