Chapter 349 Starlit Solitude

As they spoke, the two entered the private room.

The room was set up with a large round table big enough to seat nearly fifty people.

Micah found a secluded corner and sat down by himself, with Jett stubbornly following him.

“Alright, don’t be so glum. Tonight, all of us are here to keep you company.”

Micah let out a cold laugh, his chiseled jaw lifting slightly, his expression as aloof as a king surveying his domain.

“Aside from me, everyone else brought their significant other. Are you sure you’re here to keep me company?”

Jett glanced at the lively, lovey–dovey crowd and scratched his nose. “Well… it’s the holiday season! In our line of work, it’s all about the details. Gotta balance buddies and partners, of course, buddies definitely come first!”

“Jett!”

No sooner had he finished speaking than Jett’s wife called his name. Jett immediately scurried over to attend to her.

“Yes, my dear? What can I do for you?”

“I feel like having fish. Go to the kitchen and pick one with no bones.”

“Right away!”

Micah, who had just been declared ‘first priority‘ was speechless.

With Jett gone, the incessant chatter from him stopped, making the sweet, intimate sounds from the others even more unavoidable.

Work at the Research Center was usually busy. It was rare to get time off for Valentine’s Day, so Jett had directly invited all the colleagues and their families for a meal. The gathering was bustling with noise and excitement.

Micah hadn’t really wanted to come.

With too many people around, it was annoying.

But Oriana had said she had something on tonight and couldn’t make it back. Worried he wouldn’t eat properly, and knowing Jett had organized this, she insisted he go.

It was annoying enough not being able to spend Valentine’s Day with Oriana.

Now it was even more annoying.

Before long, Jett returned, and the wait staff began serving the dishes.

Colleagues raised their glasses, chatting and laughing, the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Naturally, there was plenty of affectionate teasing. One couple, who had just registered their marriage a few days ago, was being urged to drink a cross–cup arm–in–arm wedding toast.

Micah’s face remained expressionless. He abruptly stood up.

Everyone stopped abruptly. “M–Micah? Did we disturb you?”

“Oriana isn’t here tonight. Is Micah upset?”

Words squeezed out from between Micah’s teeth. “Keep going. I’m going out for some air.”

“Micah, I’ll keep you-”

“No need. Stay with your wife.”

“Alright then.”

Micah left the private room and walked out to the viewing balcony.

He let out a heavy, pent–up sigh and took out his phone. It was quiet, without a single new

message.

“Is she that busy?” Micah murmured, unable to hide the loneliness in his eyes.

Boom!

A loud roar, followed by countless fireworks bursting into bloom one after another in the night sky above.

Micah looked up at the colorful fireworks. The large display screens on several surrounding high–rises were all broadcasting the live, romantic proposal scene of Luna and Grant.

Watching the two of them clinging together, all lovey–dovey, Micah felt even more annoyed

now.
