At that moment, Luna was engulfed by a sense of impending crisis.
Struggling to muster a smile, she turned to Raymond and began, "But Dad—"
"Enough talk. Let's focus on celebrating Asher's birthday for now. Jazzy, why don't you cut the cake and serve it to everyone?" Raymond interjected.
Nonetheless, Luna couldn't shake off her unease. "Dad, Asher hardly knows her."
"They'll get to know each other in time. After all, they're family now," Raymond replied, attempting to reassure Luna.
Jasmine's smile widened. "Absolutely, Dad, I've got everything under control. I'll introduce Asher to everyone shortly.
"With so many other children here, it'll be fantastic for Asher to make new friends. It'll help him develop his social skills in the long run."
"That sounds ideal. If you can handle that, I'll be very pleased," Raymond remarked, his tone radiating approval.
Given Raymond's position, assigning him to such tasks might seem beneath him.
On the other hand, Luna's status might not be deemed appropriate for the role. Therefore, entrusting Jasmine with the introductions appeared to be the most suitable choice.
"This is the least I can do. After all, we're family, right? It's my first time caring for a child, so I might make some mistakes, but I'll do my best to guide Asher. I won't let anyone down," Jasmine assured before bringing Asher around to meet the guests. She then took charge of distributing the cake on her own.
Meanwhile, Luna couldn't help but feel a pang of jealousy as she observed from the sidelines. She felt that these tasks should have been hers, but Jasmine's sudden involvement completely overshadowed her.
Unable to hold back, Luna approached Raymond and expressed her concern. "Dad, Asher has been under my care since he was young. With all these unfamiliar faces here today, isn't it a bit overwhelming for Jazzy to be responsible for introducing him?"
Raymond attempted to calm Luna, assuring her, "Don't worry, Asher seems to be adjusting well. I don't see any reason for concern. Your worries might be unfounded."
Despite Raymond's reassurance, Luna's frustration only grew. How could she stand by as Jasmine seemingly replaced her?

The readers' comments on the novel: Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen
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...
It reads 7 chapters per day, yet today only 2...
Patiently waiting for her to realize they belong together...

I am so done with this never ending saga, with too much drama and never resolving any issues, only continuing to add more unresolved issues....
