Arielle noted that Henrick was in high spirits and smiled demurely at him. “Actually, I received invitations for two events tonight. The first is for a banquet that Mr. Nightshire is also attending, and the other is for Yvette’s birthday party. However, the timing between them is rather tight, so…”
Without a second thought, Henrick replied, “Of course you should go to the banquet with Mr. Nightshire! Sannie, Dad knows that you’re still young and naive, but you should know how to differentiate important events from the less significant ones.”
“I know,” Arielle said, nodding.
“Isn’t Yvette engaged to Jordan, though? Besides, she sent the invitation to me, and if I don’t show up, I’m afraid that the Bakers might say…”
At that moment, Henrick was still unaware that the Bakers had decided to withdraw from the marriage arrangement with the Actonwards. Henrick’s expression thus looked rather uneasy.
