Madelyn was about to question Natasha when Jerome and Maverick arrived at the scene together.

Instantly, Natasha turned to the reassuring familiarity of Maverick’s presence for comfort. “Mave!” she wept.

The man glanced at her with his lips pursed. Not a single word left his mouth.

Under the dim yellow lighting, his expression was impenetrable.

Once Jerome had gotten a clear look at the remnant of wine and tears on his daughter’s face, he asked, “What happened here?”

The surrounding guests described the earlier incident to him. While they were siding with Natasha with every sentence they said, they did consider the wrath of Joaquin. On top of that, there was Gwendolyn’s stunning performance from earlier as well. As such, they did not make any remark that was out of line.

After listening to them for a while, Jerome had a rough idea of what had happened.

With a smile, he ushered the guests away and graciously asked that they continue partaking in food and drink. Then, he halfheartedly offered Natasha a few words of comfort before returning to the main banquet hall with everyone else.

Sobbing, Natasha held Maverick’s arm. The way she acted like a damsel in distress would surely arouse pity in the onlookers’ hearts. “Mave, don’t blame Gwendolyn for this. She’s probably in a bad mood because of our engagement.”

However, Maverick lowered his head to look at her, then asked in an impassive tone. “What did you say to her just now?”

Natasha was taken aback by his question. When she raised her head and saw that he seemed upset, she hurriedly explained, “We’re about to be engaged. All I wanted was her blessing. I never thought that she’d get angry and splash wine at me.”

“Is that so?” The man furrowed his brows as his expression grew even colder.

Holding onto the sliver of hope that he would believe her, Natasha nodded and tightened her grip on

his arm.

Almost instantly, Maverick withdrew his arm. “Tasha, seem to understand you less and less.”

She was stumped for words.

It was the first time she had experienced such coldness from him. Did he see through my ruse?

At that moment, she dared not continue with her act. If Maverick had actually noticed anything, he would only be more put off if she proceeded with the cover-up.

“Mave, it’s because Gwendolyn made fun of me using the ugly picture of me from my fiasco on the stage. I was enraged, so I tried to splash wine at her… I’ve not changed much, Mave. I’m still me.” Natasha explained.

Maverick said nothing in response, allowing her to ratile on next to him.
