"What are you doing?" the girl quietly asked when Nathan put his hands around her waist. Her voice was tender yet hesitant, sending him an ambiguous signal of both eagerness and rejection. Nathan's voice was a little h oa rse. "Why? You could dance with other men on the dance floor of the bar that day, but not with me?" he challenged.

When his eyes fell upon the girl on the dance floor the other day, he had an undeniable urge to hold her waist and dance with her.

every beat.

She had danced like no one else. Her body was soft and agile, and her movements were flexible yet graceful, almost boneless. Her body moved in perfect sync

with every It was difficult to believe that she had never learned to dance. Was she really the silly girl from the countryside?

"What?" Caroline said inwardly.

Caroline glared at Nathan. She could not believe Nathan had the audacity to bring up what had happened on the dance floor that day.

Meanwhile, a pair of eyes glowed with envy at the two on the dance floor. It was Wrenna.

From afar, Wrenna watched as Nathan and Caroline danced. As a man who was groomed by the rich and powerful to be the heir to his family's wealth, Nathan moved with impeccable grace. His every step bore witness to his elite education.

Caroline was also good at dancing. Whether she had learned to dance formally was a mystery, but her body was undeniably elegant and graceful as she twirled and swayed. around Nathan.

As the two danced together, Nathan's expensive suit and Caroline's skirt with blooming rose patterns intertwined in an eye-catching and ambiguously sensual way. Everyone in the dance hall watched them dance.

Wrenna had spent days preparing to win over the man she desired, but now he was taken away by Caroline, who was nothing but an ugly woman from the countryside.

Caroline stole the limelight, catching every eye with her mesmerizing dancing. Wrenna was left feeling like a mere shadow in the crowd, which had never happened in her life.

As someone who had been arrogant and prideful, Wrenna could not bear being overshadowed by someone else.

Wrenna seethed with anger and frustration. Her long nails dug into her skin as she watched Caroline become the center of attention. She refused to believe she had lost to

To make matters worse, Francesca had taken notice of the situation. Her face contorted in shock as she questioned, "How did Nathan end up dancing with Caroline?" Caroline was the granddaughter she despised the most. Francesca wondered why they were together.

"Da mn it. This woman has even caught Grandma's attention," Wrenna cursed inwardly.

Wrenna wondered if Caroline was winning over Francesca's heart, consequently leaving her unnoticed. The thought of losing Nathan to someone like Caroline was unbearable. However, Wrenna was not one to give up easily. She had tricks up her sleeves. She winked at her mother, Nicole, who also nodded in understanding. Wrenna was convinced she could turn the tables in her favor.

Suddenly, the music came to a pause, and the dance was brought to a halt by a loud, thunderous clap.

Clap! Clap! Clap!

The clap was so loud it sounded like tides slamming on the shore.

Nathan loosened his grip on Caroline.

"Mr. Faraday!" Nicole jumped to her feet and called out to him. "Nathan, please wait a moment. You have no idea what Caroline's true nature is. While I am aware that airing someone else's dirty laundry is wrong, I feel compelled to warn you, Mr. Faraday. Don't be taken in by her. I can't help but tell you the scandals that Caroline is involved in!"

Curious, everyone's ears perked up at the mention of a scandal.

Caroline looked in Nicole's direction. She could guess what Nicole was about to say.

Her red lips curled into a smile. "Aunt Nicole, I'd like to ask you not to talk about such things at times like this," she pleaded gently.

"Are you scared, Caroline?" Nicole taunted. "The more you try to stop me, the more I want to spill your dirty little/secrets. Like how you spent last Friday night at Statham Hotel with an old bald man!" Alfred's mind raced back to that night at Statham Hotel when he heard that. He recalled Caroline being there with Nathan, not an old bald man.

Alfred looked at Nicole, stunned. "Oh my god, how dare she call Nathan a balding old

man!"

Nathan had a full head of hair. Alfred was puzzled when they mistook him for a balding old man.

Alfred could tell Wrenna was in for a rough time.

Nathan paused and shot Nicole a piercing glare.

On the other hand, Joseph, who had no fear, chimed in, "Nathan, it's true. We have photos on our phones." Joseph took out his phone.
