“Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your patience. Let us wee the star of tonight, Madam L!”


    Apuse erupted in the hall.


    “L! L!” Alyssa cheered happily and pped hard.


    At that moment, Winston, looking dapper in a ck tuxedo, led L onto the stage.


    “Damn! Dad looks incredibly handsome,” Cyrus remarked, impressed by Winston’s youthful


    appearance.


    “He might have overdressed for the asion, don’t you think? People might mistake him for getting


    married a second time,” Ssmented, his gaze fixed on the stage with keen interest.

    “It would have been his fifth wedding,” Landon corrected while ying with Lauren’s hand.


    He joked, “Not too bad. At least I can still count with one hand.”


    He made a face and behaved himself when Mandy and Colene red at him.


    Ss, feeling hungry, swiped a piece of dessert and sneaked it into his mouth when no one was


    looking. However, Rose, seated at another table, caught his sly move and yfully called him out,


    “Hey, why are


    you eating like a thief, Mr. Taylor?”


    Startled, Ss choked on his dessert and coughed, his face turning red. He had to pat his chest and


    gulp down some water, while Rose chuckled at theical moment.


    Meanwhile, Ss was left wondering if Rose had been sent to mess with him. After crashing into his


    car, she had made him choke on food, and she had even received Alyssa’s backing!


    “What’s wrong with eating the food at my family dinner?” Ss shot a frustrated and annoyed look at


    Rose.


    “Well, you ate ahead of everyone else at the table. Where are your manners?” she retorted, resting her


    chin on the back of her seat as she turned around with a cheeky smile that bore a striking resemnce


    to Alyssa.


    Ss’ anger went away when he saw her smile.


    “Wow, have you seen that stunning ck and red dress Madam L is wearing?”


    “Yes, I noticed it as soon as she stepped on stage. She looks absolutely gorgeous.”


    The audience couldn’t take their eyes off L’s dress, gasping in awe. Jasper turned to look at L,


    visibly surprised. Wasn’t that the same dress he had seen hanging in Rose’s studio, which was


    Alyssa’s


    Sharon’s design?”


    “What? Sharon’s design?”


    “Goodness gracious, I’m honored to see her designs with my own eyes.’
