“If we work hard enough, we might even be able to live in The Grand Garden. When that day comes, I
will be really content. By the way, I heard that the villa at the Grand Garden has an attached swimming
pool. Matthew, imagine our future children playing in the pool, while we lounge about and to watch the
sunset; how enjoyable it’ll be! I really hope we can have that someday!”
Sasha's face was full of longing as she gazed off into the distance.
Matthew looked at her beautiful face and made a promise in his heart. Sasha, this day is coming! After
I cure Natalie, we will go live in the Grand Garden. Everything that you want will be yours!
During dinner, Matthew’s phone rang.
He took out his phone and looked at it. Turned out it was Leanna who was calling. © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Matthew got up and was about to go into the bedroom to answer the phone when James yelled angrily,
"Wait! Pick it up right here! Why so secretive about it?”
Matthew was irritated. After all, they had an argument last night because of Leanna Sandel, hence his
decision to go into the bedroom to answer the call.
“Dad, it's Matthew’s personal phone call; why do you have to butt in?” said Sasha as she glanced at
him.
"What personal phone call? Just pick it up here! We won’t disturb him,” said James.
Sasha was about to speak when Matthew interrupted. "Okay." He answered a phone call and turned on
the speakerphone. “Miss Sandel, is anything wrong?”
Leanna’s voice came over the speaker. "Hello, Mr. Larson.”
As they heard her voice, James and Helen’s expressions grew cold, and they wanted to throw a fuss.
However, the two were afraid of Leanna, so they did not dare to make a sound.
“There is a cocktail party tomorrow night, and some businessmen will be in attendance. I'd like to invite
you and Mrs. Larson to attend. I wonder if the both of you are free?” Leanna asked.
James and Helen shook their heads vigorously and motioned for Matthew to not accept.
However, Sasha interrupted. "Thank you for the invitation, Leanna. Let us know the details, and
Matthew and I will be there!”
Leanna chuckled. "Hello, Mrs. Larson. It’s tomorrow night, seven thirty at Cloud Nine Villa. Just give my
name once you have arrived."
Eyes wide, James and Helen couldn’t help but stutter, "C-Cloud Nine Cocktail Party?”
"Who is that?" asked Leanna, surprised.
Sasha was also shocked, so Matthew hurriedly said, "Sorry, we are having dinner with our family. Miss
Sandel, we'll be there on time tomorrow. Thank you!”
"You're welcome. I'll be waiting for you tomorrow!” said Leanna.
Leanna hung up the phone, and James and Helen were still in shock. "Did I hear her correctly? D-Did
she say Cloud Nine Villa?”
James was shocked to no end, while Helen was tongue-tied.
Sasha looked to Matthew and asked, "Did Leanna just invite us to the Cloud Nine Cocktail Party? D-
Did I hear her right?”
"What is this Cloud Nine Cocktail Party?" Matthew was slightly confused.
James stared at Matthew. “Don't you know? It's a banquet that has existed for more than 20 years in
Eastcliff, and is where Eastcliff and Eastshire’s businessmen and entrepreneurs gather. A lot of big
businesses are negotiated in this cocktail party. This is the best place to expand your network! It is held
once a month, and the venue is always in Cloud Nine Villa. The banquet was initiated by the Ten
Greatest Families of Eastcliff. Each family takes turns each year to be in charge of the banquet
reception. However, after Leanna Sandel rose to power, the reception has been managed by her for
three years in a row. In Eastcliff, the only way to know if you’re considered as high society is by
participating in the cocktail party at Cloud Nine Villa!”
