Samuel's unexpected appearance shocked Elsa. "What are you doing here?" she asked frantically. She didn't know he was also invited to the party.
However, instead of explaining, Samuel wordlessly pulled her away, his actions leaving Elsa both alarmed and disconcerted.
Elsa's anxiety surged. Furious at Samuel's abrupt and aggressive behavior, she also felt a rising fear of an altercation between Samuel and her brother or a potential scene in front of the numerous guests.
Amidst her concern, Elsa scanned the hall anxiously, hoping to locate familiar faces. To her surprise and relief, Jasper, Sebastian, Maria, and even Ella were nowhere to be found. Elsa wondered where they had gone. She glanced at her friends, who were enjoying the dance. Before she could check more, she was out of the hall.
