Chapter 103 – A Simple Family Gathering

• The party is already in full swing when we get there, which makes sense. Even though Kent is technically the host, there’s no way he’s not going to make an entrance. I walk in on Daniel’s arm and find my breath almost immediately stolen at the beautiful scene before me – though I’m not sure why I’m so surprised. When Kent does something, he does it right.
• “Wow,” I breathe, pulling a little closer to Daniel as I look around. “Incredible…”
• Daniel shrugs, less impressed than me. But then again, he’s been coming to parties like this since he was a kid. I nudge him with my arm, making him look at me, and then I whisper “so jaded,” teasing him as I wrinkle my nose. Daniel just laughs at me and shrugs, looking around and trying harder to appreciate it.
