The intense gazes made me uneasy, and I longed to find a secluded spot.
I hadn't anticipated being instantly recognized.
My eyes fell on the individual clutching Quincy's arm, then slowly traveled upward, revealing Kevin Stewart, a fellow student from my class.
"Kevin, she's my sister, don't make her nervous," Quincy said.
I barely registered Quincy's statement, my mind elsewhere.
However, the Shaw Family members appeared visibly distressed upon seeing my arrival in this state.
The Shaw Family had meticulously arranged the celebration, ensuring every detail was perfect.
This gathering was brimming with valuable connections and opportunities.
Mary was furious when she saw me in just a plain white tee and jean shorts.
"You claim Ruby is your sister, yet your surname is Shaw while hers is Lawson."
George and Maria rushed over upon witnessing this scene.
"Ruby, come with me," Maria insisted.
As Maria led me away, I realized they were mortified on my behalf.
