Chapter 341 Tumbling Down the Stairs
Saltoban had arranged Erica’s birthday party at the largest hotel in the capital of Sagrado.
This hotel was exclusively for the upper class, and it was a favoured venue for their gatherings.
The sprawling hotel was massive, and it could accommodate thousands of
guests.
Kate wore a black evening gown embellished with tiny diamonds, shimmering with every movement. She looked stunning in it.
She looked like a nighttime fairy, her long hair casually draped over her shoulders and her makeup exquisitely done.
Edward wore a black suit. Standing together, they made a striking pair. Kate entered the hall holding Edward’s arm. Linus and George discreetly slipped into the party, lurking among the crowds.
The banquet was grand, with all of Sagrado’s prominent figures in attendance.
Erica was in her room on the second floor. She wore a flowing white gown adorned with delicate diamond details, making her look like an angel. Her makeup was equally perfect, enhancing her already otherworldly beauty.
Admiring her reflection in the mirror, Erica’s heart swelled with happiness. She glanced towards. the adjacent room.
The door soon opened, and Eric emerged in a dark gray suit. His expression was impassive.
Even though the suit’s design was somewhat ordinary, Eric’s excellent physique and handsome features made any clothing he wore exude an inexplicable air of nobility.
“Eric!”
Erica ran up to him joyfully, but stopped a couple of metres away, not daring to get too close. She shyly looked at him and asked, “Eric, do I look beautiful?”
She twirled in front of him, holding the hem of her dress.
Eric responded with a perfunctory grunt, and his expression was still blank.
Though slightly disappointed by his lack of enthusiasm, Erica’s spirits lifted just because he answered.
“Eric, do you
know that this party held by Daddy is not just for celebrating my birthday tonight?” Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
When Erica thought of what would take place later, she couldn’t help but feel excited.
Eric glanced at her coldly and said nothing.
Meanwhile, Saltoban stood at the center of the stage, holding a microphone, and delivered a

speech to thank everyone for coming to celebrate Erica’s birthday. He then hinted at a significant
announcement.
Kate was seated in a corner. She kept her eyes fixed on Saltoban.
Meanwhile, Edward subtly scanned the room, matching faces with the information he had.
Saltoban was beaming as he said slowly. “Tonight is not only my daughter Erica’s birthday celebration, but I also have exciting news to announce! My daughter has finally found the person she wants to spend the rest of her life with.”
As his words echoed, the lights in the banquet hall dimmed, and a spotlight focused on the staircase on the second floor.
Erica wore a bright smile on her face. She turned to look at Eric and said, “Eric.”
Before she could finish her sentence, her expression suddenly changed.
A sharp pain shot through her knee, causing her to lose her balance and tumble towards the
stairs.
Panicking, Erica reached out to grab Eric’s hand. Eric stepped forward, concern flashing on his face as he tried to catch her, but his hand closed on empty air.
“Ahhh!”
A piercing scream filled the room as Erica, under the spotlight’s glare, tumbled down the stairs from the second floor.
