"Hmph It's because I am a natural beauty."

"Yes, yes."

Federick flashed a gentle smile.

"Do you believe me now? Let's go.We are heading over now." Yelena nodded in reply.She thought it was just a banquet, but when they arrived, she suddenly felt nervous.She felt out of place as she watched the stylish and sophisticated people passing by.

Noticing this, Federick nudged her arm.

"What's wrong? Weren't you looking forward to this? Why are you so nervous now?"

Yelena's face turned slightly pink.

"I didn't expect to see so many people."

"There are indeed a lot of people at this banquet."

Federick smiled and took a glass of champagne handed to him by a waiter while casually getting one for Yelena too.

"What is our purpose for coming here today?" Yelena asked this question without much thought.

Upon realizing the silliness of her words, she quickly took a sip of champagne to calm herself down.

"For fun.Nothing much."

"Fun?"

Yelena looked at him with confusion and asked the question that she had been thinking about for the longest time.

"Who are you exactly? How do you manage to come to a place like this?"

Federick only smirked and winked.

"Take a guess."

"Guess, my foot.Why can't you just tell me?"
