"In the past, our master never brought a woman along," Aunt Fang said with a cheeky smile.
"..." The Lan Bay Manor?
That place, Eva Nightingale had heard of it, but she never thought he would take her there as a dance partner.
"Miss, please rest for a while. Assistant North will come to pick you up this afternoon."
Aunt Fang said and then withdrew.
Eva Nightingale took a nap in her room.
When she awoke, Harry North was just pulling up in a luxury car, arriving at the villa.
Harry North entered the living room as Aunt Fang hurried upstairs to call Eva.
"Miss Nightingale, Assistant North has come to pick you up."
In the room, Eva put on a coat and opened the door to come out.
She hadn’t attended an upper-class society gathering for some time. Even though she used to frequent high society, she felt a bit anxious about attending an event at Lan Bay Manor.
After all, that place.
It’s the most luxurious place in the entire Sovereign Empire, occupying the entire mountaintop, with villas and castles standing grand and mysterious. It’s a symbol of supreme power.
Eva descended the stairs, accompanied by Harry North, and got into a black luxury car to leave.
On the road, she anxiously asked, "Harry, how is Ella’s mind doing?"
So much had happened recently, and she hadn’t seen Ella White for several days.
The last time, she was clamoring for an abortion, which scared Eva terribly, but fortunately... she wasn’t really pregnant.
She was still at the Military District Hospital when Eva left last time, mainly because she got hurt... Eva needed to find some time to visit Ella White.
"Miss Ella returned to the White Estate, and I heard..." Harry said as he drove, "I heard that a few days ago, she had some conflict with Edward. In a fit of anger, Edward scolded her to tears, and as a result, Miss Ella ran away from home... who knows how she is now."
Harry only found out about this while playing cards with some young masters that night.
That night, Edward drank quite a bit.
"..." Eva was momentarily stunned.
If it’s really as Harry said... then Ella has been out for days, what if something happened?
As her heart raced with anxiety, Harry continued, "Don’t worry, Miss."
"Edward has always cherished Miss Ella."
"He certainly won’t let anything happen to her... He will definitely bring Miss Ella back."
"Hmm." Eva could see that Edward deeply cared for her, but she wasn’t sure why he acted so harshly towards her.
She touched her belly; now that she’s pregnant, the doctor said she shouldn’t get emotionally agitated, so she couldn’t think too much.
She could only attend the banquet tonight and then visit the White Estate to see her.
She felt truly guilty.
That night, if it weren’t for saving her, Ella White wouldn’t have hurt her mind!
She would rather be the one to lose her memory.
The car did not head directly to the Lan Bay Manor but drove towards Emperor Grand Group in the city, stopping in front of a large shopping mall.
Harry got out of the car and opened the door.
Respectfully, "Miss, please get out of the car."
Eva struggled a bit to get out of the car.
She was confused, but she mostly guessed that they were here for makeup.
In high society, etiquette was always emphasized, and first impressions required a ladylike, sophisticated appearance.
Even though, she already looked quite exceptional.
Harry deliberately slowed his pace because the Crown Prince instructed him to keep a careful watch over her, and Harry knew the miss was pregnant, so he walked extraordinarily slow.
Although the Nightingale Family was considered a prestigious family in the Sovereign Capital back then.
Eva had never been to such a luxurious place.
