    Jacintha giggled, herpliments sounding natural as she said, “Mr. Romello, you''re so responsible! With your leadership, the


    Nicholls family will surely flourish.”


    “Thank you for your kind words,” Romello replied with a somewhat indifferent smile.


    The servant who went to find Nathaniel quickly returned, a concerned expression on his


    face.


    “Mr. Romello, Mr. Nathaniel isn’t in his room. | couldn’t find him anywhere.”


    Romello’s expression darkened instantly, muttering under his breath, “How could he disappear right before the banquet? Find


    him immediately!”


    “Yes, sir.”


    The servant hurriedly darted off.


    Lionel and Jacintha exchanged nces, sensing the tension in the air.


    As if realizing something, Jacintha quickly changed the subject, “Mr. Romello, did you n the banquet all by yourself? It’s so


    exquisitely arranged. Could | ask you for some advice?”


    Lionel chimed in, “Mr. Romello, what''s wrong? It''s supposed to be a joyous asion tonight, but you seem a bit displeased.”


    Romello softened his stern gaze and continued to smile politely.


    He was about to respond to Jacintha’s question when he noticed the butler hurrying


    toward them.


    “Mr. Romello...” the butler began, but Sheena interrupted him.


    “Where’s Gabrielle? | haven’t seen her around. She usually loves these lively events,”


    Sheena asked with a gentle smile.


    Caught off guard, the butler replied, “Ms. Gabrielle is probably still in her room getting reacy. Mr. Romello bought her a new pair


    of crystal earrings the other day, so she might still be deciding on which to wear.”


    “| see...” Sheena nodded understandingly.


    “Excuse me, Mrs. Jenkins, | have something urgent to discuss with Mr. Romello,” the butler said, attempting to move past


    Sheena.


    Sheena blocked his path, politely insisting, “The Nicholls residence is sorge, and I’m unfamiliar with theyout. Could you


    please apany me to find Gabrielle’s room?”


    “Well...”


    Sheena continued, “I’m sure Mr. Romello is busy with the guests, and any urgent matters can wait until after the banquet.”


    The butler hesitated for a moment. He nced over to where Romello was upied with Lionel and Jacintha.


    Seeing that Romello’s attention waspletely diverted, the butler relented.


    “Alright. Mrs. Jenkins, please follow me.”


    “Thank you.”

    Spotting Nathaniel’s arrival, he quickly dismissed Lionel and Jacintha, striding over to Nathaniel.


    “Why did you take so long toe down? Where were you just now?” Romello


    demanded.


    Nathaniel kept his head down, obediently replying, “I’m not sure what happened, but my stomach was upset. | had to use the


    toilet for quite some time.”


    Though Romello was clearly displeased, he could not publicly criticize Nathaniel for a basic bodily need, especially in front of so


    many guests.


    Afterposing himself, Romello continued, “How are the preparations going? There’s no room for failure tonight. Do you


    understand?”


    “Yes, don’t worry. I''ll execute everything perfectly.”
