There was music playing in the banquet hall, and the child happened to be right next to the stereo. His cries were completely covered, and only those who were sitting close to him could hear him.

Quinn ran over and helped the child up. As he patted the dust off the child’s body, he was surprised by the cold attitude of these people.

Quinn was the furthest away from him. He thought that Cynthia Finley, who was the closest to the child, would help him up. But to his surprise, Cynthia was indifferent. The others were the same. They looked at him coldly and swept their gazes away.

It was indeed a little strange. After sending the little boy back to his mother, Quinn returned to his team.

After returning, Quinn realized that the atmosphere here was even stranger than before.

Cynthia, who was the closest to the little boy, was extremely pale. One of her hands was clutching her chest. She looked extremely weak, as if she was about to throw up.

Jaxon, who was sitting next to Cynthia, was frowning as he spoke to her. It was unknown what he said, but Cynthia slowly calmed down.

“She’s fine. She just ate something bad and her stomach feels a little uncomfortable. I’ll take her to rest for a while.”

After Jaxon’s explanation, the others didn’t ask any more questions.

Quinn sat for a while and realized that he was really bored. He found an excuse to walk away and even shook off his assistant.

He walked around casually and arrived at the buffet table.

He had been craving for this chocolate cake for a long time. After he ditched his assistant, Quinn decided to go to a corner and secretly eat a piece.

At worst, he could just walk home today!

There was only one piece of chocolate cake left. Quinn went to get a fork and a plate, but when he came back, he found that Lauren was also there!

“Why are you here?!” Lauren was the first to ask in surprise.

“You question me first even before I ask you?”

Quinn went forward to get the chocolate cake as he spoke.

Lauren saw it and became anxious. “I want to eat that cake!”

“Why? I took a fancy to it first!”

“I am here first! If it weren’t for you, I would have eaten it already!”

Isaac had specially found someone to style Lauren’s hair. Her long hair was braided into many braids and all of them were tied together. There was also an exquisite princess crown on her head.

Together with Lauren’s exquisite facial features and chubby face, she looked really cute.

‘Hold on!’ Quinn snapped out of his daze.

‘I can’t let this little brat take the last piece of cake away.’

Both of them pulled and tugged, but in the end, neither of them managed to eat the cake.

Because the cake… fell to the ground.

“Look! Now no one will be able to eat it!”
