Did she really think that she could do as she pleased just because Landon was protecting her?Betty thought menacingly, “I going to kill you if it's the last thing I do!"Though Sophia had insisted on a low-profile celebration, she had still allowed the media to get word of it.After all, she needed it like a fish needed water.The reporters were pawere pacing around the hotel prior to Sophia's arrival. They quickly surrounded her whenshe arrived, though she remained behind a circle of bodyguards as she walked into the hotel, looking likesome kind of big shot.“Mrs. Beckett!”“Madam Sophia!”The reporters cried, snapping all the photos they could get of her and her family.Javier was displeased with this turn of events but remained indifferent before the reporters.“Your family has arrived for your wife's birthday celebration, Mr. Javier, but why isn't Mr. Jasper here?” Areporter asked.After all, it would be unbecoming of a reporter not to get a little nosy.“Jasper’s occupied, so he had to skip tonight's event,” Javier replied lightly, nodding at the reporter. “Madam Sophia, your birthday supposedly falls on Wednesday instead of tonight, yet you're only celebrating it tonight. Could it have something to do with tonight being KS Group's President, WinstonTaylor's third wife, Lyla's birthday?“Did you planyou plan to celebrate your birthday on the same night as hers?

She had clearly invited over a hundred quests two weeks ago, and most of them hadagreed to attend!Had they not come?Sophia forced another smile, though she was as tense as a pulled howstring right now."Why don't we head inside first? Javier urged quietly.They walked to the hotel's entrance, where two of the staff opened the grand doors for themThe moment they did, both Javier and Sophia's expressions froze on their faces. Sophia's face turnedwhite as a sheet. She had to bite her lip to keep from screaming out.There were less than a handful of quests in the large, spacious ballroom! Her fantasy of a hall filled with women in flowing gowns and men in crisp suits was gone just like that!Where was everyone?
