Ashley said expressionlessly: “A figure with great influence in the werewolf world who can speak on behalf of the royal family, and also my ideal mentor.”
Clara was stunned: “That impressive?”
Speaking of this, she hesitated somewhat: “For such an impressive figure to attend that old woman’s birthday celebration, is it because they have a good relationship?”
“No.” Ashley’s tone was cold: “Theyre barely acquainted at best.”
In her view, Aurora had met Mark through Milo.
Mark’s appearance today was very likely thanks to Milo’s influence.
van and Ethan were standing not far from Ashley. Evan had been quietly swirling his wine glass, but after hearing their conversation, he paused: “Aurora is aving a banquet too?”
than explained: “Oh, today is also her grandmother’s birthday. They’re holding their banquet on the same day as this one, and the guest lists overlap ignificantly. Because of Ferris and Ashley’s relationship, basically all the overlapping guests are here instead.”
He hadn’t known about this beforehand.
le only found out after overhearing it at the banquet hall just now.
van realized: “So that means Aurora’s side basically has hardly anyone there now?”
than shrugged: “Yeah. I heard three–quarters of the tables are empty.”
van’s expression changed slightly, and he suddenly stood up.
eeing this, Ethan was startled: “What’s wrong?”
van said: “I need to make a phone call.”
fter speaking, without waiting for Ethan’s response, he quickly turned and left.
eeing Evan leave hurriedly, both Ashley and Clara looked over.
Ashley asked: “Where did Evan go?”

Grandmother was an old noble who had seen countless treasures, yet even she couldn’t help but whisper in admiration: “This is the legendary Moonlight Tear… how did you manage to find it?”
Adrian smiled faintly: “Thanks to some old friends help. It’s my personal token of gratitude. You cared for me when I was young–I’ve always remembered that.”
Ashley bit her lip tightly and clicked on the second video. When she saw the footage, she could barely suppress her rage!
The gift Ferris gave to that old woman was exactly the incense burner and bracelet he had bid on at the auction!
So it hadn’t been a gift for her after all!
Ashley felt her breathing tighten, as if someone had pressed claws against her chest.
After a while, seeing that Evan still hadn’t returned, she went to ask Ethan: “Why isn’t Evan back yet?”
Ethan: “Let me check.”
Soon, Ethan put down his phone and said: “Evan said he has something urgent and left early. He asked me to apologize to you.”
“Since he has urgent business, that’s understandable.” Ashley asked with concern: “Did he say what kind of urgent matter?”
“He didn’t mention that.”
Ethan hadn’t paid much attention initially, but somehow he suddenly remembered something and said: “Could it be related to that person Evan likes?”
Hearing this, Ashley’s smile froze, her tone becoming somewhat cooler: “When did he start liking someone?”
