Chapter 106 Flashback (One)

• The party had been held in Sebastian's house, in honor of his uncle, whose birthday it was. Prior to this time, Sebastian had become really worried about his uncle's sudden hatred for his fiancée, Jessica, whom the man had loved to bits and treated as he would a daughter, before. He would have a talk with his uncle about it, he decided. Many wealthy people, most of them billionaires like Sebastian and his uncle, had been invited, and the party was going really well. Sebastian walked around, playing the perfect host and greeting people, most of whom were investors in his companies. Sebastian had just finished having a small discussion with one man and his heavily perfumed wife,9 when he realized that he had not seen Jessica for a while now, and his uncle too was nowhere in sight.
• The last time he had sighted Jessica was when she was surrounded by a group of wannabe models like herself who had come to the party, no doubt hoping to snag a spot with the famous model manager who had been invited too. The man had made and managed top models in the modeling industry and was well respected. Sebastian had met with the man some days before the party and discussed Jessica with him, and the man had agreed to take her under his wings.
• He knew that Jessica would be more than delighted with this news and planned to tell her about it tonight, but right now, he needed to find his uncle, and probably give him a speech about how rude it was to disappear from your own party. He would look for Jessica later and ask her not to disappear from the party again, after all, it had all been her idea for them to host this party for his uncle. She knew how much he hated having to host anything, but he had just gone along with it, because he saw how desperate she was to get back in his uncle's good graces. Which was the reason he did not get why she was elsewhere now, instead of playing the perfect host.
