As Mila made her way through the corridors of Lady Arabella's estate, she couldn't help but marvel at the opulence that surrounded her.

The soft glow of flickering candles illuminated the grand hallways, casting intricate shadows across the ornate tapestries that adorned the walls.

As she entered the ballroom, Mila's breath caught in her throat at the sight before her.

The room was a whirlwind of activity, filled with the sound of laughter and music as guests mingled and danced beneath the glittering chandeliers.

She caught glimpses of familiar faces among the crowd, exchanging polite nods and smiles with those she had met before at Lady Amira's salon party. But there were also many new faces—strangers whose names she did not yet know.
