Without even glancing at it, Colin signed the document coldly and walked off with Sienna.
After they left, Yvonne’s coworkers rushed over to comfort her. Surprisingly, she was calm.

“Yvonne, don’t tell me you forgot my birthday tomorrow! I’ve been looking forward to your gift!”
“There’s no way I’d forget. Your gift is ready, and I’ll bring it tomorrow.”
Besides the gift, she also planned to tell Nancy that she was leaving.

Yvonne had been there so many times that she knew the place well and entered through the back entrance.
Inside the hall, the candles were just being blown out. Surrounded by guests, Nancy stood in the center, beaming with joy.
Her parents stood smiling beside her on one side, while Colin and Sienna were on the other, looking cheerful.
They appeared like a happy family.
Yvonne stayed in the background and overheard some maids whispering.
“I thought Mr. Sullivan and Ms. Jefferson were over for good. I didn’t think they’d ever get back together, but now it looks like they did. He’s so devoted to her.”
“Exactly. Ms. Sullivan’s best friend chased after him for years, but he never showed any in- terest. It’s obvious his heart has always been with Ms. Jefferson.”
“Sir Sullivan and Madam Sullivan have been hoping he’d settle down for a long time. He al- ways said no until now. Bringing Ms. Jefferson home feels like he’s finally made his choice. Maybe a wedding is coming soon.”
