Chapter 272: Relaxing with Coffee

After following Uncle, we found ourselves at the door of the parlor. He opened the door, and we saw Sophia and Aunt Dorothy in their beautiful dresses sitting on their couches. By the way, Cousin Mark was tending the guests with Uncle. 

Of course, Sophia wore the most impressive gown since she was the star of the night. As Aunt Dorothy wore a white dress, my fiancee was clad in a royal blue ball gown.

Her gown was crafted with intricate details and made out of the silk of Queen Evil Tarantula. It was ornate with clear gems that shone once hit by light. Tonight, Sophia was the brightest star among the gems in this jewelry box. 

"Good evening, everyone." As we walked in, Mother greeted them. "And happy birthday to you, Sophia." 

"Thank you, Aunt Mylene," Sophia responded with a smile. 

"There are so many guests I have to receive at the hall," Uncle intoned. "So I am afraid I cannot join you here." 

"Go ahead, dear."
