    She didn’t understand why the person just now hadn’t epted the cake she offered.


    “Is it good?” Connor asked, tilting his head to look at her as he held a ss of wine.


    Cam looked up, their eyes meeting, and she instinctively shook her head, then nodded.


    Connor calmly said, “If you like it, eat more. There’s plenty.”


    Cam nodded.


    “What are you whispering about?” Logan came over with another slice of cake and held it up to


    Connor. “It is my birthday, so at lesst


    have a bite.”


    “I don’t eat cake.” Yet as Connor spoke, he took the cake and handed it to Cam beside him. “You


    eat it for me.”


    Logan frowned and clicked his tongue.


    “Thank you” Cam whispered her thanks and took the cake. She sat down and started eating


    quietly.


    Logan moved past Connor and sat next to Cam, lifting his wine ss. “Cam, thank you for


    coming to my birthday party.”


    “Happy Birthday,” Cam stood up, picked up a fresh ss of red wine from in front of her, and


    clinked sses with Logan. As she was about to drink, Connor grabbed her arm and took the wine


    ss from her hand. “She can’t drink alcohol.” Then, he downed the wine he had just taken from


    Cam.


    Logan looked surprised. “You’re too protective. It’s just red wine.”


    Cam picked up a ss of juice and stood next to Connor, smiling, “Happy Birthday, Mr. Logan. I’ll


    toast you with juice instead of


    wine.”


    Logan nced at Connor out of theer of his eye. Seeing Connor’s indifferent expression,


    Logan responded, “Thank you.”

    They both finished their drinks.


    Someone came over with a ss, joking, “This one’s to Ms. Cam’s golden touch, is Connor going


    to block this one too?”


    He had been the biggest winner at the card table until Cam showed up and he started losing quite


    a bit.


    The person gauged Connor’s expression.


    “Bring a ss of wine here.” Connor motioned with his hand, and a servant immediately handed


    him a ss of red wine.


    Connor smiled as he drank it


    Seeing an opportunity to tease him, several guests came over t


    to toast Cam.


    The party got boisterous, and Connor ended up drinking quite a bit.


    Cam stood by his side with an apologetic look, whispering, “Mr. Connor, you’ve had quite a lot to


    drink, shall I take over?”


    Connor tumed his head, whispering close to her ear, “You know your own limits when ites to


    drinking”


    His warm breath, tinged with the scent of alcohol, brushed against her cheek. Cam stiffened


    Tara, who was good at reading the room, picked up the microphone, “Let’s not just drink, everyone.


    Let’s sing a song. Il embarrass myself first”


    Her voice was enchanting, and everyone was momentarily mesmerized by her singing, pausing


    their toasts.


    After the song ended, Tara handed the microphone to Cam with a smile. “Ms. Cam, how about


    a song from you?”


    Cam reluctantly took the microphone. “I really can’t.”


    Just sing anything, the crowd encouraged.


    The intro to the song began ying. “Is this one okay?” Tara asked.


    Under the bright lights and expectant gazes of the crowd, Cam bravely started to sing.


    The crowd gasped. Her singing was unexpectedly off key, out of tune, and even a bit discordant.


    People at the party started whispering among themselves. Some tried to hide their surprise, others


    couldn’t help butugh out loud.


    Cam continued, despite her embarrassment.


    Suddenly a deep,zy male voice joined her from another microphone.
