Delphine had barely chatted with Leah when the butler came knocking on the door, smiling kindly as he said, "Miss Delphine, the young master of the Cloud Family is asking for you downstairs."
Delphine had been deliberately avoiding the Yeager Family, so she stayed holed up in the top-floor room without going down. Hearing this, she hung up the phone, opened the door, and asked, "Why is someone from the Cloud Family here?"
"The old master is in good spirits today, so he invited the Cloud Family over to liven things up a bit," the butler replied, his face full of smiles.
Delphine instantly understood. The old master couldn't wait—even before the year ended, he wanted to finalize Ignatius Leclair and Melody Cloud's marriage arrangements. She curled her lips into a smile, nodded to the butler, and prepared to head downstairs. The old master likely wanted her present for this occasion.
