So, I thought we could throw her a party to lift her spirits. We can invite Grandma and Grandpa too and have a joyful family gathering." Raymond nodded. "You're right. Let me check if we can still make the arrangements." Luna saw her chance and piped up, "Dad, why don't you help Jasmine out and ask Aide Castle Hotel? They'd probably accommodate us for another event."

There's an order to these things, right?" She believed it was essential for Asher to make his first public appearance with Raymond at Aide Castle Hotel.
This would show Raymond's regard for Asher and ensure that people took them seriously. ie
Jasmine scoffed. "If we're really talking about order, then you shouldn't be here at all." "Oh, please. I'm older than you. If we're talking about order, it's my mom and I first, then you and yours." "A mistress like you, who's been kept in the shadows and can't be acknowledged publicly, talking about order? This sounds just like a former maid trying to play the role of the lady of the house!" Jasmine quipped.
Luna's expression changed. "Let me make it clear that this party is for my son. Your mother can forget about having it for herself. You know how much Dad has been wishing for a son to carry on the family name.

celebration until next year. Or are you worried she won't be around anymore?" C Jasmine was livid upon hearing that.
"Luna, I dare you to say that again." "What? Did I say something wrong?" Just as Jasmine was about to lunge at Luna, Mia stepped in and grabbed her arm. "What's going on? This drink is surprisingly good. Try it." Mia handed Jasmine a cocktail, and she subtly reminded Jasmine not to act impulsively.

After Luna left, Jasmine wanted to smash her glass in frustration. "Mia, did you hear what that bitch just said? I wanted to throw a party for my mom, and she's trying to steal it for her son.
"And my dad's being all vague, talking about contacting Aide Castle Hotel.
Doesn't he know about their
reservation system..." She let her words trail off.
