It seemed inevitable that Alison would enlist the services of a lawyer to commence the divorce proceedings, a move that would undoubtedly work in her favor.
Luna couldn't envision any other hidden intricacies.
Meanwhile, Mia stepped aside to oversee the entire banquet setup, ensuring every detail was flawless. Today's birthday theme was her brainchild, tailored especially for children.
Perhaps witnessing today's event setup at Aide Castle Hotel would inspire attendees to plan their children's birthday celebrations here, choosing a similarly themed hall.
Shortly thereafter, Luna was spotted strolling alongside Raymond, with Asher in tow, a self-satisfied expression gracing her features.
Mia believed that today marked the apex of Luna's life, following all the planning and struggles to establish herself.
However, for some, the higher they ascend, the more deadly the potential fall.
The ache of yearning for the unattainable was one matter, but the torment of losing something once possessed was a hundred times worse.
At that moment, Raymond approached the microphone and conveyed his gratitude to everyone present.
Glancing at Asher by his side, he continued, "Throughout all these years, our family has been without children. Luna's son appears to be a perfect addition.
"From this day forward, he will bear the Shelbert last name and be embraced as a member of our family, my grandson."
As Raymond concluded his speech, the room erupted into applause. Luna finally displayed a relieved expression—her goal had been achieved at last.
She could almost envision Asher growing up and inheriting all of Raymond's wealth. By then, she would also be affluent and no longer subjected to disdain.
"Wait a minute."
At that instant, Jasmine's voice shattered the mood, capturing everyone's focus as she entered the banquet hall.
To make matters worse, this information had been weaponized by his rivals to undermine him.
Despite Raymond's swift response, the incident had left a lasting impression, and he felt profoundly let down by Jasmine.
Now, with Jasmine unexpectedly appearing in a black dress, no one could decipher her intentions.
Addressing Jasmine, Raymond's voice dropped as he cautioned, "What more are you after? I advise you to think twice before making any hasty decisions."
A smile played on Jasmine's lips as she responded, "Dad, what's with the tension? I'm here today to celebrate my little brother's birthday."
Jasmine's reference to Asher as her brother sent Luna's thoughts spinning, though she couldn't quite grasp the significance.
Nevertheless, Luna couldn't ignore the warning signs flashing in her mind.

The readers' comments on the novel: Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen
Enjoyed reading this but I agree that the last chapter seemed rushed. Maybe if the author had done a few more chapters to let us know if they remarried or not - could there be a second book in the running. Anyway we'll done....
Who's Claude in chapters 276/277? Have I missed a chapter or something?...
I've never encountered a book with over 1,000 chapters. Does the author or platform not use an editor? The writing and grammatical errors are quite frustrating....
Why does it read status ongoing? If it’s ongoing chapter 1187 isn’t the end, I’m confused...
Chapter 1187 is the end? Too soon of a ending if its the ending they just ruined the sorty for me...
