Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan) novel Chapter 3321

"I'm heading out, bye!" Sara said, turning around to find her colleagues.

"Sara!" Adrian suddenly called out to her. "My grandfather's birthday banquet is this Sunday. Do you want to come? Norah will be there too."

"Sure, I'll definitely be there!" Sara laughed brightly.

Adrian smiled warmly. "I'll have someone send the invitation to you tomorrow!"

Sara joked, "Thank you for the honor, Mr. Chambers!"

They exchanged a smile, and Sara reminded him, "Your car is here. You should get going."

Adrian asked, "Do you need a ride?"

Sara replied, "Thanks, but no. I've already called a driver!"

Adrian didn't say anything else. With a slight nod, he walked toward his car.

Sara waved at him, watching the vehicle merge into the traffic.

On Sunday, Norah went with her family to the hotel where the Chambers family was hosting the birthday banquet.

Estelle Macclain was pregnant, and Jonathan was worried the socializing would be too taxing for her, so he stayed behind at Villa del Sol to keep her company.

As soon as Catherine Lamont arrived at the hotel, she was ushered into the VIP lounge for the elders. Janice Harper also ran into some acquaintances and stopped to chat, while Norah obediently stayed by Janice's side.

Once the man of the hour, Grandpa Chambers, arrived at the hotel, Janice took Norah upstairs to offer their birthday wishes.

In the upstairs lounge, Geoffrey and Catherine Lamont were already seated in the places of honor, chatting with Grandpa Chambers.

Grandpa Chambers was dressed in a crimson formal dinner jacket with gold embroidery. With his hair half white, he looked energetic and in high spirits.

As soon as Janice and Norah walked in, the Chambers family stood up, greeting them warmly. "Mrs. Lamont, Norah!"

Norah elegantly offered her birthday wishes to Grandpa Chambers and then greeted the other elders one by one.

Simon Hanson walked in with Hannah and Gonzalez. The Chambers family once again stood up to welcome them.

When Norah looked over, Gonzalez was already looking at her. Their eyes met, and the man's cold, predatory gaze swept over her and Adrian.

Norah instinctively held her breath, subtly averting her eyes.

After another round of lively greetings, more and more guests arrived to offer their birthday wishes. Adrian pulled Norah over to the sofas in the back, pouring her some tea and bringing her pastries.

Norah couldn't shake the feeling that a sharp, intense gaze was lingering on her, making her feel uneasy. She turned to Adrian. "It's your grandfather's birthday, and your cousins are all busy welcoming guests. You should go help out. You don't have to stay here with me!"

Adrian brushed it off. "I'm not the one trying to show off today. I'll let them have the spotlight!"

His cousins were acting incredibly flashy today, desperate to make sure everyone knew how devoted they were to Grandpa Chambers, trying to make their presence known in front of all the guests.

Adrian, on the other hand, chose to keep a low profile.

On another sofa, Janice was chatting with Mrs. Chambers. Mrs. Chambers' gaze swept over Norah and Adrian, and she smiled meaningfully. "Those two are getting along better and better!"
