Priscilla stepped into the private room, her eyes widening. Here were the giants of Graceland's business world—the names she usually only saw in financial newsprint.Being able to dine with them seemed like a dream. She excitedly looked around, knowing that all of this was made possible by Sirius, the godbrother she had just acknowledged.Her gaze suddenly snagged on a familiar face. It was Vivianne who was staring right at her. She was standing beside Theodore, the pair looked as though they'd just reached the cruise.But how could Vivianne be here? Jenaire City businessmen didn't usually qualify for an event like this.The reason for Vivianne's presence was simple. Theodore had taken her to Stanva City to meet an old friend, a prominent real estate mogul named Ken Garner.Ken had only recently joined them on the cruise and had extended the invitation to this very dinner.The other guests were reluctant to begin without their guest of honor, Sirius. The Monroes held immens

It seemed that Sirius considered Priscilla's status even above his own. Who exactly was she?As Priscilla elegantly walked toward the head of the table, her pristine white gown gave her the air of a celestial being, and everyone couldn't help but gaze up in awe."What? Shouldn't her attendant be assisting her? Why is she walking ahead?" someone remarked.Sensing the crowd's attention, Priscilla's heart fluttered with excitement as she reached the table. The guests were far from fools, and they realized Sirius' elaborate introduction was about to culminate."Mr. Sirius, do introduce us to this extraordinary lady.""With such poise, her background must be impeccable!"Sirius cleared his throat. "Allow me to formally present Ms. Priscilla Miller, CEO of a company from Jenaire City."The crowd was taken aback. They had assumed Priscilla hailed from a powerful family, not the unremarkable Jenaire City. In the eyes of these business titans, the city held no figures of consequence.

Grace poured herself a glass of red wine and stepped forward. "Thank you all for supporting Ms. Miller. Since Ms. Miller isn't a strong drinker, please allow me, Grace Anderson, to toast you all on her behalf."Her intentions were clear; she wanted to showcase herself and ensure the regional tycoons recognized her importance.The crowd exchanged confused glances. This was a highly unusual move for an attendant. They were there out of respect for Sirius and to build connections with Priscilla. Engaging with an attendant wasn't on the agenda, especially when they'd much rather be toasting Priscilla herself.Sirius's expression conveyed his discomfort with Grace's breach of etiquette. Sensing the awkward atmosphere, Priscilla subtly tugged at Grace's clothes in an attempt to stop her. Confused by the lack of enthusiasm, Grace whispered to Priscilla, "They're disrespecting me by not wanting to drink. Perhaps they don't know I'm soon to be the young madam of the Harmon family. Le

Everyone suddenly realized that Nelson belonged to the prestigious Harmon family, one of the four major families in Stanva City.They turned to Priscilla, offering their admiration. "Ms. Miller, you truly have amazing connections. Having a Harmon as your attendant's boyfriend reflects their immense respect for you. And for an attendant, she does possess a certain presence. She certainly outshines some others I've seen."Due to wealthy families often having many children, the four major families had numerous members over the generations, including many side branches. Naturally, not every descendant could bask equally in their family's influence, resulting in varying social statuses within Stanva City.Unless they held important roles within the family, like Clifford, many would be considered ordinary members of the wealthy elite, sometimes even less.Though from a direct line, Nelson was ultimately comparable to run-of-the-mill wealthy heirs. However, no one paid him much attent

Theodore proactively poured a glass of red wine, intending to toast with Grace.Although his previous dealings in medicinal herbs with Priscilla had ended disastrously, he had won the lawsuit and the matter was now in the past.Feeling old enough to be a mentor rather than a foe to Priscilla, he decided not to dwell on past grievances. Bumping into Priscilla in Stanva City and seeing her secretary's toast made him think a toast could be a good way to move on.His magnanimity was evident.However, Grace was not as forgiving, especially when facing Vivianne.When she saw Vivianne's father approach her with a toast, her expression soured. "Oh, I wouldn't dare accept a toast from Mr. Danbury, I'm afraid of being framed by Mr. Danbury once again."Theodore's face darkened at the accusation. Before he could respond, Vivianne erupted. "What nonsense are you spouting, Grace? Your underhanded business dealings are why you lost the lawsuit! Now you have the nerve to make accusations?"G

Grace pretended to be innocent. "I didn't do anything! I'm just a little tipsy and lost my balance, that's all. I wouldn't dream of bumping into such a distinguished gentleman like Mr. Danbury. Surely, you wouldn't hold such a minor incident against me? That would be rather petty, wouldn't you agree?"Vivianne bristled. "Don't play coy, Grace! Everyone saw it! That's a deliberate bump and then a flimsy excuse about being drunk. You're just itching for a fight!"Ignoring Vivianne's outburst, Grace turned to the room. A sly smile played on her lips. "Gentlemen, be honest. Did it appear intentional?"Naturally, the tide turned in Grace's favor."Ms. Anderson did have quite a few drinks, and those high heels can be tricky. It was a simple loss of balance, I'm sure.""A grown man getting flustered over a bump? That's a bit childish, wouldn't you say?""Indeed, we wouldn't want to share a meal with someone so easily ruffled."Vivianne was about to confront the crowd when Theodore gent

After returning to Priscilla‘s side, Grace felt very pleased with herself and gave Priscilla a smug smile. "See, Vivianne's dirty little tricks mean nothing in front of Mr. Sirius, right? Even Theodore wouldn't dare utter a word in front of me."Priscilla was also feeling quite thrilled, even though her cousin's actions seemed a bit over the top. But for dealing with people like the Danbury family who had slandered her, such tactics were necessary.Across the table, Mr. Sirius observed the flustered Danbury family with a helpless shake of his head. Normally, he might have intervened. After all, Vivianne was Frederick's woman. But here, the choice was clear—Priscilla over the Danburys, especially since Vivianne was just a mistress.A flicker of envy crossed Mr. Sirius's mind. Frederick seemed to have a knack for attracting stunning women, something even he, as the acting head of the powerful Monroe family, couldn't compete with.Shrugging off the feeling, he reaffirmed his commitm

Grace's suggestion left Priscilla speechless. Publicly confessing to a man she'd met twice? What a joke!"Grace, don't talk nonsense."Seeing Priscilla's flustered reaction, Grace sighed. "Oh, my silly Prissy, you have to be bold! Opportunities like this don't just fall into your lap. If you're too shy, then let me help you."With that, Grace walked straight toward Sirius, leaving Priscilla anxiously stomping her foot in place, wanting to stop her but it was too late. She feared Grace might do something over the top, especially since she had already overstepped boundaries earlier and was now drunk.Reaching Sirius, Grace asked, "Mr. Sirius, forgive me if this is a bit forward, but... are you single?"The room went silent as everyone turned their attention to the pair. A ripple of nervous energy crackled through the crowd, suddenly curious about Sirius's answer.Sirius's expression darkened as he looked at Grace disapprovingly. To ask such a personal question in such a public
