For the next two days, Theodore kept avoiding Elspeth. Although she was confused about his behavior, she could do nothing.

It was soon the day of his birthday party. As the Winthrops are famous in Damoria, many members of high society were there. In the hall, the four sons of the Winthrops were dressed in elegant suits, which attracted the gazes of many young girls.

“The Winthrops have such great genes. Every son they give birth to is so handsome,” said one woman.

“We should be admiring Elspeth Lynwood instead. As a future family wife, she can have any of the four sons,” commented another lady.

“She’s already dating the most capable of the sons, Callum. The others are still single. Maybe we’ll stand a chance?”

“I choose Blake. The flash of his canines when he smiles is mesmerizing!”

Hearing the ladies’ gossip, Elspeth turned to Callum and let out a tsk. “The most capable of the sons… They sure are bold to say that.”

He calmly glanced at her with a relaxed look in his eyes. “Well? Are they wrong?”

“How have I never realized what a narcissist you are?” Still, Elspeth could not argue too much with him. After all, he had the right to be proud of himself.

Suddenly, there was a commotion near the doors. Everyone turned to look in that direction to find an elegantly dressed woman in exquisite makeup walking into the hall. The people around her were all happily applauding and cheering.

Emma was smiling brightly as she cheerfully greeted those around her. Finally, she walked over to Theodore and handed him the gift she was holding. “Happy birthday, Mr. Winthrop! May you lead a long and happy life,” she exclaimed.

Her gift was a luxurious watch covered in rare gems. It was one of a kind and extremely hard to find.

Then, he grinned brightly when he saw it. “You’re too kind. Thank you, Emma.”
