“There are tons of desserts tonight. If you’re tired, just sit down, grab some food, and take a break,” Jasper said casually, acting like he cared.

Claudia suddenly gave a wicked grin. “Do you truly think this engagement is happening tonight?”

He pursed his lips. “Of course. I’ll do whatever it takes to make it happen.”

Fabio Lambert flushed with anger, glaring at her. “You think your parents throwing you a party means you’ve got backup? You’ll never match up to Lydia.”

He’d been watching. Wilson and Clarence were busy introducing Claudia to everyone.

Lydia was nowhere in sight, and even when she showed up, nobody paid attention.
