At 6.00PM, the dinner banquet that was being held at the Weiss Residence had commenced. Martha, who was the hostess, sat at the head of the table while five attractive youngsters sat next to her.
The servants were amazed at how good looking they were as all of them were uniquely gorgeous.
The thing that Martha was most interested in was how Richard and Elliot noticed that Arthur wasn’t his usual self and how they realized that he was being harmed.

“We know Arthur well. He would've definitely called personally to tell us that he is getting married,” Elliot said.
“I must have been confused and slow to catch on because of my age. If not for all of you, something disastrous would have happened within our family.” The thought of it still scared her as there was not much she could do if the Jennings Family were in control of her family due to her old age. She was also worried that something would happen to Arthur due. to the side effects of the poison..
“Elliot, Richard, cheers to both of you! Arthur raised his glass and said.
“No worries. The other tsomething happened to me, you and Richard cto my rescue too.” Elliot knew that they had each other's backs.
“This is what friends are for.” Richard laughed.
Anastasia, who was sitting opposite Sophia, smiled at her as she was happy that they were now sisters. Their husbands saw each other as brothers, after all.
“Sophia, I'd like to apologize to you for the words | said to you back then,” said Martha, apologizing to Sophia in front of everyone.

Arthur felt bad for everything that she had gone through and caressed the back of her head as he looked at her.
Sophia turned and looked at him too.
Noticing that, Martha was glad as after the whole episode, she finally got herself a future granddaughter-in-law who loved Arthur with all her heart.
After dinner ended, all of them left separately. Elliot brought Anastasia for a walk while Richard went back to his room to work. Meanwhile, Arthur brought Sophia out for a short drive.
Under the spotlight, the sight of roses in full bloom in the garden looked spectacular. The air was filled with their pleasant floral scent.
As Anastasia was admiring the flowers, she suddenly felt nauseous. She wasn’t sure why, but it could be the overpowering scent of the flowers.
