Ivanov looked toward the entrance and said with a smile to Merrick, “Grandfather, Lilian has arrived.” Tracy, standing nearby, was also astonished. “Is that her?”

Merrick stood up, his eyes sharp. “She is the unmannered orphan you spoke of.” He then walked directly toward the entrance.

Linette and the others quickly followed suit.

Sebastian handed his coat to Foster behind him, then led Lilian into the ballroom.

The people around them whispered to each other.

“I can’t believe the head of Empire Group is attending the Philips Corp gala. That’s truly unexpected.”

“Did you forget Sebastian’s other identity? The two families must have a connection back in Murica.”

“Is that the fiancée with him, Lilian?”

“Yes, that’s her. I saw her on television. I didn’t expect her to be even more beautiful in person.”

Merrick walked up to them, teasing with a laugh, “I thought you were going to be stuck in traffic until tomorrow!”

Lilian gave the man beside her a playful, annoyed look, then said to Merrick, “Grandfather, you can’t blame me this time; it’s all his fault that we’re late.”

They had been ready to go at seven, but the man–she didn’t know what got into him–just kept holding her and wouldn’t let her leave. If she hadn’t threatened him, they would probably still be at home.

Sebastian looked gently at the girl with his deep eyes. “Yes, it’s my fault.”

Merrick looked at them both, chuckling. “You two! All you d

o is flaunt your love in front of me all day. Are you trying to make this old man experience having love flaunted in front of him too?”

Just then, Ivanov walked over and smiled at Lilian. “Beautiful woman, do you remember me?”

Lilian looked at Ivanov and nodded. “I remember, Ivanov.”

Merrick looked puzzled. “You know Lilian?”

Sebastian also looked confused.

“Yes!” Ivanov said. “She’s the beautiful woman who helped me subdue the thief! Didn’t I tell you about it yesterday?”

Merrick suddenly realized, “So the formidable heroine you were describing was Lilian! That truly is surprising.

Sebastian glanced at Ivanov, then whispered into Lilian’s ear, “Why didn’t I know about this?”

Lilian gave the man an irritated look. “You didn’t ask! Besides, I’d forgotten all about it when we got back.”

Houis and Jackson walked over at this moment.

“Dad, who is this?” Houis asked Lilian, eager to know who this girl who bore such a striking resemblance to his mother was.

Jackson also stared intensely at Lilian. For some reason, he had a dark premonition in his heart.

Merrick looked at the group and said solemnly, “This is Lilian, my granddaughter.”

The moment the words left his mouth, a loud crash echoed–the sound of a wine glass shattering on the floor. Jackson, looking panicked and flustered, said, “Apologies, it slipped.”

Lilian looked at Jackson and sneered. “Your face looks terrible. Are you alright?”

Jackson’s expression was strained. “I’m fine. I’m just going to clean the wine stain off my leg. Excuse me.” He hurried toward the restroom.

Lilian watched Jackson’s hasty retreat, a chilling smile appearing on her lips.
