Everyone in the ballroom, including Leah, turned to look at the person making such a bold statement at the entrance.

A dangerously good-looking man wearing a black coat stood there. Leah’s jaw dropped as she recognized him.

He was the one who saved her in the underground casino. She shivered, remembering how he had slaughtered all those people there.

The man was holding a dainty gift box. He walked toward Leah with a smirk. The sound of his footsteps broke the silence in the ballroom. People started discussing the man.

“Who is he? He’s so hot. Why have I never seen him before?”

“That’s Ron Sanders. He’s Mr. Sanders’ illegitimate son, and he only reunited with the family six months ago. I heard he’s a jerk and he often gets on Mrs. Sander’s nerves.”

“Don’t let his good looks fool you! He’s a good-for-nothing who wastes his life drinking and sleeping around.”

Leah was surprised to find out his name. She also realized everyone did not like him. At least they shared something in common. She was unpopular too.

Ron halted in front of Leah. He shoved the gift box into her hands. “It’s for your father.”

“What’s inside?” Leah asked curiously. She had not expected him to bring a gift for Gordon.

“Open it and you’ll see,” replied Ron with a smug smile on his face.
