406 The Christmas Party
The silver Mercedes, carrying Anna and Jesse, drove through the open gates, entering a vast snow-covered yard. There was a mansion, looking like it was built a few centuries ago, standing in the middle of the yard, spanning hundreds of meters.
There were already twenty luxurious-looking cars parked in the yard, and at the front door, the Saward family was greeting their guests.
After Sebastian parked the car at the instructions of the servants, who showed him where to park his car, he looked over to the backseat and said.
"We have arrived, ma'am, young master."
"Thank you." Anna smiled. "Do you want to come with us, Sebastian?"
"I don't think this party is for someone of my status." Sebastian said with a smile, still thankful for the invitation.
"Mm, very well." Anna nodded at Jesse, and they then left the car and walked side-by-side towards the front door.
There were lines of guests already waiting to enter the nice-looking mansion. Once they arrived at the front door, they chatted with Amber and her husband while their daughter, Emily, just smiled and stood silently.
After a short moment of waiting, Anna and Jesse arrived at the front door.
"Oh, Anna." Amber smiled and planted a kiss on both Anna's cheeks. She had a lot of makeup and was dressed in a very bright purple dress.
"The decorations look beautiful." Anna said, and she looked over to the decorations that were stretched across the ceilings, and there were diamond chandeliers hanging from the ceiling.
"Anna, nice to have you here." Nero Saward, the head of the Saward family and Amber's husband, said with a smile and looked at the young man that stood beside her. "And who may this be?"
Amber looked at the young man and raised her eyebrow in confusion. For a moment, she thought she was a new servant of the Rothsmith family, and Anna brought him here to be a purse carrier or something.
However, then she remembered that she was supposed to bring her son with her.
At that moment, her eyes widened in shock. 'That... can't be.'
Emily shyly looked over, and her cheeks turned pink for a moment.
"This is my son." Anna smiled proudly.
"Jesse Rothsmith, nice to meet you." Jesse offered a handshake to Nero.
Nero shook his hand and nodded. "Firm handshake. I've wanted to meet you for quite some time now. It's nice to have you here."
"Merry Christmas to you three." Anna said with a smile, and she entered the mansion through the front door with Jesse.
They saw hundreds of people gathered in the lounge, chatting with others. There were tables of food, a bar, and servants walking down the lounge with trays of food.
Jesse was about to pull out his phone to waste his time with, but then he sensed some stares in his direction, and he saw that Adam was talking with other young men from High Society, and they were throwing scornful gazes in his direction.
'Great.' Jesse rolled his eyes and felt a need for a bathroom.
He stood up and walked up the staircase to the second floor. There were guests leaning against the railings, talking about some investing opportunities and some other rich people's businesses.
Jesse slipped his hands inside his pockets, and looked for any bathoom, but then heard a voice behind him.
"Excuse me, J-Jesse, are you looking for something?"
He turned around and saw a cute, round-headed girl looking at him curiously.
"Uh, Emily, right?" Jesse remembered seeing her in the cafe and at the front door.
"Nn." Emily nodded and asked. "Were you... looking for something?"
"A bathroom." Jesse checked his shoes, which were tailored to fit the suit, and asked. "Has all the guests arrived?"
"Not yet, but I was sent here to talk with the guests." Emily said and smiled. "I can show you the way to the bathroom, if you want."
"Thanks." Jesse nodded and walked after her silently, walking quite slowly and steadily. "Have you talked with others yet?" Emily asked curiously.
"Yeah..." Jesse tried to remember that one guy's name and said, "Adam La Santo, something."
"Ah, him." Emily wryly smiled. "It's La Sainto. A very respected family, but Adam is... something else."
"Yeah, he indeed is." Jesse wryly smiled.
After a short walk, Emily pointed at one of the doors and said, "This is a guest room, but there should be a bathroom for you to use."
"I appreciate it." Jesse opened the door and saw that the room was unfurnished.
There were hundreds of rooms, so it wasn't surprising that not all of them had furnishings.
"I'll wait outside. I want to talk to you more." Emily said with a bashful look.
"Mm, sure." Jesse thought it was good to talk with at least someone from High Society.
At that moment, his ears perked up, and he managed to hear some distinct screaming because of his Starborn physique.
He turned to look back to Emily, and it was clear that she didn't hear anything.
'What was that? Ehh, probably nothing.' He shrugged his shoulders and went to use the bathroom.
