"Just you wait, Sarah. Your day will come."

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.

"They said they're here to discuss the engagement party for Mr. Cole and Ms. Sarah," the maid explained.

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?
