At that moment, in front of the Quill estate’s grand entrance, Raina hurried

along with her father, Jake. The sounds of lively chatter and laughter drifted

from a nearby building, heightening her sense of urgency.

“Darn it, we must have missed Ms. Yuna’s performance,” Raina exclaimed, her

anxiety palpable. As a devoted fan of Yuna, she had eagerly anticipated this

event. However, with the Fletcher family now at odds with the Quill family,

Yuna hadn’t sent her a special invitation. Had she not accompanied her

father, she likely wouldn’t have dared to come at all.

Jake shot her a stern glare, silencing her complaints. The Fletcher family had

chosen to align itself with Emmanuel, creating an insurmountable rift

between them and the Quill family. With Yuna firmly positioned alongside the

Quills, she became their enemy. Faced with such a significant divide, Jake felt

a mix of irritation and concern regarding his daughter’s infatuation with Yuna.

It was one thing for a man to be captivated, but what was the point of a

woman obsessing over another woman?

His gaze shifted toward the Quill estate’s gate, where Denis and his daughter,

Sonia, had arrived even earlier. Beside them was a chubby little creature,

Shane, who clung affectionately to Sonia’s side.

“Richard, Mr. Fletcher, welcome! I didn’t expect you both to show up,” the Quill

family’s elderly butler announced, a sinister smirk playing on his lips. To him,

the uninvited presence of the Toma and Fletcher families felt like an

audacious plunge into a carefully laid trap–an unwelcome venture into

darkness when a path to safety remained open.

“If we’re truly welcome, then why are so many of your people on guard

against us?” Denis, known for his bluntness, replied with a cold retort. They

were well aware of the banquet’s true nature–it was a cunning setup aimed

at Emmanuel.

Having pledged their loyalty to the Quill family, how could they demonstrate

sincerity if they didn’t follow Emmanuel into this gathering? As heads of

prominent families, both men possessed a level of courage and strategic

foresight necessary for high–stakes situations. This was a gamble, a wager

on their fates. Regardless of the outcome, they had to stand alongside
