When Kiera Olsen put down her phone, she noticed that the first dance had ended.
Jake Horton and Isla Olsen had moved from the dance floor to her side and were once again surrounded by a crowd offering their congratulations.
Just then, someone approached her; it was Jake Horton's lackey, Arian O'neil, who wore a smug look on his face. He said to Kiera Olsen, "I know you're Dr. South, but even so, what of it? A mere researcher—if that's all you are, how could you compare to young Mr. Horton's fiancée? She has connections with Clance! In this circle, it's the connections that matter the most!"
Kiera Olsen: "..."
She ignored Arian O'neil and looked into the distance, where she saw Mrs. Allen pushing Rebecca Allen out, who met with Frankie Allen and Mr. Allen. The four of them appeared to be discussing something, and Rebecca seemed quite agitated.
Feeling somewhat concerned, she prepared to go over and see what was happening.
