The engagement banquet did not start so quickly, and Marion arrived neither too early nor too late.

She chose a quiet corner, planning to stay for a while and then leave. But then she encountered someone familiar.

Martin nodded, “No wonder. I was wondering why Lucas would let you come to a place like this on your own.”

“A place like this?”

Marion found Martin’s words amusing.
