"Thankfully, thank you very much Mr. Damian. I am very grateful to you for saving Lucas," said Alyuura. Even though it wasn't confirmed that Lucas would wake up, at least Alyuura knew that Lucas was safe.

 "I just did what I could do," Damian retorted. "Mr. Lucas may be moved to his room to rest. But... how about your engagement, Miss?"

 Alyuura clutched her chin while thinking, she felt she had neither the authority nor the power to arrange this event. It felt very disrespectful for Alyuura to arrange the course of this event.

 But Alyuura was sure that if the engagement was canceled, there would be many people who would use this to corner and spread bad news about Lucas.

 If Alyuura appeared now in front of the badass invited guests out there, surely they would flock to ask Alyuura about the event. Someone has to represent both of them to say another reason that doesn't show that this engagement event failed.
