Emma stood hesitantly in front of her closet, pondering what to wear. If it wasn't for the fact that Mr. Carter Sr. had asked her to attend the event, she would have never stepped foot in Carter Estate again.

"Good, as long as you can come, Grandpa is already very satisfied, be careful on the road!" Receiving such a positive answer from Emma, Mr. Carter Sr. secretly sighed with relief and hung up the phone with joy.

Originally, Emma could have quietly blended in, but when Olivia opened her mouth, the eyes of the crowd turned to her.
"Had a little situation, so I'm just getting here now." Emma explained, pulling at the corner of her mouth in slight embarrassment.
