"Crown Prince, what Miss Nightingale purchased is..."
Harry North hesitated, unable to articulate.
Lucas Knight: "What is it?!"
Harry North paused: "..." Sir, it’s better if you don’t know!
Lucas Knight’s voice was impatient: "What exactly is it?" Great, Harry’s getting bolder, daring to defy his intentions?
"Harry, you have two choices. Either speak, or leave—"
"Leave for Africa and never appear before me again."
He’s really going to exile Harry!
"I dare not, Crown Prince, spare me!" Harry North’s survival instincts were strong, "Crown Prince, I’ll speak, I’ll speak, please don’t send me to Africa."
"The items Miss Nightingale purchased..."
"Are con-traceptive pills, a pregnancy test kit, mint flavored gum..."
Con-traceptive pills? Lucas Knight frowned in displeasure, smirked self-deprecatingly, and looked at the pharmacy, alright, they dared to sell such things to her?
The little woman is quite bold.
"Harry, either make this shop disappear..."
"Or I’ll make you disappear, choose one."
Harry: "Spare me, sir. I’ll handle making this shop disappear, I’ll ensure Heart to Heart disappears from the Sovereign Empire immediately."
"Hmm." Lucas Knight nodded satisfactorily.
Harry sighed: Well, managed to save my life. Being around the master feels like my life is always at risk, better be prepared to meet King Yama any time.
Should the Crown Prince get upset one day and have my head chopped off, then it would be game over.
The nanny van stopped at the entrance of the Clan Nightingale mansion, Eva Nightingale got out and walked in on the red carpet.
"Miss, you’re back!" The former housekeeper still respectfully addressed Eva Nightingale.
"Yes, I’m back." Eva responded softly, returning a smile.
The birthday banquet had already started, previously Violet Hargrove and Amos Nightingale had sent out the invitations, and by this time, most people had arrived.
The banquet hall was set at the villa behind the old mansion of Clan Nightingale, with a stage erected in the garden, and luxurious red carpets lining the way.
Eva Nightingale walked along the red carpet to the banquet hall, clutching an exquisite box in her arms, containing the gift she carefully prepared for the elderly lady.
In the banquet hall, glasses clinked and people mingled.
Eva Nightingale wore a dark red strapless gown, paired with beautiful crystal high heels.
Her outfit truly captivated attention; she was already beautiful, and now dressed , her noble aura overshadowed the surrounding ladies and wealthy women.
Beside her, the rich young men had their burning gazes fixed on Eva Nightingale.
"I heard Miss Nightingale is a renowned beauty in the Sovereign Capital of China, and seeing her tonight, she truly lives up to the reputation—"
"More beautiful than magazine and newspaper pics—"
"Miss Nightingale, would you care for a dance?" A man already stepped forward, attempting to invite Eva Nightingale.
"Sorry, I must first deliver a gift to my grandmother, apologies for not accompanying." After gently declining, Eva went upstairs with the box in her arms.
The second floor housed the VIP lounge.
Not mentioning whether she had time, even if she did, she wouldn’t dance with those men.
Although hand-holding during a dance and the hand-kissing etiquette were common in high society, Eva Nightingale had no intention to dance with other men...
She thought, if he danced with another woman behind her back, she’d be upset, wouldn’t she?
Once on the second floor, she delivered the gift to the elderly lady, extended her blessings, and then went to the restroom.
