Soft, melodic music filled the air as the host walked onto the stage with a bright smile. “Welcome, everyone, to the celebration banquet hosted by Eclipse Group. To kick things off, let’s give a warm round of applause as we invite Mr. Holbrook from Eclipse Group to deliver the opening remarks!”

Amid thunderous applause, Caden stepped onto the stage with an air of calm elegance.

The spotlight cast a golden glow over him, accentuating his regal aura. He stood tall, like a king surveying his kingdom, commanding attention effortlessly.

After clearing his throat, his crisp, magnetic voice rang out. “Thank you all for joining us tonight. Today marks the official launch of Eclipse Group’s Ice and Fire collection, a milestone that signifies our entry into the jewelry industry. This success wouldn’t have been possible without one person in particular.”

He paused, his deep gaze landing directly on me.

Then, in that same captivating voice, he continued, “She’s none other than my fiancée–Rosaline.”

The room erupted in applause, and countless envious eyes turned toward me.

However, I felt thoroughly embarrassed.

While a small part of me was touched, I didn’t want to encourage him further. I lowered my head slightly, feigning shyness, but his velvety voice rang out again.
