The Billionaire's Maid Bride novel Chapter 199

At 7 p.m., the sky over Northfield wasn't completely dark yet. The horizon where it met the ocean was a deep shade of blue, like a beautiful, mysterious sapphire.

On the beach.

A 20-meter-long table was full of all kinds of goodies, with a BBQ and buffet area on one side.

Lucian's invited friends were arriving and taking their seats; among them were hotshots from the business world and celebs from the entertainment industry.

At this moment, everyone was dressed to the nines, chit-chatting, and goofing around.

Penelope picked up a glass of champagne in front of her and took a sip. Lucian glanced at her and reminded her, "Don't drink too much."

Vivian teased, "Penelope, you are so lucky; Lucian treats you like a queen."

Susan chimed in, "Yes, Penelope, we're all green with envy that you landed such a great fiancée."

Under the sea breeze, Penelope's cheeks turned a slight pink. She shyly glanced at Lucian, who gave her hand a gentle pat.

At this point, Jason looked at his watch. It was already half past seven. He was about to leave when Kamilla stopped him and asked, "Where are you off to?"

"I'm going to check on Allison; she's taking forever."

"Just give her a call; I bet you're just using this as an excuse to go see her."

Jason passed Kamilla a piece of cake and asked, "Here, have this." He didn't feel awkward being called out; everyone in the Lindbergh family knew he had a thing for Allison.

Kamilla took a bite of the cake and chatted with friends nearby. She started to feel a bit bored. Aidan, who had mobility issues, didn't make it to the party. He wasn't really into these shindigs.

But Aidan promised to go on a trip with her, and that made Kamilla pretty excited.

She took out her phone, adjusted the filter, and snapped some selfies to send to Aidan. But after waiting for a while, there was no reply, and Kamilla felt a bit down.
