Chapter 3
After the car stopped, Vincent didn’t wait for her and entered the door first.
Sophie followed him into the verate and only then realized it was a birthday banquet.
However, the protagonist was not her, but someone else.
Watching Mia, who stood at the center of the stage surrounded by stars, Sophie instantly understood that she was the protagonist of this banquet.
She wore a glamorous haute couture gown, complemented by a custom–made diamond necklace that accentuated her slender neck. The pearl earrings by her ears sparkled like drops of mermaid tears, captivatingly beautiful and impossible to look away from
Sophie stared at the jewelry for a long time.
She was familiar with these jewelry by heart.
No other reason, just because these things were always displayed in Vincent’s showcase before they were used.
When she didn’t know the truth, she thought that these were all gifts he had prepared for her, and she had been looking forward to it for a long time.
But so much time has passed, year after year, and every year he would prepare, but never actually bring it out. Slowly, she also forgot.
Not
until today did she realize that all of this was actually meant for Mix
Perhaps noticing her gaze, , Mia lifted her skirt and approached with a gentle smile on her lips.
“Vince, is this the girlfriend you’ve been talking about for six years and promised to show me? She’s really beautiful, no wonder she could steal the heart of our school’s heartthrob.”
It turned out that Mia said she wanted to see her, no wonder Vincent would bring her over out of character.
Sophie finally understood his intention and chuckled self–deprecatingly.
Several of his brothers walked over when they saw the sinuation, and stood by, indignantly joining
“Yeah, we dated for six years, and Vince was really obedient and loyal! I also hope that certain people can keep their promises and stop playing these strange tests.”
There are many sincere
people these days, cherish it if you can get one, if you really let them down, there will be no time for regrets.
The brothers shamelessly covered for Vincent, thinking that Sophie wouldn’t notice.

She was just as they had imagined, without any expression, and casually found a seat.
Quietly playing, she assumed the role of a vase girlfriend, whose riddles could not be guessed.
All night long, Sophie never left her seat, quietly watching Vincent who was following behind Mia
He never liked socializing, but he would accompany Mia and the young gentlemen in the circle to exchange pleasantries.
Although he had a personality that was not interested in anything, he remembered Mia’s forbidden preferences and protected her from alcohol.
girlfriend was right there, but he got jealous and had a black lace because Mia shook hands with another man.
His
just a few hours, Sophie saw Vincent’s unintentional concern when he liked someone
They had been together for six years before she finally saw what his lover looked like.
After singing the birthday song on the stage, everyone rushed up to give birthday presents
yes and at the corners of his mouth.
Vincent took out a minor deed, with warmth in his eyes
“Mimi, you once said that yo
you wanted a cozy home, so I gave you an estate, hoping that your wish would come true.”
Upon hearing these words, several brothers around immediately joined in and started to cheer.
“You didn’t know, all the rooms in this mansion were designed by Vince himself, and it took a whole six years to complete the decoration!”
“I heard that the backyard was filled with lavender and tulips, I wonder whose favorites these flowers were?”
“A warm home, in my opinion, must have a male host to be considered warm. Don’t you think so?
Mia’s face slowly turned crimson amidst the mocking volors.

She quickly closed her palms, making a gesture as if she was about to make a wish, and everyone fell silent.
In the silence, Sophie’s phone rang a few times.
It was a voice message sent by Dad. She was about to long–press to convert it to text, but accidentally clicked on play.
“Soph, happy birthday! It’s almost midnight. Did you have any cake?”
The gaze
that was originally focused on Mia instantly shifted to Sophie, all with a sense of shock.
Vincent also paused for a few seconds, turned around to look at her, with a slight frown on his forehead.
“Soph, is today your birthday?”
Sophie’s face showed no expression as she nodded g
gently.
In the past, Vincent used to ask in advance about the date and prepare a gift.
This year, he bumped into Mia’s birthday and completely forgot, as if it was normal.
No one had expected to encounter such a coincidence, and for a moment, they all looked at each other in surprise.
In the end, Mia made a compromise. She took Sophie by the hand and walked up to the cake, personally lighting a candle.
“Since it’s such a coincidence, let’s celebrate together. Maybe you can make a wish too.”
Sophie did not refuse, she closed her eyes.
While she finished making her wish, Vincent casually asked a question in order to break the awloward atmosphere at the scene.
“What wishes did you make? Do you have any desired gifts?”
Sophie glanced at him and spoke lightly.
“I hope to get married smoothly within this year.
