Chapter 1689

The next evening, Chandler held a birthday party for Maddie's two children and invited all the prominent figures in the city. The event was especially lively. Taylor, who had arrived early, stood in a corner with a glass of wine in his hand. He boredly observed the passing guests. As he glanced around casually, a familiar figure quickly caught his attention. Taylor casually passed the wine glass to a passing waiter and ran after the person. Eventually, he caught up with the woman beside a beautifully decorated pine tree. "I've finally found you." Taylor grabbed the woman's shoulder excitedly. "I knew you wouldn't miss an occasion like this." The woman turned, looking confused. "Do you know me?" Taylor's smile froze when he saw the unfamiliar face. He quickly withdrew his hand and apologized awkwardly, "Sorry, I think I mistook you for someone else." "Never mind. I'll get going if there's nothing else." "As you wish " The woman nodded with a smile before walking into the crowd.
