Chapter 41

The moment the Hawke family heard the ticket price was a hundred thousand dollars each, they were absolutely floored.

Lysander moved his lips. "What... a hundred thousand dollars each?"

Might as well be highway robbery.

Granted, for some events, a hundred thousand dollars for an entry ticket wasn't outrageous.

But they needed three more tickets. That would be three hundred thousand dollars. And it wasn't even some elite, exclusive banquet.

Sure, it was hosted by the Lancaster Group, but still, nothing extraordinarily special.

But the Hawke family had already dressed to the nines and backing out now was just not an option. They couldn't let anyone see them falter.

So, with no other choice, they reluctantly parted with the three hundred thousand dollars.

Dorian paid with his card, his brow furrowed tightly. Sure, he wasn't hurting for that kind of money, but how he spent it definitely affected the mood.

Once the tickets were paid for, security finally let the Hawke family in. As soon as they entered, they spotted the Blackwell family.

Warm greetings were exchanged, and Alden and Grace moved over to mingle with the Blackwell elders. Theo wasn't attending tonight due to a previous injury from an incident with Miranda that left a scar. While the elders chatted away, Arabella was off talking to two familiar heiresses.
