“Why not join us?” Jaxen said with a friendly smile as he looked at Katelyn.

However, Katelyn wasn’t a fan of lively gatherings like this. She could already picture the yacht party in her mind.

Just as she was about to decline, Vincent glanced over at her.

“Join us. Think of it as a chance to unwind,” he said.

After a brief pause, Katelyn nodded and replied, “Okay.”

The yacht party was scheduled for seven in the evening. To impress Cormac, Jaxen spared no expense, bringing his private luxury yacht.

The lifestyle of the wealthy elite was beyond what most could imagine. The yacht before them was nothing short of incredible. It resembled a palace on the water.

It featured a gym, a game room, a card room, and a range of entertainment options, in addition to gourmet dining and live shows. Even in the evening, the yacht gleamed brightly.

This was Katelyn’s first yacht party, and she couldn’t help but look around with curiosity. The venue was beautifully decorated, with jewels adorning the walls.

Vincent stood beside her and said, “Jaxen has invited nearly everyone in our circle. You might run into people like Lise and Neil, so be cautious.”

The issue with the oil field was still unresolved. Given Lise’s and Neil’s personalities, they wouldn’t let it go easily.

Katelyn nodded, reassuring him. “Don’t worry. I can handle myself.”

Vincent still seemed concerned. “Let’s head to the deck first. We might end up spending the night on the ship, so be prepared for that.”

“Alright.”

Katelyn and Vincent made their way to the deck. On a yacht like this, the deck felt as spacious as an apartment.

Just as Jaxen had mentioned, there were plenty of handsome men and beautiful women around. A towering champagne display stood in the center, surrounded by fireworks and party poppers.

Jaxen, holding a glass of champagne, chatted with the crowd. As a playboy, he knew how to work a room.

Katelyn spotted a few familiar faces in the crowd. They were all from the same social circle; even if she didn’t know their names, she recognized them.

Their presence caught everyone’s attention.

“Is that Katelyn? She and Vincent seem pretty close, considering he brought her to this event.”

“Everyone else is dressed up for the party, but why is she in casual clothes?”

Katelyn instinctively looked down at her outfit. She wore a plain, solid-colored sleeveless top and loose, wide-leg pants. Her outfit stood out sharply against the sea of bikinis on the deck.

Katelyn paid no mind to the whispers around her. She wore what she liked; it was her choice.

Just then, Jaxen emerged from the crowd, walking over to Vincent and giving him a knowing look. He leaned in and said, “Look to your right at six o’clock. That heavyset guy is Cormac. He’s great at pretending to be weak and then biting you afterwards, so getting anything from him won’t be easy.” Discover more novels at find·novel·net

Vincent glanced at him quietly.

Cormac was surrounded by a group of women, wearing that all-too-familiar smile.

At the same time, Katelyn suddenly felt a piercing gaze on her.
