Chapter 494
AM
The welcome party was being held at Baykeep’s most luxurious establishment, a palace–like entertainment complex called Eyster.
Eyster was the biggest casino in the entire Kingdom of Xyperia, offering everything from gambling to gourmet dining and gorgeous women.
The towering golden building was the tallest structure in all of Starland.
Seven o’clock was approaching fast.
Shermaine arrived fashionably late. She stepped out of the car first, then waited for Joshua to emerge.
Camera flashes lit up the night like lightning.
She extended her hand back into the car. Everyone watched as the man who stepped out looked exactly like a vampire aristocrat–noble and utterly captivating.
His hair was tousled and dyed golden, much longer than before, with gentle waves swept back elegantly, leaving just one playful strand falling across his forehead.
His eyes were striking gray–blue, his lips naturally red, and the black suit made his presence even more commanding. Gold–framed glasses perched perfectly on his sharp nose.
The moment he appeared, he became the center of everyone’s attention.
Anyone who had seen Joshua on the cruise ship wouldn’t recognize him at first glance now.
The man standing before them was far more striking than before.
Joshua already had good looks to begin with, but Shermaine had done some touch–ups on his appearance, plus his hairstyle had changed completely- unless someone looked really closely, the chances of being recognized were pretty slim.
Besides, not many people had actually seen Joshua on the ship anyway, except for Simon.
Even if Simon showed up, he probably wouldn’t recognize him without getting up close.
Shermaine and Joshua were the last ones to arrive at the banquet hall, walking into a scene of music, clinking glasses, and cheerful laughter from well- dressed guests.
A long oval table dominated the center of the room, with elegantly dressed hostesses serving course after course.
Bronx stood at the podium giving his speech, basically rambling on about nothing important.
Shermaine and Joshua found their seats and sat down.
A hostess immediately set wine glasses and plates in front of them,
“Tonight, we’re going to make sure everyone has a beautiful evening, and after dinner, there’ll be some exciting entertainment–so stay tuned, everyone,” Bronx said.
Simon kept staring at Shermaine and the man she’d brought with her.
‘Who the hell is this guy?‘ Simon studied him carefully. ‘Damn, this man’s even better looking than Cain.‘
He noticed how the man’s hand rested on Boa’s waist and never moved away.
Though nothing seemed overly intimate, anyone could tell there was something special between them, which meant their relationship was definitely not ordinary.

Chapter 494
Simon called over one of his men. “Find out where Cain is right now.”
The bodyguard who came over got the message and immediately went to handle it.
Soon, Simon received a message on his Orthish from the bodyguard saying that Cain had been staying in his hotel room the whole time.
Ever since Cain got off the ship, Bronx had been watching him, tracking his every move.
“Are you sure about that?” Simon asked.
“We sent a hotel worker to check it out. He’s definitely in his room and hasn’t made a peep,” the bodyguard replied.
Simon let out a cold laugh. He thought, ‘Maybe Cain chickened out and doesn’t dare show up here. If he had the guts to come, he’d be walking straight into his grave. So Boa Hanks has more than just Cain
as her man.‘
“Oh my God, Boa, isn’t your boyfriend Cain?” asked the man sitting beside Boa.
