Series 5
Wren vowed to herself that once overseas, she would wipe all memories of Alexander from her mind! Three years had gone by, and the atmosphere at the Thomas family estate in Owathe was filled with anticipation.
In the grand banquet hall, laughter and conversation blended with the rich aroma of perfumes.
The Thomas family, one of Owathe’s four most influential clans, wielded great influence.
That evening, they hosted a grand celebration for the return of their family head’s goddaughter, who had just come back from abroad.
The city’s high society had turned out in full force to mark the occasion.
“Alexander, isn’t it true that Wren came back today as well?” Theo asked from a corner of the room.
Upon hearing the question, Alexander paused, his fingers tightening around his wine glass. After a brief moment, he gave a confirming nod, savoring a sip of wine.
Clad in a perfectly tailored dark blue suit, Alexander radiated an air of refined sophistication.
“It’s about time!” Theo said, turning to look at Scarlet, who stood beside Alexander. “That woman Alexander married should have been out of his life long ago. Congratulations, Scarlet. It won’t be long before you’re Mrs. Clark.”
