Chapter 228

The banquet was held at the estate south of Launu.

It was just after dawn when Olivia set off. The sky was dyed with a faint shade of blade, and the grayish–blue color had a unique kind of beauty. Mia sat beside Olivia.

She was in a much better state now. She was no longer so nervous that she could not sleep at night as before.

However, it was not a whole lot better. She was still a little uneasy.

She forced herself to maintain her composure and turned to Olivia. “Olivia, follow me when we get there. Don’t be nervous. I’ll take care of you.”

Olivia tilted her head and looked out of the car window at the rapidly passing trees.

Hearing Mia’s words, she rolled her eyes and chuckled. “Okay.”

The Devonstern family’s manor was enormous. The guests‘ cars had to be parked in an empty space specially reserved for parking. Then, the servants would lead them into the banquet hall.

At this time, there were not many guests yet. Daniel Sullivan was discussing something with the Duke in the study upstairs.

Mia brought Olivia to a corner, where they drank wine and chatted.

After a short conversation, there was a commotion at the entrance of the hall.

It seemed like some distinguished guest had arrived.

The people of Gorshire were all very tall. Mia’s view was completely blocked, and she could not see anything.

She raised her hand to stop a male waiter and asked in fluent Gorshish, “What’s going on at the door?”

The waiter stopped in his tracks and replied respectfully, “It’s Athene’s friend, David. Athene seems to care a lot about this friend.”

So it was Athene’s friend.

Mia subconsciously stood on her tiptoes and looked at the crowd. Her eyes flashed with yearning.

Athene was Duke Devonstern’s granddaughter, and she was of noble

She was looking over curiously.

The crowd parted to the sides, and a path appeared. A thin and tall young man walked over.
