Donovan tossed aside the cake knife, not even bothering to look at the cake with the “Happy” split in half–it just looked unlucky. His face set in a scowl. “Go check if anyone’s dead.”

As much as everyone wanted to watch the drama firsthand, nobody could just wander into someone else’s private living space.

The party was only halfway through, so only Yvonne, Sterling, Claudia, and the Lloyds went over as a group to handle things. Donovan and Simon stayed behind to keep the guests entertained.

A couple of the relatives exchanged knowing glances, found some excuse, and slipped out to follow along.

Donovan took a deep breath and managed a calm laugh with the guests. “Quinton’s not exactly young anymore, but he’s still so reckless. Sorry for letting you all see this mess.”

The others played along. “Every family’s got their headaches, Mr. Romero. But your grandkids have always made you proud. None of them has given you this kind of trouble.”

With all the polite small talk, things settled down quickly. But the real focus of the night had already quietly shifted to another topic.

Back in the day, Winnie and Quinton’s relationship had always been the talk of the town.

Before Quinton lost his legs, Winnie was always out there painting a picture of them as the perfect, loving couple.

She even mocked the other families and their messy scandals, claiming her marriage was different.

But now, their perfect marriage had come crashing down in public.

So much for “deeply in love“.

People exchanged knowing glances, barely hiding their glee as they gossiped about the drama.

Thanks to Claudia’s big mouth, all of Winnie’s old secrets were out for everyone to see.

Once Donovan had smoothed things over with the guests, he excused himself to get some rest. Once he was out of sight, he scowled and jabbed his cane in frustration.

These useless, ungrateful kids!

And that brat, Sterling. Of all people, why did he have to fall for that troublemaker, Claudia?

She’s not even married in yet, and she’s already giving me headaches!

The more he thought about that humiliating scene, the more he wanted to tear his hair out.

Meanwhile, the group that made it to Quinton and Winnie’s room was stunned.

No one thought it’d be this bad.

The room looked like a disaster zone. Quinton and Winnie both lay bruised and battered on the floor. No one could find the words.

Are these two even husband and wife?

They look more like enemies!

Sterling, who was last in, raised his brows at the chaos, a faint smile flickering in his eyes.

He turned his head, just in time to see Claudia shoot him a sly wink, looking both mischievous and proud.

He felt his heart flutter, and a warmth slowly spread. He could hardly explain the wonderful feeling.

If it weren’t for all the annoying people around, he’d have picked up his beloved Claudia and kissed her right then and there.

As for Quinton?

He was still breathing, so he wasn’t too worried.

Corbin’s face was dark with anger.

He told his wife and daughter to help Winnie up, then stalked over and gave Quinton an angry kick. “Quinton! I didn’t know beating your wife was your one talent!”

No matter how annoyed he’d been with Winnie’s attitude, she was still his sister, someone he’d loved and protected for half his life. Seeing her hurt like this drove him mad.
