A flash of jealousy flickered in Sharon Ainsworth's eyes, while Mrs. Ainsworth's eyes, for some reason, grew moist.
"Nora, that dress looks great on you."
Nora Ainsworth nodded. "Leon gave it to me."
Mrs. Ainsworth said with relief, "I'm very fond of Leon. I feel at ease entrusting you to him."
Just as she spoke, Sharon Ainsworth said in a low voice, "Dad, Auntie, Mr. and Mrs. Grant are here."
Mrs. Ainsworth stopped talking, a smile on her face as she greeted Mr. and Mrs. Grant.
After some pleasantries, Mrs. Ainsworth said to the younger group, "You youngsters go join Quentin. We elders are going to have a chat."
Sharon Ainsworth led the way, with Leon Lynch and Nora Ainsworth following behind.
After a few turns, they finally saw Quentin Grant by a sofa in a quiet corner.
He wasn't alone. Ethan Ellsworth and Chloe Marshall were there too, along with a devilishly handsome man she didn't recognize, who exuded a captivating charm as they chatted and laughed.
