Isabella strutted over in her high heels, her demeanor proud and haughty. "Mia, I can't believe you're wearing another man's jacket to the banquet. What kind of impression are you giving my brother?"

Raising an eyebrow, Mia responded, “Lewis and I have no relationship. As for whose jacket I wear to the banquet, do you have any say in it?" “But the news outside is all about you and Lewis getting engaged soon. This decision is made by both our families, and whether you agree or not doesn't matter. So you'd better tone it down."

At that moment, a middle-aged woman approached Mia and said, "Ms. Lane, don't be hesitant. My son truly adores you. If you consent, our family will organize a lavish wedding for you."

Isabella chimed in, nodding vigorously. "Yes, Mom. But Mia is wearing another man's jacket to the banquet. It's obvious she doesn't care about Lewis. Someone like her isn't deserving of him."
