* I'll keep my promise *

The Martin family always celebrates this event grandly, but nobody

knows the real reason why Mr. Martin celebrated this event so grandly.

" Wow, Alina, your grandfather arranged this year's party to be more

luxurious than last year. " Alina’s friend said in awe.

" Of course, this year was also exceptional for me," Alina said

meaningfully.

"What's so special about this year?" another friend asked curiously.

They were other spoiled wealthy businessmen's daughters, who always

licked her boots for a favor.

" you will see soon " Her eyes continuously turn to the entrance as she

talks to them.

Everyone started getting curious about the particular reason.

" "Hey Alina, when are you going to pick a husband for you, every year

all the single men try to woo you, but you refused them, this year also

no different, look how they were looking at you," a friend of hers said,

aiming around Alina where single men were drooling at the sight of her.

but Alina didn't look at them,

" Hey, are you crazy? Don't you know she already found her prince

charming,” another girl said, remembering that girl.

" But, “the first girl was about to say something when another girl glared

at her. so that she fell silent.

Mr. Martin, who was sitting at the front table, looked at his phone as he

stared at the photo.

It was a teen boy's pic; the look on that boy's face was gentle and

genius. He was smiling in that photo.

When he heard footsteps near him, he put away his phone and looked

at Mrs. Brown.

" come sit here." Mr. Martin said to Mr. Brown.

Mr. Brown sat next to Mr. Martin; she looked worried,

" what happened? You look pale." he worriedly asked Mrs. Brown.

Mr. Brown sighed, “I can't reach Rose, I don't think she will come, " she

felt hurt, just remembering how Rose refused to see her at the

shopping mall.

Mr. Martin falls silent; he knows the whole matter, it's already been over

15 years, yet that girl never shows any sign to forgive her mother,

He knew Nora Xiver was for that girl even better than her biological

mother; Nora loved that girl the same as her child. So for a better life,

Mr. Martin believes Rose is better now that she is with David.

That's why he never said anything on this matter; also, he doesn't want

to break Mr. Brown's heart.

Mrs. Brown understood his silence; she gave up long ago; she realized

this truth when her husband took Nora's name when he was on his

deathbed.

She knows she failed, and she also accepted that this was the

punishment that God snatched from her daughter and gave her to

Nora. It was God's justice; she snatched someone's husband,

someone's father, god snatched her only one daughter from her.

She was hoping to see her daughter now, nothing else. If she is happy

without her, then she is also happy for her daughter as a mother.

A while later, the crowd started screaming after seeing someone at the

entrance of the party.

Mr. Martin looked toward the gate and saw David, Liam, and Alex.

everyone was surprised seeing them,

" Oh God, I never expected David Xiver to come today, also see, it's

Liam Jones, "everyone started talking about them.

David wore a black tuxedo with a white dress shirt and a black

waistcoat. A cold aura was surrounding him, which was stopping others

from going near him.

Unlike David, Liam and Alex were like gentlemen; Liam was in a gray

tuxedo and Alex in the dark blue, putting a light smile on their face they

looked like gentle people.

When some businessmen tried to send their daughter to him, their

daughter begged for mercy; they knew they could admire him from far

away but did not dare to go to him.

Alina, looking at David, felt her breath stop for 5 seconds; she never

expected he would really come.

She hurriedly went to her grandfather,

"Grandpa," she called him excitedly.

Mr. Martin could see how happy his granddaughter was seeing David,

" Let's go with me to greet them," Mr. Martin stood up, and Alina held

his hand.

Mr. Martin and Alina both know that if she dares to go near him alone,

he will definitely insult her.

It would be alright for her if he insulted her when nobody was around,

but today, it won't be good for her reputation.

Mr. Martin and Alina made their way towards where David and Liam

stood with Alex.

Mr. Martin looked happily at David: “I'm delighted that you came, came,

and sat with us."

" Oh, Mr. Martin really aged, did you forget who forced me to come

here? " David said in his mocking voice. His eyes were sending glare

toward Mr. Martin; he didn't bother to look at Alina.

Alina was silent because she knew he would not answer her.

But Mr. Martin ignored him, and he already expected this kind of

behavior from David: "Don't worry, I'll keep my promise, he is coming

with his family ." Mr. Martin said.

Of course, he arranged everything, and it was also his luck that David's

grandfather agreed to come with his family.

David ignored him, and he sat at a table with Liam and Alex.

Alina let go of her grandfather's hand, "grandpa excuse me, I want to

use the washroom," saying that she went back to the mansion.

She hurriedly came back to her room and opened her secret locker.

She took out the box; it was the box that the man gave her, the liquid

drug Dream 30.

She opened the box and took the small bottle.

Alina raised the bottle in front of her and smiled wickedly " David finally

I can make you mine, today you have to accept me, I'll not give you any

chance to escape, I Alina Martin make you my husband,” she said to

herself. Her heart was dancing just thinking how David was going to be

her man today.

She put that small liquid bottle inside her purse and left her room.

She acted normal and went back to the party.
