Chapter 213: Chapter 213

Very quickly, Micah Moss returned with information. He began, "Over at Thea’s Jewelry, the Faulkner Family’s second young master, Jasper Faulkner, is making an appearance, and the media are quite excited."

At the mention of Jasper Faulkner’s name, Hazel Langley’s body stiffened, her face turning somewhat pale.

In her usual work, she typically never encountered Jasper. Previously, he was with a company overseas, making any intersection between them impossible.

She had always learned about Jasper through the media.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, their meeting was under such circumstances. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ n̷o̷v̷e̷l̷f̷i̷r̷e̷.net

No matter how much she tried to bury those feelings deep in her heart, she couldn’t remain calm whenever his name was mentioned.

After all, he was engraved into her very bones...

Seeing Hazel Langley’s complexion was not good, Eleanor Sterling asked, "What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Hazel promptly gathered herself and shook her head, "No, maybe the air conditioning is too low, it’s a bit cold."

Eleanor was not suspicious and turned to An-An, "An-An, go and get a coat for Hazel."

An-An: "Sure, I’ll go right away."

Having won an actress award, Hazel’s emotions shifted quickly. After putting on the coat, she soon returned to normal.

Eleanor wanted to obtain Jasper Faulkner’s sample, so she had Alaric Faulkner invite him to the event to show support.

She thought that with Alaric’s demeanor, Jasper wouldn’t come, but he actually did.

Though he went to Faye Sterling’s side, it didn’t matter, Eleanor wasn’t too concerned. She planned to find him after the launch.

"An-An, get ready, inform the media that our launch is about to begin."

Excited by Eleanor’s designs themed around the four seasons, An-An nodded enthusiastically, "Okay, I’ll do it right away."

On Thea’s Jewelry side, having the support of the second young master meant they had already made a splash, even before starting, but they held the absolute strength here, sure to dazzle everyone.

At that moment, there was another burst of even more intense exclamations from outside.

Eleanor frowned and asked, "What’s going on? What’s Faye Sterling doing now?"

She already knew Faye invited the spokesperson Serena Quincy, whose level was nowhere near Hazel’s, so there was nothing to worry about.

The excitement just now was entirely because of Jasper Faulkner.

Yet suddenly there was another explosion, could it be that Faye pulled another stunt?

Thinking of this, Eleanor couldn’t resist and decided to take a look herself.

Unexpectedly, just as she stepped out from backstage, she was dumbfounded.

Damn it, she saw in the audience, the man who should have been in the hospital at this time, sitting there with an air of nonchalance.

Eleanor’s face turned grim as she walked up to him and said coldly, "What are you doing here!"

Did this man forget about his injuries?

He dared to openly run over here, recklessly risking his life.

It takes a hundred days to heal from bone and tendon injuries, did he think he was made of iron?

Alaric Faulkner curved his lips into a smile, "Your launch event, of course, I have to attend."

Eleanor retorted sarcastically, "Oh, President Faulkner, you sent Jasper to Faye’s event and then came to mine yourself. What kind of act is this?"

"What?" Alaric Faulkner looked surprised.

Behind him, Elijah Hayes, who had already smartly gathered the situation, quickly stepped forward and said, "President Faulkner, currently the second young master is sitting in the audience at Faye’s event."

Alaric’s face darkened, and he said coldly, "Tell him to get over here immediately."

"Yes." Elijah retreated.

Alaric looked at Eleanor, soothingly said, "That kid surely misunderstood, I meant for him to come support you."

As these words fell, all the media reporters squatting around were shocked.

What! Both Alaric Faulkner and Jasper Faulkner came to support Celeste Jewels?!
