Chapter: 1606
As the clock struck eight in the evening, the ambient lights were swiftly extinguished, plunging the hall into darkness as focused spotlights found their marks on stage, converging it into a prominent glow.
“Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Mr. Olson's sixty-year-old birthday party..."
With that, the birthday celebration commenced.
Bella's father, Mr. Olson, delivered a brief speech to the guests from the stage, thanking them for coming.
Then, a waiter rolled out a grand cake with many tiers and exquisite decorations.
Guided by Bella as she held his arm for support, Mr. Olson descended from the stage, and the crowd spontaneously formed a circle to congratulate him and witness the ceremonial cake-cutting.
Many people crowded around them, bustling to see and cheering.
The scene was quite lively.
However, Sabrina could not see much amidst the celebratory atmosphere and gathering people.
She glanced away casually and spotted a familiar figure.
Lance? Before she could take a closer look, that person had vanished from sight, slipping into the celebration.
Was she mistaking someone else for Lance? Or did Lance come to Philade?
Considering Lance was a friend of Blayze, he was likely in Philade.
His presence here wouldn't be unexpected. But she wasn't sure if it was him who she saw.
Sabrina withdrew her gaze, brushing it off.
After cutting the cake, the party proceeded with gift-unwrapping as Mr. Olson wanted to open some gifts from his old friends.
After several gifts were unwrapped and compliments echoed through the air, some individuals took the stage for performances.
Meanwhile, Mr. Olson went around greeting guests. He wanted Bella to join him in doing so, but Bella slipped away.
Bella opted to take Sabrina and her friends to enjoy themselves in the game hall on the third floor.
Sabrina then realized in awe that the entire third floor was bursting with equipment for entertainment, featuring all kinds of facilities for enjoyment.
