Chapter 315 Celebrating gone wrong
Alexander gritted his teeth.
And now Adrian was the center of attention, stealing the spotlight that Alexander thought should be his. He glanced at Abigail.
"Abigail," Alexander said, his voice a little too loud and a bit too eager. "Have you tried the lasagna yet? It's quite good."
Abigail blinked in surprise, her fork halfway to her mouth. "Uh, no, not yet-" But before she could finish, Alexander had already scooped up a forkful of lasagna and was holding it out toward her like he was feeding a toddler. She awkwardly leaned forward, taking the bite. "It's... good," she said, nodding politely, though she clearly wasn't expecting that.
Claire, noticing the sudden shift in Alexander's behavior, hid a smirk behind her wine glass. She speared a piece of salmon from her plate and turned to Adrian with a smile. "You should try this," she said, offering him a piece. "It's really good. I know you like salmon." Adrian leaned forward and took the bite, nodding appreciatively. "Wow, this is delicious! You always know my favorites," he said with a grin, clearly enjoying the attention from Claire.
Alexander clenched his jaw. How could Claire know Adrian's favorite food and not his? They'd been married for three years, and yet here she was, feeding Adrian like they were the best of friends.
Determined to shift the focus back to him, Alexander turned to Abigail again, reaching for the dessert tray. "You've got to try the chocolate cake," he said, scooping up a slice and holding it out to her, clearly thinking this was a winning move.
But Abigail raised her hand, stopping him with an apologetic smile. "Oh, no, I can't," she said softly. "I'm allergic to chocolate."
Alexander blinked, his fork hovering in the air. He hadn't expected that. He dropped the fork back onto the plate, mumbling an apology. "Oh... I didn't know."
Claire, watching the whole scene, couldn't help but let out a small, amused snort. She quickly covered her mouth, but it was too late. Alexander's eyes flickered to her, his frustration growing.
Meanwhile, Matthew was watching the whole thing unfold like it was a sitcom. He shook his head in amusement and took a sip of his wine. "Well, this is getting interesting," he muttered under his breath, clearly entertained by Alexander's failed attempts at winning back the spotlight.
Standing up from the table, Matthew stretched his arms and turned to Claire. "I think I'm going to mingle a bit," he said with a wink. "I'll leave you all to... this." He gestured vaguely at the tense atmosphere between Alexander, Adrian, and Claire.
Claire nodded her attention back to Alexander, who was now picking at his lasagna with a frustrated expression.
"Are you okay, Alex?" Claire asked, raising an eyebrow. She was trying to hold back her amusement, but it wasn't working too well.
Alexander scowled, stabbing his fork into his plate. "I'm fine," he muttered, but it was obvious he was anything but fine.
