The upcoming birthday banquet was eagerly awaited by the Shields, symbolizing the height of their social season. It united the capital's elite in a magnificent showcase of luxury and status.
Thus, everyone was on their best behavior.
Suzanna sat at her dressing table, wearing a Chanel haute couture gown for the evening.
The snow-white skirt draped around her, evoking the aura of a stunning and graceful princess, harmonized flawlessly with her regal demeanor.
Yet, a trace of concern lingered in her eyes:
"Mom, Gary has been kneeling in the altar for a day and a night. Please, forgive him."
Christina, Suzanna's mother, was also worried.
Gary, the youngest and most rebellious of her five sons, was also the most spirited.
Despite not being academically inclined, she had already witnessed her other sons succeeding in their careers, which tempered her expectations for Gary. Although he had always joked around with her, he seemed to have changed overnight.
He remained quiet and reserved, acting strangely towards Suzanna.
She frowned and instructed the maid in a chilly tone, "Fetch Gary from his room to entertain the guests."
"We can't let it seem like the Shields has lost its manners," she insisted.
Suzanna smiled and nestled into Christina's arms. "Mom," she said, "you're the greatest
mother ever."
Christina hugged Suzanna back.
Her words left her feeling somewhat perplexed.
A flash of Nanny's cold eyes crossed her mind: Was she really a good mother?
"Suzie, has Melody arrived?"

Christina suddenly asked.

Everyone in the Shields knew that even Poppy would attend Nanny's birthday banquet.
As Shields, Melody must obey Poppy's authority and return to the family, regardless of her willingness.
Upon hearing this, Suzanna's eyes were cold.
Their faces flushed crimson as she weakly clutched her chest, struggling for breath. "Mom, Mel... Mel should..."
Christina quickly rushed to her side, frantically summoning the family doctor to attend to her.
"I'm sorry, Suzie, it's my fault. I brought up Melody, and suddenly you're experiencing palpitations," she confessed with guilt. "If she sees her, I'm afraid..."
Christina's demeanor changed as she turned to give brief instructions to the servants.
In the villa garden, the crowd stirred as a prestigious Bugatti Veyron thundered toward the gate of the Shield Residence.
Melody emerged from the car, her elegant figure and cold, proud, almond-shaped eyes exuding grace. There was a hint of soul-stirring charm about her as she stood as elegant and aloof as a red rose in the frost.
She was dressed in a black cocktail dress, her lengthy hair styled into voluminous waves, while her bright red lips were slightly pursed. She radiated a languid yet glamorous presence, like a proud black cat sauntering into the silent night. As she approached the entrance, the security guard stopped her.
"Stop! Who are you? Do you have an invitation?
"This is the Shields' banquet; not just anyone can enter."
The security guard cast a glance at Bernard, the driver of the Bugatti Veyron.
To him, Melody was merely a plaything of the rich and powerful.
Melody raised an eyebrow; she recognized this security guard.
He was Fabio, Mrs. Swenson's nephew, introduced into the Shields family, who habitually looked down on others.

Melody's lovely eyes shifted, her sweet smile unwavering. "Oh, how presumptuous. Have you just acknowledged Thor as your master?" Fabio was stunned.
Why did this voice sound so familiar?
But that person will never set foot in the Shields again.
"Did you just call me a dog?"
A hint of malice flashed in Fabio's eyes. He was a ruffian who prioritized his reputation above all.
"How quaint. A single-celled organism grasping human speech? How utterly absurd."
"How rare."Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Melody languidly lifted her hand. She delicately played with the strands of hair cascading by her cheek; her almond eyes were chillingly icy.
This time, Fabio met Melody's gaze.
He then took a sharp breath. "Are you Melody?"
"How is that possible? Melody is just an ugly duckling, a weakling."
"Your words are so venomous... it can't be true!"
Melody's eyebrows knit slightly as she slowly unveiled the small teardrop mole beneath her left eye.
Her seductive yet icy demeanor demanded attention. She had the same face as Melody but appeared more beautiful and bold.
Fabio's mouth hung open as if he were swallowing a goose egg.
In a habit of scolding Melody, he exclaimed, "How dare you come to the Shields!"
"Do you
dare to insult me? Do you even know who I am?" Fabio bellowed.
"Tsk, not only will I insult you to your face, but if you're deaf, I'll gladly engrave it on your tombstone for free!"
