Chapter 216 The Meeting of Three People

Even though he rushed down to the first floor immediately, Shard was still a step behind.

When he arrived on the first floor, he just caught sight of Miss Beyas, looking unwilling, being dragged by a person wearing white gloves into a side hallway.

Ladies attending a banquet would usually wear intricate lace gloves of sophisticated design, whereas plain white gloves were more common among men.

"Has Miss Beyas run into trouble?"

With a frown, Shard promptly followed. Of course, before pushing the door open to enter that hallway, he first inquired of the banquet hall's waiter what that area was used for.

"Sir, that leads to the kitchen and also to some spare rooms provided for the chefs to rest in."

Chefs worthy of preparing dishes and refreshments for a banquet of such caliber indeed deserved their own restrooms.

Shard nodded and walked into the hallway. Though general guests were not allowed in this "staff area," Shard did not consider himself a general guest.
