Jessica's birthday party was held at the Ritz—Carlton New York, Battery Park Hotel, a five—star triple—A hotel.
The banquet was extremely grand. Jessica was wearing an ice—blue gown decorated with pearls, and the makeup on her face was exquisite. She walked up to Lucas and Terry with a smile. "Mr. Davison, Mr. Thomas, thank you for coming to my birthday party."
Jessica put on a proper smile, both polite and distant.
Lucas looked at Jessica. He felt a sting in his heart when he saw the distance in Jessica's bright eyes.
Terry didn't seem to mind that. He raised his goblet and clinked it against Jessica's. "Miss Hall, you look stunning tonight."
Jessica smiled. "Thank you."
Lucas, who was standing over, only found the scene annoying. He tightened his grip on his goblet.
Lucas tried to say something nice to Jessica, yet he just didn't have Terry's glib tongue.
In the end, Lucas said nothing.
