I Married An Immortal (The Alchemists)

Chapter 95 - Party in Rivendell (2)

All the information was difficult for her to accept. A few months ago, she was just a poor fresh graduate who struggled to survive in Singapore. Now she was married to an Alchemist leader who could live forever and had many enemies. He also had a contract killer as one of his personal guards.

"You don't need to worry. The party is very tightly guarded. Aldebar has more guards than Caspar because he is the heir to the immortality potion and he must not let it fall into the wrong hands." Flora pulled Finland's hand out of the room, "Let's go down, the event will start soon..."

Finland followed her with a raging mind. They joined Caspar and Louis in the library, then walked hand in hand to the large ballroom where the party was held.

"You are so beautiful tonight..." whispered Caspar to Finland. He wore a tuxedo that made him look more handsome than usual, and for a moment Finland was blown away.

"You look handsome," Finland said with a smile.

"Thank you," Caspar answered. "All invited guests have arrived. I can't wait to introduce you to everyone."

Suddenly Finland thought about Katia. The girl was also a member of the Alchemists clan because 50 years ago she received the immortality potion from Caspar, even though they did not get married. She wondered if Katia was also invited to Aldebar's party.

When they entered the hall and went inside, before she could ask Caspar, she got her answer.

At the other end of the hall, standing intently with Alexei and Sophia, was Katia. She looked very beautiful in a sparkling blue dress. The three of them were chatting and laughing happily. The smiles on their faces made them look like beautiful elves from Rivendell.

Finland now really felt like she just entered the Lord of the Rings movie set when the elves in Rivendell were having a party. There were hundreds of people in the hall and they all looked young, handsome, and very elegant. Some of them wore modern tuxedos and the latest expensive dresses, some wore unique futuristic clothes, and some wore vintage clothes, like Aldebar. But whatever they wore, they all looked very beautiful and charming. Inwardly Finland thought that Jean would look very fitting to walk among these people.

Thinking of Jean, she sent an SMS to him.

[I'm at Caspar's family party. What are you doing?]

There was no answer from Jean. That's weird, Finland thought. Usually Jean only gave slow responses when he was working. But it was impossible for him to work on a New Year's Eve like this, right?

"Who are you contacting?" Caspar asked.

"Jean. I want to know where he is celebrating the new year. I forgot to ask."

"Oh..." Caspar didn't ask again. He still had to restrain himself from protesting too much about his wife's close relationship with Jean. He kept telling himself that he was the one who came later after the friendship between Finland and Jean had long been established.

Finland decided to look for Jean on Google to find out his schedule. If Jean was working on an event on New Year's Eve, she would be able to find out.

Hmm... no schedule found.

Finland saw Jean's Instagram account on the first page of Google and opened it. Jean often posted his activities there. Maybe tonight too.

Ba-dump!

For some reason, Finland's heart beat fast when she opened Jean's Instagram account. The last photo he posted was a photo of a snow-covered forest behind this castle which was sent by Finland this afternoon.

The caption in the photo was "Her first snow".

Jean posted a photo from Finland on his Instagram, even though Finland was not with him. Like other random photos Finland occasionally posted on his account, this photo received a lot of responses from Jean's followers who suspected that his account was being used again by his alter ego.

Hmm... Recently, she felt that Jean was expressing his love for Finland more clearly.

Or was it because only now she was aware of it?

This made Finland sad. She now realized that Jean was keeping feelings for her in his heart. Actually, maybe in the past, Jean had expressed his feelings in his own way, only Finland was too insensitive...

Now, after she was with Caspar and married him, Finland just realized all the signs...

She sighed deeply. She quickly put down her phone, so Caspar could not see Jean's Instagram account and became jealous.

Caspar had promised not to disturb Jean if Finland didn't give him a reason to be jealous. Therefore, she must be careful and maintain her attitude. Later, when she met Jean, she would try talking to him...

Jean must meet a girl who could accept his love. Finland was now the wife of another man.

She gulped down the wine in her glass and asked for a new glass.
