The people were gossiping when someone suddenly realized that Charlotte Allison wasn't there.
"Why didn't Mr. Allison come today?"
"I didn't see her either. I wanted to see her little boyfriend. I heard he's quite a handsome young man. To have mesmerized Mr. Allison like that, he must be really good-looking."
"In such a setting, no matter how much she likes him, she wouldn't bring him along."
"I just heard Hazel Allison say that Mr. Allison didn't come because she didn't receive an invitation."
"What? No invitation? Are you joking? Mr. Allison wouldn't have an invitation?"
"Hazel said it, so it shouldn't be wrong, right? She's Mr. Allison's cousin."
"Cousin, eh? She's clearly just a snake in the grass, stealing Mr. Allison's fiancé and even openly using public opinion to attack her. Can Mr. Allison still tolerate her? Mr. Allison was so good to her before, giving her resources to boost her, and in the end... tsk tsk tsk..."
