The ballroom was alive with chatter and the rustle of silk. A soft blush adorned
Emily’s cheeks as she nodded subtly in acknowledgment.
Charlie descended the staircase, Kya in his arms. Kya waved back at
Magdalen, “I’ll be right back!”
Magdalen’s smile was radiant. “Take your time, I’ll be here!”
After Kya left, the makeup artist approached with a grin. “Magdalen, it’s time to
slip into the wedding gown!”
At that moment, Magdalen’s phone buzzed. She glanced at the message and
told the makeup artist, “Hold on a sec!”
Enter title…
It was a text from Morrison. [Grandpa Jarvis and Grandpa Quintin have arrived.
They’re in the VIP lounge at the back, hanging out with dad and the others. No
worries.]
Magdalen quickly replied to Morrison and turned to Estelle, “Grandpa’s here,
chilling in the back.”
Estelle’s eyes twinkled with joy, “I’ll go say hi to him!”
Sophia chimed in eagerly, “I’ll come too! I haven’t seen Grandpa Jarvis in ages!”
Emily suggested, “You guys go ahead. I’ll keep Magdalen company.”
Estelle nodded, “We’ll be back in a flash!”
“Send my love, and I’ll come to pay my respects with tea later!” Magdalen said
cheerfully.
“Mhm.”
As Estelle and Sophia made their way to the VIP area to greet Grandpa Jarvis,
they noticed the first floor was even more crowded than before, with elegantly
dressed guests mingling and conversing in small groups.
The Macclains had received an invitation from the Langstons, and Elizabeth,
surrounded by her daughters-in-law, had brought along only Sabina.
Carmella’s reputation had taken a nosedive, and Elizabeth had disowned her
granddaughter.
Sallie Macclain, always busy and with a rebellious streak, wasn’t close to the old
family estate.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThus, Sabina had become the Macclain’s new showpiece.
Estelle passed by the Macclains without a greeting. Elizabeth’s face soured, and
she cast a disapproving glance at Simone, “I don’t know what kind of parenting
that was.”
Simone retorted with a hint of resentment, “She was never raised by me, how is
it my fault?”
Leonie scoffed, “Estelle might be pitiable, orphaned so young, but she came
back to the Macclains with time to spare. I never saw you show any real
concern or discipline!”
Simone’s face darkened, “If you’re so keen on cozying up to Estelle, go do it in
front of her. No need to lecture me.”
Unfazed, Leonie shot back, “I’m not as calculating as you think. I genuinely feel
for Estelle!”
Their argument was cut short by Natalia, “Enough, both of you. Let’s not forget
the occasion.”
She had been observing Estelle, “Did Estelle head to the VIP lounge? She
knows people there?”
Simone replied coolly, “I just saw the Lamont family being escorted to the VIP
area.”
The insinuation was clear: Estelle was likely trying to ingratiate herself with the
Lamonts.
Leonie sneered, “Grandpa Quintin is also in the VIP area, and Estelle is his
prized protégée. It’s only natural for her to pay him a visit. Some people really
can’t see the good in anything!”
Simone was left fuming by Leonie’s retort.
Elizabeth ignored their squabble and asked Natalia, “The gentleman who went
with Grandpa Quintin, was that Grandpa Jarvis of C City?”
Natalia nodded, “Seems like it.”
Elizabeth mused, “Even Grandpa Jarvis made it here. The Langstons certainly
have clout!”
Natalia speculated, “Perhaps there’s a special connection. I’ve never heard of
Grandpa Jarvis leaving C City for any of B City’s big shots.”
