“Of course, you can!” Yelena replied without any hesitation.

She felt it was alright for her to bring her best friend. After all, she was certain that her best friend must be someone from a wealthy and powerful family.

‘I wonder if she’s one of the four big families from Centrolis or not. If I can gain her favor, it’ll help me a lot in the future!’

With that thought in mind, Yelena approached Zennie and said, “Where is your friend now, Ms. Hamerton? If she doesn’t have transport, I can send someone to pick her up! Don’t worry. I promise you that I’ll bring her here safely!”

“That’s not necessary.” Zennie smiled. “My friend came with me, and she’s upstairs now. It’s just that the Jenners are the hosts of this event, so I figured that I should get your permission first if I wanted to bring my friend here.”

“Don’t mention it, Ms. Hamerton,” Yelena chuckled. She turned around and ordered a few waiters. “Bring Ms. Hamerton’s friend to the main table later.”

Zennie raised her brows. “Ms. Jenner, are you sure that your parents and you aren’t going to sit at the main table?”

“It’s okay!” Joanne chimed in. “It’s our honor to have you and your friend with us here tonight, and your presence has brought light to this event!”

She tried her best to curry favor with Zennie.

“Ms. Hamerton, you should call your friend and join us now. It isn’t appropriate to leave her alone in the room.”
