Alexander glanced at Long Jie coldly, making the other feel a cold chill passing through his body. But, of course, he was only asking because his third brother looked at him with a passionate gaze, who knew that he would be so offended!

"Haha… I'm just joking." Long Jie awkwardly said as he swiftly went to Reo's side. "Brother, don't you think Alexander's alright? Just because his wife isn't here with him, he's already glaring everyone else with a deadly look."

Reo raised an eyebrow as he felt Long Jie's hand on his elbow, "Or maybe you're too annoying."

Long Jie: "…"

Sadly, Long Jie did not get the security he wanted from Reo and pouted. What's wrong with his brothers? Why won't they show this poor brother of theirs some affection?

"Speaking of his wife…" started Lucas, who went to their side. "It hasn't been that long since they got married, right? Shouldn't Alexander let us meet her?"

"Well, I doubt he would let us see her considering how possessive his character has always been," Reo uttered, and no one disagreed with him.

Since they were young, Alexander did not like it when others touched the toys he wanted. He was even involved in a fistfight whenever someone tried to take away what was his. Reo, being the one who frequently tried to piss him off, would naturally know what kind of madness Alexander would show when he's pissed.

"We'll have to wait for him to take her for us to meet her." He added.

Long Jie shook his head and smilingly said, "I already met her before."

Reo and Lucas turned to him.

"You have?"

"Yes, it was two years ago." Long Jie told them. "Alexander took her to his mansion that same night he met her the first time."

Lucas frowned. "What do you mean by that? He took her to his house when they just met each other for the first time?"

Long Jie nodded." When I first saw her, third brother was utterly entranced by her I almost thought he brought a clone of himself! I never knew that or cold brother who never smiled at others could look at someone else with love."

Reo and Lucas hadn't been there two years ago. Thus, they didn't witness this once-in-a-lifetime moment where Alexander was treating Yan Xiaoran so preciously and even served her so well that the servants back at the mansion would be ashamed of themselves.

At that time, Long Jie visited the mansion because he heard about this from Haruka. OF course, he didn't believe it at first, but after seeing Yn Xiaoran inside the mansion and eating with them at the dining table, he now believed that there was a miracle.

He even thought that Alexander abducted yan Xiaoran.

Thankfully, she wasn't.

Reo and Lucas had a look as if they were constipated when they imagined Alexander staring at someone like an old fool crazily in love. They couldn't imagine it.

"I'm telling the truth!" Long Jie told them.

"What truth?"

A cold voice sounded from behind him. Long Jie's skin shook in waves as he could already see himself hanging upside down while Alexander treats him as a punching bag.

"Bro-brother…"

Gazing down at this foolish brother of his, Alexander coldly said, "Be careful with your tongue. It wouldn't be good if Uncle met his son tomorrow without a tongue."

Long Jie: "!!!"

This bastard is so scary!

Alexander also swept an unhurried glance at Reo and Lucas, who seemed to be smiling wickedly at him as if they found a secret and did not want to tell him.

Ignoring these two housewives*, Alexander turned around to look towards Yan Xiaoran's direction once again. However, when his eyes landed on that side of the hall, he could no longer see her standing there.

On the other hand, Yan Xiaoran pulled Shen Liu with him and hurriedly walked into the corridor.

"Where are we going?" Shen Liu asked.

"I saw someone unpleasant." She vaguely said, making Shen Liu even more confused. "Anyway, don't say anything and follow me. It was really a mistake of me to bring you here."

A few minutes ago, Yan Xiaoran caught a glimpse of a man standing on the other corner of the hall. When she saw him, she thought that he looked familiar, but she was sure that she never met him.

As she wanted to ignore the other man, the man turned to his side and revealed a scar on his cheek. And that's when Yan Xiaoran realized who he was.

Jack Winters.

He was a heinous criminal and part of the American Gang, the Black Skull. The high society had little to no knowledge about Jack Winters, and being invited here was impossible since Adam would've known he was when his name was put into the guest list.

But what if Jack entered under an alias like her? Or perhaps, he sneaked in without anyone noticing by becoming someone's partner.

Nevertheless, even he came as a partner or under an alias. Yan Xiaoran knew that Jack was an extremely dangerous man.

She read it once in one of the thousand files that Madam Giselle made her read. Amongst these files was Jack Winters' file where it contained his background and information.

"I'll take you back to the parking lot. You'll take the car and leave this place as soon as possible." She told her partner for the night.

"I'm going alone? What about you?"

Shaking her head, Yan Xiaoran said, "I still need to do something."

Yan Xiaoran opened her purse and gave the car key to him. "Drive back to the hotel room where we first used to change. Do not look back nor return."

Shen Liu finally understood the reason why Yan Xiaroan was acting like this. Seeing the graveness in her eyes, it seems that the part was no longer safe to them.

"But what about you? Won't it be better if we both leave the party together?"

Just as he asked this, the door they used to enter this corridor was suddenly pulled open. Yan Xiaoran only needed a glance for her to know who it was and pulled Shen Liu to the side.

Jack followed them.
