Chapter 39

As Quinlyn stood there with calm and clear eyes, several of the more perceptive adults began to rethink their initial judgments of her. They exchanged looks and subtly signaled to their sons.

“Go ask Quinlyn to dance later,” one mother whispered, nudging her son.

Unfortunately, most of the kids were already drawn to Harriet. With her poised and regal appearance, she had clearly caught their attention. The boy had picked up on his mom’s carlier signals, and so he resisted her subtle nudge.

“I don’t want to dance with that ugly duckling. If I’m going to dance, it should be with Harriet. She’s the real princess!” the boy scoffed.

The adults exchanged surprised glances.

What nonsense. Harriet’s the adopted daughter. She’s not even on Edward’s radar. they thought.

But before they could try to talk some sense into the kids, Quinlyn spoke up again.

“We’re about to start the opening dance, but my dress got dirty. I want to change into a new one. So, if anyone can go out and buy a new dress that I like. I’ll dance with them.”

The room fell silent instantly.

No one had ever heard such a request at a banquet before. She was asking someone to go out, find a dress, and bring it back. If she hadn’t been the Anderson family’s precious young lady on stage, everyone would’ve laughed at her boldness.

But since Quinlyn was Edward’s precious girl, the guests, though battled, didn’t immediately protest.

Maurice and Tina stood frozen, stunned by her request. As they processed what was happening, they were about to rush up to the stage to stop Quinlyn before she embarrassed herself further.

Before they could make a move, a cheerful voice cut through the tension.

“Does that mean anyone, regardless of gender, can join in?” Claude asked, stepping forward with Mandy’s hand in his, his grin wide. “If I bring back a dress you like, does that mean Mandy could dance with you, too!”
