The Ladies' Gathering

"It seemed that you were accustomed to the young masters. That's why you're only calling them their names, Lady Arianne?" Lady Valia said.

When Arianne looked at the lady, she thinner her eyes for a second.

Who was this lady again? She thought.

Though she knew who she was. The lady was a Count's daughter. The Count was pretty stable in giving charities toward the empire

Though, what she learned from each noble's information that her father gave her was that they were all having certain facade

Behind those smiles hide a lot of secrets. That's why Arianne felt the same

She was continuously making her mask toward the ladies that she didn't know.

She might know some ladies after attending some gatherings in the past, but that's all

She wasn't close to them. However, because she's a Duke's daughter, the ladies she had invited needed to come and please her

That's the rule of the society they live. The low-ranking nobles should please the high-ranking ones
