Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband ( Cora Lane ) - Season 1 Episode 76

But Byron was still drinking and didn’t make a sound, but he took a rare look at Jane.
In the dim light, his deep and mysterious eyes seemed even more captivating,
with a touch of debauchery on his handsome face due to the influence of alcohol.
Even the mole in the corner of his eye appeared more alluring.
Jane was deeply captivated by him with one glance but soon followed by her
anxiety and concern over his lack of response.
The Yoris family was organizing such a grand birthday party for her this time as
they wanted to expedite finalizing her marriage plans with Byron.
However, if Byron couldn’t even attend her party, she didn’t know how to face her
parents, grandparents, and all her uncles and aunts when she returned.
Just as Jane’s mind was spinning with anxiety, Harry spoke up, “Jane, isn’t this
needless concern? With your relationship with Byron, even if you don’t invite him
to your birthday party, he will definitely show up.”
Actually, Byron would come over today and join them for the party, which was
arranged by Harry to help Jane.
Enter title…
At this juncture, he naturally couldn’t just stand by and watch Jane feel
embarrassed.
“Is that so?” Jane smiled and looked at Byron again.
Although Byron did not respond to either of them, he also did not refute their
words.
With that, Jane’s anxious heart finally settled down, and after chatting and
laughing with Harry for a while, she suddenly shifted her gaze to Carter, who was
quietly drinking in the corner.
“Carter, when the time comes, you can invite Dr. Lane to the party as well.”
As soon as the words fell, Carter’s hand holding the drink froze imperceptibly.
Not only Carter, but even the smile on Harry’s face also inevitably frozen.
It was because he wasn’t sure whether Jane intended to throw a birthday party
for herself or meet with her love rival!
But Jane seemed oblivious to their unusual expressions and continued to smile,
saying, “I remember she’s on the weekend off. Let’s invite her to come and have
fun with everyone, to relax a bit!”
After Jane decided to hold the birthday party, she specifically checked Cora’s
schedule.
In fact, Jane had already noticed the change in attitude from both Byron and
Carter towards Cora since their encounter at the elevator when Harry was
discharged from the hospital.
But she wasn’t sure if Carter had broken up with Cora, so she wanted to take this
opportunity to test Cora whether she could gain attention in front of Byron or not.
However, her seemingly clever test appeared rather foolish in the eyes of these
men.
Carter couldn’t easily answer questions about Cora, so he didn’t respond to Jane
immediately. Instead, he pushed up his glasses and looked at Byron for
instruction.
Byron was smoking a cigarette, his other hand turning the lighter.
Upon seeing the inquiring eyes from Carter, his hand that was turning lighter
paused, and he not only nodded but also spoke up, “Sure.”
Harry was stunned when he witnessed it all.
Byron neglected everything about Jane but readily answered anything about
Cora.
This was clearly a double-standard situation!
At that moment, Harry felt so sorry for Jane, fearing that Byron’s attitude would
hurt her.
But as he turned around, he saw that Jane, after only a brief hesitation, had
already handed the birthday party invitation card and schedule to Carter.
“Carter, please take these to Dr. Lane. Oh, and remind her to bring sunscreen
and a swimsuit. If the weather permits, we can go swimming.”
Jane hadn’t expected Byron actually to respond to the matter about Cora. She
didn’t receive such treatment herself.
But then she thought that since Carter was also from one of the four prominent
families in New York, he gave up competing for the Pope family’s inheritance and
chose to work with Byron, so naturally, Byron appreciated him.
And so, she believed that Carter had asked Byron for permission regarding
Cora’s participation in the birthday party, and Byron responded because he didn’t
want to embarrass Carter.
Of course, what surprised Jane even more was that Carter hadn’t broken up with
Cora yet.
But in her opinion, it was just a matter of time. The incident where Cora
accompanied another man for drinks last time definitely caused an unpleasant
situation between them.
Once there was a crack in their relationship, it was like a domino effect that one
pushed, and it would easily collapse.
Even if their relationship hadn’t ruptured yet, Jane would definitely find a way to
make their relationship collapse during the overnight party on the cruise.
However, Jane believed that her plan was flawless, unaware that the party
schedule she had given to Carter was actually handed over to Cora by Byron
himself.
