"This is all that man's doing!" Red-faced, Eliza hissed. She started pacing inside the room. "I already know that he would try to get back at you!"

"You know… if your mother sees you like this, she would immediately tell you to act like a lady." The mysterious smile plastered on Lily's face only made Eliza frown.

"You seem to enjoy this? You — " Eliza sighed as she sat on the couch next to Lily. "I know how my sister loves this dress. She might think that you deliberately did this because of what happened last night. I don't want her to think like that." Moreover, she would not want her sister to choose between Lily and her husband. Eliza knew how much Mikaela loves her husband. She also happened to know that just like Eliza, Mikaela would like to have a good relationship with Lily.

"I understand." Lily nodded as she opened her phone and started snapping photos of the dress.

"What are you doing?"

���Telling her that I won't wear the dress because it's ruined." This is such a small thing. There is no need for Lily to waste her time getting riled up by something like this. "I would not ruin my mood just because of the dress." She calmly explained before she sent all the photos that she took to Mikaela.

Sometimes, people just over complicate things when they can just calmly explain the situation to each other. Lily smiled as she saw Mikaela's name on the screen. "Look." She showed her phone to Eliza. "I will tell her about the current situation." Lily didn't wait for Eliza to respond as she directly answered Mikaela's call.

Smiling, Lily told Mikaela about the things that the attendant said. She also made sure to include the furious Eliza on the frame, silently letting Mikaela know that Lily had Eliza as a witness.

Not long after Lily started explaining the current situation, Eliza also joined in and told her about the incompetence of the people tasked to deliver the dress. As expected, Mikaela didn't accuse Lily of tampering the dress and just apologized. She said that she thought Pierre would personally deliver the dress as an apology for what happened the other night.

However, she was wrong. It seems that Pierre was really angered by Lily's words and he just asked his people to deliver it, causing the dress to get ruined. In the end, Mikaela also apologized for her husband's behavior and offered to personally send another dress for Lily.

This time, Lily refused. The trip from Dorf's castle to the Grand Ducal Palace would take at least fifteen minutes. Lily simply does not have enough time for that.

"Are you sure everything will be fine?" Eliza asked, wary and afraid that Pierre might be trying to do something to ruin Lily's name. Eliza knew that Pierre is not the type of person that would just give up easily. What if the man would decide to try and put a wedge between Lily and Leandro or Lily and the Grand Duke? "I can't believe my sister just apologized for her husband's childish behavior!" She grumbled.

While on the call, Eliza wanted to cuss Pierre's actions. She had to bit her lips as she tried her best not to do it in front of her sister. She knew that her sister is very sensitive when it comes to her husband. And Eliza is not planning to hurt her sister just because of that man's action.

"Love is love," Lily said. She started typing on her phone, asking Secretary Go to bring the dress that was kept safe in another room. Not long after, Secretary Go came inside the room with a few of Zhou Jingren's people that would help Lily prepare for the banquet.

"Ten minutes?" Eliza asked, confused. "You only needed ten minutes to prepare?"

"I don't like wearing thick makeup." Lily reasoned as she started arranging her hair into a French twist, leaving a few strands to frame her features. Tonight, Lily was planning to wear a simple black A-line gown that will not emphasize her stomach, with simple makeup and French twist. Nothing too complicated, but definitely elegant enough for the banquet.

After all, she was not here to impress people with her looks. Not long after, the two left the room. Meeting Qin Yuanfeng just a few doors away from Lily's room. The trio then made their way towards the stairs so they could join the banquet in the ballroom hall with the other noble families of Luxembourg.

"We have a special visitor tonight." Qin Yuanfeng whispered as he supported Lily on the stairs.

"Hm?" Lily lifted an eyebrow. In response, her brother eyed Eliza who was already a few steps away from them.

"Antone Harringfort just arrived a few minutes before you left your room." He murmured. This made Lily freeze for a few seconds.

"Like the one Zhou Jingren met?"

He nodded in response.

"Why would he attend? Was he invited? Is Zhou Jingren— "

"He is aware." Qin Yuanfeng said. "Me and Secretary Go will accompany you until he is done with his conversation with the Duke."

Lily's face turned serious. Zhou Jingren already told him that there is a possibility of Antone coming in here. This was after Zhou Jingren deduced the possible connection that the man had with Lily. At first, she thought it would be impossible for him to really come in here with Zhou Jingren around.

It would not make any sense at all. Was he trying to anger Zhou Jingren? Maybe he wanted to let Zhou Jingren know that he had access to Lily's blood relatives? But this would do nothing.

This would not intimidate Zhou Jingren at all!

"I believe he wanted to show Zhou Jingren how influential he is." Qin Yuanfeng's voice stirred her out of her stupor.

"Why would you say that?"

"He brought A few Princes with him. He wanted to show everyone how he hangs with influential people and even blatantly bring them to a banquet they were not invited to."
