Chapter 1445: Nicole’s Unusual Mood

Ryan Seys chuckled lightly, his laughter exuding a noble elegance: "But everyone says I inherited from my uncle, saying a nephew resembles his uncle. I’m exactly like him, so I don’t appreciate the blame, uncle, will you take it?"

Jorge Saxton, who always prided himself on his conversational skills, almost lost his composure, looking at Ryan Seys’ face resembling Arlo Seys, he couldn’t help but feel he could use a punch.

In the corner of her eye, Lydia Brooke noticed Jorge Saxton’s expression, unable to suppress a slight smile and increasingly liked Ryan Seys from the bottom of her heart.

The unexpected thing at Ariel Morris’ birthday party was that both Jose Floyd and Langdon Seal were present. Facing the two brothers from the Seal Family, Arlo Seys felt somewhat uncomfortable.

Langdon Seal once pursued Ariel, and even now, he remains single, waiting for Ariel, like a latent rival, always wanting to compete with him for Ariel. Because of this, Arlo Seys wished he’d never see Langdon Seal, his romantic rival, again in his life.

As for Jose Floyd, Arlo Seys disliked him even more, vividly recalling the previous time they had a fierce altercation, and Jose Floyd had no ties to Nicole or the Seys Family, which was for the best.

Ariel Morris confidently held Arlo Seys with one arm and extended the other to Jose Floyd and Langdon Seal, signaling welcome.

Langdon Seal was about to extend his hand to greet Ariel Morris when Arlo Seys stepped in and grasped Langdon Seal’s hand, maintaining an elegant and noble demeanor, "Thank you for coming to my wife’s birthday party."

This possessed an overwhelming sense of possessiveness and marked territory assertively.

Langdon Seal held Arlo Seys’ hand in return, his expression calm and composed.

With their hands clasped, both exerting force in a silent duel, both displayed composure and elegance, wearing an amiable expression.

Ariel Morris saw nothing amiss and extended her hand to Jose Floyd, "Thank you for coming."

Jose Floyd lightly returned the handshake with Ariel Morris, his gaze hinting at some significance as he glanced at a nearby figure.

While Arlo Seys was holding onto Langdon Seal, both competing subtly, he could only cast a faint glance at the interaction between Jose Floyd’s hand and Ariel Morris’.

It was merely a light grip, and their hands quickly parted. Arlo Seys shot a cold glance at the indifferent Jose Floyd, scoffing internally: Smart of him, quick to withdraw his claws!

After a brief chat, Jose Floyd weaved through the party holding a high-stemmed glass, his eyes searching for the figure he wished to see.

After searching for a long time at the party without seeing that figure, Jose Floyd’s gaze shifted, somewhat desolate.

"Miss Seys isn’t feeling well, is there any lemon water?" Two servants conversed in hushed tones.

"What’s wrong with Miss Seys?"

"I don’t know, she looks a bit pale, she asked me for lemon water, is there any?"

"Yes, I’ll deliver it to Miss Seys right away, where is she?"

"In the house."

"Alright."

A servant prepared a glass of lemon water, sweet and sour, and proceeded towards the house.

Jose Floyd’s brow furrowed slightly, stepping forward, blocking the servant, "Let me, I’ll take it to Nicole."

"Who are you?" The servant looked at Jose Floyd.

Jose Floyd glanced at the servant, "Nicole’s friend."

Those attending this party were either Seys Family relatives or close friends of the Seys Family, so the servant dared not neglect him, nor did they suspect, handing the water to Jose Floyd, "Thank you, sir."

Jose Floyd took the lemon water and headed towards the house.

The Seys Family mansion was expansive, and Jose Floyd found Nicole in a guest rest area on the first floor, her complexion somewhat pale, beside her lay a piece of cake with a couple of bites taken out.
