Chapter 76 Meeting the Love Rival
But Byron was still drinking and didn't make a sound, but he took a rare look at Jane.
In the dim light, his deep and mysterious eyes seemed even more captivating, with a touch ofdebauchery on his handsome face due to the influence of alcohol. Even the mole in the corner of hiseye appeared more alluring.
Jane was deeply captivated by him with one glance but soon followed by her anxiety and concernover his lack of response.
The Yoris family was organizing such a grand birthday party for her this time as they wanted toexpedite finalizing her marriage plans with Byron.
However, if Byron couldn't even attend her party, she didn't know how to face her parents,grandparents, and all her uncles and aunts when she returned.
Just as Jane's mind was spinning with anxiety, Harry spoke up, "Jane, isn't this needless concern?With your relationship with Byron, even if you don't invite him to your birthday party, he willdefinitely show up.”
Actually, Byron would come over today and join them for the party, which was arranged by Harry tohelp Jane.
At this juncture, he naturally couldn't just stand by and watch Jane feel embarrassed.
"Is that so?" Jane smiled and looked at Byron again.
Although Byron did not respond to either of them, he also did not refute their words.
With that, Jane's anxious heart finally settled down, and after chatting and laughing with Harry for awhile, she suddenly shifted her gaze to Carter, who was quietly drinking in the corner.
"Carter, when the time comes, you can invite Dr. Lane to the party as well.”
As soon as the words fell, Carter's hand holding the drink froze imperceptibly.
Not only Carter, but even the smile on Harry's face also inevitably frozen.
It was because he wasn't sure whether Jane intended to throw a birthday party for herself or meetwith her love rival!
But Jane seemed oblivious to their unusual expressions and continued to smile, saying, "I remembershe's on the weekend off. Let's invite her to come and have fun with everyone, to relax a bit!"After Jane decided to hold the birthday party, she specifically checked Cora's schedule.
In fact, Jane had already noticed the change in attitude from both Byron and Carter towards Corasince their encounter at the elevator when Harry was discharged from the hospital.
But she wasn't sure if Carter had broken up with Cora, so she wanted to take this opportunity to testCora whether she could gain attention in front of Byron or not.
However, her seemingly clever test appeared rather foolish in the eyes of these men
Carter couldn't easily answer questions about Cora, so he didn't respond to Jane immediately.Instead, he pushed up his glasses and looked at Byron for instruction.
Byron was smoking a cigarette, his other hand turning the lighter.
Upon seeing the inquiring eyes from Carter, his hand that was turning lighter paused, and he notonly nodded but also spoke up, "Sure."
Harry was stunned when he witnessed it all.
Byron neglected everything about Jane but readily answered anything about Cora.
This was clearly a double-standard situation!
At that moment, Harry felt so sorry for Jane, fearing that Byron's attitude would hurt her.
But as he turned around, he saw that Jane, after only a brief hesitation, had already handed thebirthday party invitation card and schedule to Carter.
"Carter, please take these to Dr. Lane. Oh, and remind her to bring sunscreen and a swimsuit. If theweather permits, we can go swimming.”
Jane hadn't expected Byron actually to respond to the matter about Cora. She didn't receive suchtreatment herself.
But then she thought that since Carter was also from one of the four prominent families in NewYork, he gave up competing for the Pope family's inheritance and chose to work with Byron, sonaturally, Byron appreciated him.
And so, she believed that Carter had asked Byron for permission regarding Cora's participation inthe birthday party, and Byron responded because he didn't want to embarrass Carter.
Of course, what surprised Jane even more was that Carter hadn't broken up with Cora yet.
But in her opinion, it was just a matter of time. The incident where Cora accompanied another manfor drinks last time definitely caused an unpleasant situation between them.
Once there was a crack in their relationship, it was like a domino effect that one pushed, and itwould easily collapse.
Even if their relationship hadn't ruptured yet, Jane would definitely replace a way to make theirrelationship collapse during the overnight party on the cruise.
However, Jane believed that her plan was flawless, unaware that the party schedule she had given toCarter was actually handed over to Cora by Byron himself.
