Nicholas glared at Gabriel as he retorted. “Don’t try to twist the fact, lad! You’re the one who stole my ring, and the evidence points to you! No need for further proof!”Fiona sighed in frustration. She was so worried about Gabriel. For some reason, she still believed that Gabriel hadn’t stolen Nicholas’s ring.“I’ve been kind enough to offer 100,000 dollars to anyone who finds my ring. But this man, Gabriel Bruhn, chose to keep the ring. Therefore, for his action, he must be held accountable!” he declared.“I won’t let you leave here until you kneel at my feet and apologize!” Nicholas continued, his command making everyone gasp.A smirk tugged at the corner of Thais’ lips. He was pleased that his best friend had successfully avenged him.Gabriel’s eyes widened, and his fists clenched tightly. He would never do what Nicholas ordered because he felt innocent.“No, I won’t do that!” Gabriel yelled, undeterred.“Shut up, you cleaner’s son! I was so kind to let you come to my party, but

Nicholas crossed his arms across his stomach as he retorted, cornering Gabriel. All eyes were on Nicholas and Gabriel. Whispers from every corner spread through the air, most of the guests curious about Gabriel's identity."Who is that man? He looks unfamiliar, but somehow he came to the party with Pevita Leroy.""I can't deny that he is very handsome, but he came to this party just to get caught as a thief.""Did he come here with Pevita Leroy? I mean, can he pass through the entrance with her invitation, or does he have his own invitation here?""This is so embarrassing. How could someone with the mentality of a thief come to this party?"Nicholas only invited wealthy people, and most of them knew each other. If they didn't recognize the figure themselves, surely one of their friends did. As for Gabriel, they had no clue who he was."Everyone at this party saw that my ring was inside your blazer. That means you took it. How can you still have the audacity to say you didn't?" Nichola

In the middle of the dance, the announcement echoed again, making everyone fall silent and listen to what the announcement was about to say.“Ladies and gentlemen, we ask for your understanding regarding this matter. This ring is a Holtam family's ring and is very valuable, so we will be conducting a further search. We request permission to search your bags and pockets, and our staff will search you individually. We apologize for the inconvenience, but we have no other choice.”“Please don’t take this action as a sign that we are accusing you. We never had such thoughts.”Everyone exchanged glances as whispers were echoed through the air.“This is a bit rude, but it seems Nicholas had no other choice.”“Do you think someone found the ring and deliberately hid it?”“If the ring really was in someone’s bag or pocket, then that person must have been very panicked and nervous.”Pevita frowned and looked at Gabriel. “Wow, they really did everything for this ring. Do you think there is some

Gabriel smiled and teased Pevita. "It seems Nicholas Holtam has special feelings for you."Her eyes widened, and she stared at Gabriel, shaking her head, dismissing his suspicion. "No, he isn't!" Her eyes showed her unwillingness for Gabriel to think so, as Pevita secretly had special feelings for Gabriel instead of Nicholas Holtam.Music echoed throughout the yacht, and under the spotlights, the guests began dancing to the rhythm.Nicholas had his eyes set on Pevita. As he approached her to ask her to dance, he saw Gabriel had already asked her first.Nicholas's hands clenched tightly as his eyes darkened. "How dare he!"Just as Gabriel was about to touch Pevita's hand and was about to dance, his gaze caught Nicholas standing there, staring at him.Gabriel's eyes widened, and he let go of Pevita's hand. As he was about to speak to Nicholas, the man had already turned and left."What's wrong, Gabriel?" Pevita asked, turning to where Gabriel was staring. Nicholas had disappeared from t

Gabriel accepted the waitress's offer. He took off his suit blazer and handed it to her. The cleaner arrived and quickly cleaned up the broken, shattered glasses.At the same time, Alexis Blaise and Fiona Laurent arrived in the main party area. Seeing the new guests, Nicholas moved to greet them."Alexis, thank you for showing up at my birthday party," Nicholas said, shaking his hand and then hugging him.Alexis returned Nicholas's handshake. Nicholas's gaze shifted to Fiona, and with a respectful gesture, he extended his hand to shake hers."You must be Alexis' woman. You look so elegant, lady," he complimented her.Fiona let out a soft smile. "Thank you, Nicholas."Nicholas gestured with his hand to ask the waiter to bring two glasses of wine for Alexis and Fiona.As the wine glass was about to touch his lips, Alexis caught a familiar face in his sight. He lowered his glass slightly, resisting the urge to take a sip.He frowned as he stared intently at the person. Fiona noticed Alex

"Are they in a relationship?" Nicholas muttered to himself.His feet stepped toward them, and when Pevita caught Nicholas in her gaze, she flashed a wide smile."Nicholas Holtam, happy birthday to you!" Pevita spoke, extending her hand for a handshake.Nicholas smiled as he returned the handshake, but his eyes briefly glanced at Gabriel."Thank you so much for coming to my party, Pevita. I didn't expect you to come," he stated with a slight chuckle."You are such a good friend, Nicholas, and no way would I miss my friend's birthday party," Pevita replied.Pevita and Nicholas had been friends for a year. They met at a government event and had become close friends ever since. Pevita's charm and beauty made Nicholas gradually fall in love with her, although Pevita still considered him just a friend.As Nicholas's special guest, he had offered Pevita transportation from Valmont City and accommodation as well. However, Pevita politely declined the offer, preferring not to receive such spec
