Jackson smiled, "Ma'am, you're finally back. Mr. Moore is going to attend a party tonight and he insists you and Waylon go with him. The makeup artist is waiting upstairs and your dress is ready. Please hurry and get changed. Time is running out."
Eleanor was puzzled. "What kind of party is it?"
Jackson shook his head with an apologetic smile. "Ma'am, I didn't ask Mr. Moore about it. He's in the study upstairs. You can go and ask him. I'd better go get other things done."
Jackson left with a smile on his face. He knew instinctively that Sebastian and Eleanor were growing closer.
Samuel was right about Eleanor.
Sebastian really changed a lot for her.
Eleanor went upstairs and headed straight to the study.
"Mr. Moore, are you sure I'm going too?" Eleanor looked over and saw Sebastian sitting by the window alone. Such a sight elicited a surge of pity from her.
His face wore a blank expression. At the sound of her voice, he glanced at her from the corner of his eye.
"Nathan sent me the invitation. I thought you'd like to go," he said absently.
Then he noticed a flicker of delight shining in her eyes. "I'll go then. Gotta get changed now."
Eleanor exited the room with a smile lingering on her lips, without noticing the dejected look on Sebastian's handsome face.
"She wouldn't go if it wasn't Nathan's party, right?" Sebastian wondered.
There was a cold glint in his dark eyes.
An hour later, Eleanor and Waylon came downstairs hand in hand. She was wearing a black knee- length dress. Jackson picked out the right dress for her. It wasn't revealing at all and instead made her look more charming.
Waylon was wearing a black suit and a bow tie. His hair was neatly combed back, revealing his rosy, cute face.
Sebastian's dark charming eyes narrowed as they roamed over Eleanor and Waylon. They looked very much like mother and son.
Christian was there as well, narrowing his eyes slightly as he stared at Eleanor and Waylon.
"Mr. Moore, it's time to go," Easton came in and said.
"Mhm!" Sebastian nodded.
They set off for the party.
At the same time, the Ryker family got the news that Eleanor would be at the party.
Gabriella and Caroline prepared lilies and intended to embarrass Eleanor by exposing her as a vile fraud in front of everyone.
Michael got the news too.
He was also ready to test Eleanor.
He would take Valentina with him to the party tonight.
Nathan was a big fan of fancy events. Tonight's party was held at Gretbert Hotel, the most deluxe hotel in Grona.
He greeted the guests at the door with his assistant.
Tonight, Nathan was wearing a red suit, which made him look more glamorous. A devastatingly handsome grin pulled up the corners of his mouth. He exuded what a playboy was all about, but he was still sexually attractive.
When he saw Sebastian and Eleanor coming over, his false smile abruptly became very gentle.
He gave Sebastian a slight nod.
Then he let his gentle obsidian eyes settle on Eleanor. "Ellie, here you are."
His voice was incredibly tender so that Eleanor could find him sincere.
"Nathan, congratulations!" Eleanor smiled.
Nathan's smile broadened as his eager eyes landed on her. "Ellie, congratulations to us. Without you, I wouldn't be where I am today. Thank you, my goddess." Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Eleanor's smile went stiff at that.
"Nathan, what the hell are you talking about in front of my husband?" she screamed at him in her head.
She then peeked at Sebastian out of the corner of her eye.
Sebastian's face grew black as a thundercloud and his hands gripped the armrests of his wheelchair tight. His anger boiled more and more fiercely and almost exploded.
Nathan couldn't care less about Sebastian's feelings.
He dropped his eyes to the little boy Eleanor was holding and looked surprised. "Ellie, is it your son?"
Eleanor thought, "Thankfully, he hasn't met my son before."
"This is Waylon. Waylon, this is Uncle Nathan."
Nathan immediately realized that this was Sebastian's son.
"Hello, Uncle Nathan!" Waylon greeted lukewarmly.
His gut feeling told him that Uncle Nathan was kinda a badass.
Nathan pursed his lips. "Hello there, Waylon. You and your dad have the same poker face."
Sebastian's usual calm demeanor fell away and instantly turned icy.
"Nathan, who are you calling a poker face?"
Nathan teased with an amused look on his face, "Your hearing is that poor at this young age? You're the one I'm talking about, obviously."
Sebastian was speechless with rage.
"Alright, Nathan. We're friends and Sebastian is my husband. We're all busy people, and finally, we've got the chance to get together. So, stop fighting over trivial things." Eleanor was a little annoyed, rubbing her forehead. She almost forgot that they were arch-rivals.
A gentle smile broke across Nathan's face. He looked as nice as he could be.
"Ellie, for your sake, I'll just let it go. Let's go inside. There are all your favorite dishes on the table. Among all the guests, I only care about your preference." Nathan asked his assistant Raymond to lead Eleanor and Sebastian inside.
Nathan stayed behind to greet the guests.
Raymond took them to a booth and sat them down.
Previously, Waylon was forbidden from attending such parties because Sebastian was afraid that he might be in danger if he was in the public eye.
Everyone was aware of Waylon's existence, but few knew what he looked like.
Eleanor gently stroked Waylon's head and whispered in his ear, "Sweetie, let's go get some yummy food."
"Hooray!" Waylon bobbed his head happily.
Eleanor and Waylon left their seats and went off while talking and laughing, which made Sebastian a little jealous.
Perceiving his jealousy, Christian looked at him and said, "Waylon has become much more cheerful since Eleanor came. He has smiled more these days than he did in the last 5 years."
Sebastian didn't deny this. Waylon had been much happier since Eleanor came.
Eleanor led Waylon to the food section and got him a plate so that he could get his own favorite food.
"Mommy, it's so lively here." Waylon didn't really like the hustle and bustle, but he liked being with his mom.
Wherever he was, he was happy with his mom around.
Eleanor's red lips curled in a smile. "Do you like it, sweetie?"
Waylon nodded quickly. "Yeah, I love it."
Eleanor smiled affectionately, "Sweetie, these ingredients here are top-notch and there is a rare infinite supply of lobsters over there. Eat more, okay?"
"Okay, Mom. I'll go get some lobsters. The steamed ones are my favorite. Mom, make me a dipping sauce later." Waylon scampered over to get lobsters.
Eleanor watched him from behind. He smiled more out there than at home.
She would try to take him out more often. Sebastian was overprotective of him.
Waylon stood on his tiptoes and picked up a large lobster with a pair of tongs.
Before he could put the lobster on his plate, it was suddenly snatched away.
Waylon's face changed as he looked at the woman in red standing beside him.
"Ma'am, there's many lobsters here. Why did you take mine?" Waylon asked angrily.
