Eltham and Queen had a lot to discuss.

Stepping out of the study, Brittany felt as if all her energy had been sapped in an instant. Her legs wobbled a bit, and she

instinctively reached out to the wall for support, dreading showing any sign of weakness.

After finally regathering her strength, Brittany made her way to the restroom.

The restroom wasn't crowded. As Brittany entered a stall and was just about to sit down, she heard a group of women walk in.

"Did you see that, Miss Piper Walker? Brittany was blatantly flirting with Prince Eltham, holding hands in front of everyone. Has she

no shame?"

"I heard Brittany's been married before and even has a son. How could the royal family ever accept such a woman?"

"Miss Walker, weren't you and Eltham quite close before? There was even talk of marriage. How did ite to this?"

The socialite at the center of the group calmly took out her lipstick to touch up her makeup.

A follower behind her scoffed, "Miss Walker is set to inherit her family's empire. How could she possibly settle for Eltham? She's no

one's canary!"

"Miss Walker truly is a role model for the modern woman. Career is what matters most!"

"Would Brittany have gotten anywhere without clinging to men?"

The group went on, praising one and putting down the other.

The mention of Miss Walker sparked an image in Brittany's mind of a rebellious, untamed face.

It was rumored that years ago, Eltham had been closely involved with a young lady from a prestigious family.

They had grown up together, childhood friends, and many thought they would end up together. Unexpectedly, Eltham ended up in

an arranged marriage with the Lte family.

That childhood friend was Piper, renowned as Craneville's most eligible bachelorette, born into privilege and celebrated for her

exceptional abilities.

Before returning to the Ltes, Brittany had once crossed paths with Piper.

The chatter continued until Piper herself had had enough.

"Alright, that's enough. Ms. Lte is not someone to be trifled with. If you embarrass her at tonight's grand event, be prepared

for consequences," Piper warned, and the group left.

Brittany emerged from the stall, touched up her makeup, adjusted her dress, and slowly walked out of the restroom.

Eltham had already gone downstairs.

He was slightly worried not seeing Brittany and was about to go look for her when Piper stopped him: "Eltham."

"Piper," Eltham greeted her with a smile. "Are you here alone? Didn't your brothere?"

"He'll arrive later."

Piper was the epitof a Craneville beauty, with her blond hair and eyes as deep as the ocean.

Unfortunately for her, Eltham's heart leaned towards someone else.

"I heard Ms. Lte is here too. Aren't you going to introduce us?" Piper's voice wavered slightly at the mention of Ms. Lte.

Eltham simply smiled, his gaze finding Brittany as she descended the stairs.

"Here shees."

Brittany slowly approached, and as soon as she appeared, Eltham’s attention was entirely on her.

Piper's lips twitched into a tight smile, quickly fading back to neutrality.

"Bri, this is Piper, of the Walker family," Eltham introduced.

Brittany nodded towards Piper, "Miss Walker."

Piper barely acknowledged Brittany.

A woman who, after decades abroad, had climbed her way to her current position through men's support, especially through Yuri's

connections, and had caught the queen's eye!

Piper greeted her with feigned warmth, "Ms. Lte, a pleasure to meet you."

Brittany responded with a smile, "I've heard Miss Walker is a powerhouse in the business world. It's an honor to meet you."

Piper, though a woman, had made significant achievements in her family's business. Being chosen as the successor in a male-

dominated environment spoke volumes of her capabilities.

Piper lifted her chin slightly, appreciating Brittany's acknowledgment.

Many turned their eyes to them, whispering at the sight of Eltham, Piper, and Brittany together.

Eltham and Piper's conversation primarily revolved around Craneville. Brittany, familiar with Craneville but not wanting to engage,

wished to leave early.

Piper mistook Brittany's disinterest for ignorance about Craneville affairs, her look of disdain unmistakable.
