Meet My Brothers

It seemed inevitable that Alison would enlist the services of a lawyer to commence the divorce proceedings, a move that would undoubtedly work in her favor. Luna couldn't envision any other hidden intricacies.

Meanwhile, Mia stepped aside to oversee the entire banquet setup, ensuring every detail was flawless. Today's birthday theme was her brainchild, tailored especially for children. Perhaps witnessing today's event setup at Aide Castle Hotel would inspire attendees to plan their children's birthday celebrations here, choosing a similarly themed hall. Shortly thereafter, Luna was spotted strolling alongside Raymond, with Asher in tow, a self-satisfied expression gracing her features.

Mia believed that today marked the apex of Luna's life, following all the planning and struggles to establish herself.

However, for some, the higher they ascend, the more deadly the potential fall.

The ache of yearning for the unattainable was one matter, but the torment of losing something once possessed was a hundred times worse.

At that moment, Raymond approached the microphone and conveyed his gratitude to everyone present.

Glancing at Asher by his side, he continued, "Throughout all these years, our family has been without children. Luna's son appears to be a perfect addition. "From this day forward, he will bear the Shelbert last name and be embraced as a member of our family, my grandson."

As Raymond concluded his speech, the room erupted into applause. Luna finally displayed a relieved expression-her goal had been achieved at last.

She could almost envision Asher growing up and inheriting all of Raymond's wealth. By then, she would also be affluent and no longer subjected to disdain.

"Wait a minute."

At that instant, Jasmine's voice shattered the mood, capturing everyone's focus as she entered the banquet hall.

She adorned a chic black evening gown, her features devoid of heavy makeup except for a striking red lipstick. Despite this, she emitted a commanding presence. S

Witnessing Jasmine's metamorphosis, a hint of satisfaction flickered in Mia's eyes. It appeared that the once timid woman had finally come into her own.

As Jasmine made her entrance, murmurs rippled through the guests, sparking conversations among them.

Of course, they couldn't openly delve into Raymond's private affairs, but beneath the surface, everyone was well aware of the situation. After all, hidden secrets were commonplace in affluent families.

Upon spotting Jasmine's arrival, Luna's expression contorted with frustration, her brows furrowing together.

Mia's earlier remarks had already

unsettled her, and now Jasmine's sudden appearance only

exacerbated her irritation. What was the purpose of this woman's

presence, anyway?

Despite her inner turmoil, Luna forced a smile and addressed Raymond, "Dad, Jazzy is here."Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Upon hearing Luna's announcement, Raymond's expression darkened. Jasmine's revelation about Luna being his illegitimate daughter had deeply shaken him.

To make matters worse, this information had been weaponized by his rivals to undermine him.

Despite Raymond's swift response, the incident had left a lasting impression, and he felt profoundly let down by Jasmine.

Now, with Jasmine unexpectedly appearing in a black dress, no one could decipher her intentions.

Addressing Jasmine, Raymond's voice dropped as he cautioned, "What more are you after? I advise you to think twice before making any hasty decisions."

A smile played on Jasmine's lips as she responded, "Dad, what's with the tension? I'm here today to celebrate my little brother's birthday."

Jasmine's reference to Asher as her brother sent Luna's thoughts spinning, though she couldn't quite grasp the significance.

Nevertheless, Luna couldn't ignore the warning signs flashing in her mind.
