Out of sight, out of mind. This felt nice.


    I changed into a light blue dress and tied my hair into a bun at the back of my head to appear more


    mature.


    Then, I put on a shiny headband and let a few strands of hair fall gently on both sides of my face. I


    applied a light-colored lipstick and lightly brushed my eyebrows. Overall, it made me charming and


    elegant.


    When the professor saw me, he looked slightly amazed. Then, he began toin about how his


    wife didn''t give birth to a daughter. Heined that his son was useless and just caused trouble.


    Having a sweet daughter would be much better.


    Upon arrival, I realized it was a gathering of high-society elites. The so-called high society actually


    consisted of two main groups. The first was those who were more toward wealth and power, and the


    second was those with deep family and cultural backgrounds.


    Previously, Colin mentioned that the Kings where the professor was from had a history of over 200


    years. They had connections with the royal family. With such a family background and immeasurable


    assets, they also hold a lofty position in the cultural sphere.


    Combined with their wealth, the Kings had far surpassed other wealthy families, establishing


    themselves alongside the prestigious Lamberts in Jinovy.


    Colin didn''t borate much at that time, butter I learned that this was Andrew''s family. It was only


    then that I realized how prestigious Andrew was. And Queenie was incredibly lucky to have met him


    and to be loved and protected by him for a lifetime.Original content from N?velDrama.Org.


    The gathering was held in Eden Hall on the top floor of the Jones Hotel. The decorations appeared


    simple and in at first nce, but upon closer inspection, there was an understated luxury in every


    detail.


    Even the decorative paintings on the walls were created by world-renowned artists, and their value was


    beyond measure.


    In the hall, there were elegant andposed aristocratic young people everywhere. They were all


    dressed splendidly, exuding radiance and splendor. They carried themselves as if they were the most


    important one among those gathered.


    As a mere graduate student at Jesselton College, being personally introduced by the cultural


    representative of the Kings made me the focus of the attendees.


    Almost everyone was observing me


    et


    and discussing my background in whispers. Some even spected that I had a rtionship with the


    professor. Otherwise, how could the esteemed Professor King treat amon student like me with


    such importance and personally bring me to such a gathering?


    Such was the nature of people. As soon as the words "man and woman" were mentioned, there would


    always be spections. These people, with their own matice and filth, were only seeking tofort


    themselves with baseless assumptions.


    My rtionship with the professor was straightforward. I respected him as a master of his field, and he


    acknowledged my talent and diligence. Why should we fear the spection of the world?


    My attire was not as extravagant as the others, with only a pair of pearl earrings and no other jewelry. It


    made me appear simple and elegant.


    But I took pride in my upbringing in a schrly family, along with the things my parents had taught me.


    It had endowed me with a pure and noble temperament.


    Casually following behind the


    professor, unexpectedly obtained the contact information of several influential figures. I couldn''t help


    but feel pleased. I didn''t attend this gathering in vain, and the professor''s intentions were met.


    Indeed, there were still many good people in this world.
