Chapter 800

Rosalie had a delicate demeanor. That day, she had lighter makeup on, with the focus drawn to her eyes. Her long hair was tied up, and a few strands fell neatly around her face, further accentuating her elegant temperament.

It did not make people think she was unfit to stand beside Jonathan. On the contrary, her serene conduct seemed to meld seamlessly with Jonathan’s natural charm. Others only felt pleased as they looked at them side-by-side.

Among those people, some men looked at Rosalie with amazement. Jonathan frowned slightly at that.

She may not immediately catch someone’s eye, but the longer they looked at her, the more at ease they would feel. Eventually, standing next to her, they would feel completely at peace.

Perhaps this was her magic, which made it harder and harder for him to extricate himself from her.

The gazes of those men made him feel as if his carefully guarded treasure was being coveted.

Rosalie smiled slightly, knowing that Jonathan had brought her to the banquet to officially declare her existence in the upper-class coterie.
