Vespera was startled. Fawn really did move on quickly.
Earlier, Fawn had been thinking about the past. Now, she wanted to know who Vespera was. It sounded like she thought Vespera cfrom an affluent family.
"Madam, we should remain mysterious for the sake of the masquerade ball. So..." Vespera smiled. "I can't answer your question." Upon hearing Vespera, Fawn couldn't help but scrutinize her. Although the mask covered the area around her eyes and half of her nose, she could still look at the eyes, lips, and lower half of her face.
Vespera's side profile resembled Mirabelle's, but she was far more beautiful. She spoke gently, seemed elegant, and behaved well.
Fawn was dismayed that she couldn't learn about Vespera's true identity. Perhaps Dominic might like someone like Vespera and move on from that secretary of his.
Fawn was determined to learn which family Vespera was from.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOh, right! I forgot." She smiled. "Oh, Mrs. Dawson! I wonder why she decided to change things up into a masquerade ball." too," Vespera added. Secretly, she knew it was because Emily had set up a trap for Fawn. There might be skind of psychedelics hidden in the golden mask that could be absorbed through the skin.
Vespera had no idea why Emily had set a trap for Fawn. Why, of all people at the ball, was Fawn her target? Although Vespera didn't know why, she knew Emily had no intention of stopping her plans. She wondered if she should remind Fawn to leave as soon as possible.
Vespera and Fawn entered the banquet hall, each lost in their own thoughts.
As they entered, the guests near the door subconsciously looked toward them.
The two main characters who got into a fight earlier-One never returned, and the other cback with another guest.
Interesting.
One of the guests who looked over was Felicia. In order to confirm her suspicion, she intentionally remained near the door after Vespera went out. That way, she could secretly get a glimpse of her once she returned.
Now that Felicia had seen clearly, she knew those alluring eyes belonged to Vespera. Although they never got along, they had been in-laws for the past four years.
Felicia still knew Vespera well enough. Yet she never expected her to show up at the ball today.
Wasn't Vespera dating Dominic and planning to marry into the Reid family? Felicia scoffed at how determined Vespera was.
But thanks to Vespera, Felicia was finally free of Tina. While she was upset that Vespera had used her, she wasn't as angry once she realized that Tina was finally gone.
Whatever. In the future, Vespera and Felicia would mind their own business in Halewick.
After clarifying that the woman was Vespera, Felicia gazed at Fawn curiously. She stared at her for a long time, but couldn't figure out who she was.
"Madam, you should go back early tonight." After sthought, Vespera decided to let her know what was going on. After all, she had already helped her with the mask.
"Why?" Fawn asked with a smile.
Vespera invited Fawn to grab sfood with her. "Don't panic after tell you, okay? Remain calm. While I was outside just now, I heard..." Vespera repeated everything she heard earlier.
Although Vespera had already given Fawn a heads-up, Fawn still becanxious after hearing her out.
Fawn had always lived a life of privilege. She did not like attending big gatherings and wasn't interested in balls. Since the Reids were a powerful family, she was used to others fawning over her. At home, even Samuel adored her completely. Fawn lived her life peacefully, sheltered under others.
Upon hearing that someone wanted to set her up tonight, she realized she had never encountered such a thing before.
"My goodness! Why... Why would she do this to me? I've never offended her before."
Fawn had gotten to know Emily at a charity event, and Emily had given her the impression of avery kind-hearted woman. Hence, Fawn didn't think En twice about accepting the invitation. Vespera noticed how distraught Fawn was. "...Calm down. Act normal, will you? Someone's probably keeping an eye on you." "Okay, okay! I'll calm down." Fawn took a deep breath before smiling forcefully. "Do I look normal?" Vespera was speechless. Fawn didn't look normal to her, but a woman who looked like she was about to explode.
Vespera regretted telling Fawn about it. She held Fawn's trembling hands. believe it's best for you to leave immediately, but if you leave on your own now, it'll definitely be very dangerous.
"It's best if you can get someone to pick you up now. After all, there are so many of us in the banquet hall now, so it's safer to be here. Don't eat or drink anything that's specifically brought to you
