Serena turned away, about to head back to her room for some rest, when a maid rushed in.

"Mrs. Larson, two guests from the Jansen family have arrived. Shall I show them in?"

"What are they doing here?" Serena froze for a moment.

Serena's brows knitted together. "Didn't we already have the engagement party?" "They're saying they want to hold another one. A grander one."

Serena frowned. Now, that was suspicious. Who would hold two engagement parties?
