Chapitre 83: Inheritance

If I'm not mistaken, this old man seems to be calling my name?

My mouth fell open slightly as I looked at the scene in confusion. Right after, the old man looked straight at me and walked towards me. When he reached me, he stopped and took off his hat to extend his greetings.

"Miss Luna, I am your mother's former housekeeper, Payne." The silver-haired old man bowed and extended a hand.

I was surprised to feel everyone's eyes on me. I shook his hand and whispered, "My mother? What's going on?"

If the main character of this ball is me, it's very likely that it's some key information my mother left for me!

"Miss Luna, you'll find out soon enough." Payne slowly led me to the stage. He looked at the pairs of wide eyes below the stage, it turned out that the guests were as surprised and confused as I was.

But for some reason I felt a touch of kinship from Payne, my instincts told me he wasn't going to harm me.
