Upon seeing the two women with Clusian features and the fact that they recognized Clusian words, it was clear that they were part of the local Clusian community. Lenora didn't pay them any mind and continued to chat with Sophia.

Indeed, she had never seen anything like this vast estate before.

When the two women noticed Lenora looking their way, their conversation came to a halt. Upon Lenora turning away, they subtly shifted their topic of discussion. "Bella."

Within a few minutes, the Clusian woman beside Lenora suddenly shouted and stood up with her companion.

Lenora looked up, only to see Bella approaching with a ball gown in hand.

Bella halted then asked, "Alice, Anya, why are you sitting over here?"

Alice and Anya exchanged a glance, somewhat nervous as they said, "It's a bit noisy over there, but we should be asking you the same question.considering how busy you are. You don't have to come over here by yourself; we were just about to head over." "In that case, you guys should rest here."

Bella then bypassed the two individuals and approached Lenora. "Fay."

A glimmer of admiration flashed in Lenora's eyes as she put away her phone and stood up. "Bella, you look absolutely stunning today!"

Bella chuckled, taking Lenora's hand. "You too. Come on now. Since the banquet hasn't started yet, let me introduce you to my friends."

Alice and Anya's faces changed simultaneously as they exchanged a glance.

Bella approached the two of them, introducing Lenora with a smile, "Fay, this is Alice, and this is Anya. Alice, Anya, this is my friend, Fay. You're all Clusian, so get to know each other. Who knows, you might become good friends in the future." "Hello, everyone," Lenora greeted with a smile.

Alice had long since shed her awkward expression, revealing a warm smile. "Hello," she greeted.

"Hello," Anya responded, her lips forcing a smile.

Once Bella had left with Lenora, Anya's expression darkened. With a dismissive smirk, she said, "This explains it. She has been cozying up to Bella."

"Keep it down. If someone overhears us and tells Bella, she might just kick us out given her temper," Alice

reminded in a mocking tone,

Once they were at a safe distance, Bella whispered to Lenora, "Their fathers are business partners with my dad. That's the only reason they are invited. That said, I don't really yet along with the two of them? The reason was they got along better with Bella's mortal enemy

Lenora nodded in acknowledgment.

In another corner of the hall, a few young men and women were seated, including both foreigners and Clusians, Jermaine was among them.

Seeing Bella approach, they group began to greet her smilingly.

The atmosphere was light-hearted, and one could tell that these people were good friends with Bella

Bella introduced Lenora to her friends, "This is my university mate, Fay. She recently moved to Fairlake for work. She's a photographer. I hope you guys can get to know her and support her work"

As soon as the words were spoken, a foreigner chuckled. "So, the picture you posted on Instagram a couple of days ago was taken by Ms. Fay?"

"Yes, it was."

The man gave Lenora a warm smile. "You have a good eye. If an opportunity comes up, I'll recomm you to those who need your services.

"Thank you," Lenora replied with a polite smile.

Bella briefly introduced Lenora to the others, who were Bella's childhood friends, classmates, and other friends.

They were quite friendly and polite toward Lenora.

During their conversation, they would also subtly include the latter, so she wouldn't feel left out.

At eight in the evening, the lights in the hall suddenly dimmed. The spotlights then shone on the stage.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Mr. Saltzman's sixtieth birthday party..."

The birthday party had officially begun.

Ralph Saltzman, Bella's father, delivered a brief speech on stage.
