After taking a look at the text message, Nora turned off the screen, and tossed the cell phone back into her pantsuit's pocket again.

When she looked up, she noticed that Rachel was looking at her.

She said exaggeratedly, "Hey, Sheril, why isn't your cousin wearing a dress? Doesn ‘t she dance?"

Nora’s pantsuit was actually a form of veiled rejection.

None of the wealthy and nobles liked being embarrassed, so they usually spoke tactfully and would never go too far.

However, what Rachel said was too direct.

The look in Nora's eyes darkened slightly, but before she could say anything, Sheril said, "Neither of us is dancing tonight."

"Why not?" asked Rachel, despite knowing exactly why.

She asked, "Are you not going to dance just because you don't have Caden with you now? Why don't I lend him to you for a dance, then?"

She nudged Caden.

Sheril subconsciously glanced at Caden.

The man in the black tuxedo looked handsome and gentlemanly, but he didn't dare to meet her eyes.

When Rachel pushed him forward, Caden automatically took a step back and stood next to her again.

He said, "Rachel, we've already agreed that I'll be your dance partner tonight.If I dance with Sheril, then what about you?"

Rachel raised her chin slightly and said, "Tsk, what's the big deal? Men have the right to choose, right? You can choose between me and her, can't you?"

Then, she cast her eyes down and said with a smile, "Sheril and I are cousins, so we're real close.No matter who you choose, the other party won't get mad.Right, Sheril?"

Caden looked at Sheril cautiously.

Sheril's heart would always ache whenever he gave her such a fawning look in the past.

He was clearly talented, yet he was always looked down upon because of his background.

Every time he made her angry, she would always relent whenever he looked at her like that.
