Sloane stood beside Madam Mathilda, forced to exchange pleasantries with an endless stream of unfamiliar
faces. She wore a polite smile, but deep down, she was counting the minutes until this tiresbanquet would
end.
If it hadn’t been for Samantha and Adrian both fighting for a spot at this event, she never would've accepted
Madam Mathilda’s invitation. In her opinion, wasting tlistening to strangers babble behind fake smiles was
far less productive than staying hto refine a few more medicinal pills.
When Madam Mathilda becpreoccupied with chatting up a new group, Sloane quietly slipped away.
Her looks, combined with her status as Lucas'’s fiancée, naturally drew attention wherever she went. But she
paid it no mind and helped herself to a few pastries before heading to a quiet corner to enjoy them in peace.

“Hi, Sloane...” the girl greeted, only to suddenly stumble in her high heels. She flailed forward with an
exaggerated yelp, “Look out!”
It all happened in a flash-the girl lunging straight at Sloane like she'd lost her balance.
But Sloane calmly stepped back and pivoted smoothly to the side. The movement was fluid as water, her plate of
desserts completely undisturbed-she didn’t even drop a single crumb.
“Aahhh!” ca shriek.
The girl in the white dress crashed headfirst into a table loaded with wine bottles. With a loud crash, glasses
shattered on the floor, and red wine splattered across the carpet like blood. A pungent scent filled the air as the
expensive liquor soaked her dress and scattered broken glass everywhere.
Guests nearby jumped back with startled cries.
The girl was sprawled across the table, her hair a mess, her face humiliated. Her dress was drenched in wine,
speckled with shards of glass. She struggled to lift her head, glaring at Sloane with hatred and disbelief.
Because she knew-she had planned this fall.
She'd calculated everything-the angle, the force, the distance. Even if Sloane dodged, she

There was no one else close enough-just her and Sloane. Who else could it have been?
Sloane stood a short distance away, calm and collected, as if the scene before her had nothing to do with her.
She lifted a brow and casually remarked, “What happened? You should really watch your step.”
“You-“The girl trembled with fury, raising a trembling finger to point at Sloane. She opened her mouth to shout,
“It was her-!"
But just then, the Houston family’s butler arrived with impeccable timing, cutting her off. “Are you alright, miss?”
A team of servants swiftly surrounded the girl, lifting her to her feet and ushering her away from the scene.
Meanwhile, others cleaned the mess, restoring the banquet hall to its pristine state. In moments, it was as if
nothing had happened at all.
Sloane watched with a trace of contempt in her eyes. Such cheap tricks weren't even worth responding to.
After satisfying her sweet tooth, she slipped out to the garden for sair.
The garden was nearly empty-most guests were indoors, mingling and networking. The cool air and quiet
surroundings offered a rare moment of peace.
Sloane strolled down the garden path, letting the night air clear her mind-until a large figure suddenly emerged
from the hedges and blocked her way.
The man’s eyes were sunken, his cheeks flushed with an unnatural hue. His entire demeanor reeked of
indulgence and vulgar intent. His lecherous gaze roved over Sloane's body, and he grinned, crooked and slimy
“Well, well. Isn't this the Rivers family’s little beauty? What's a girl like you doing out here all
