In the Legacy Hotel, Cathryn scrolled through the nastyments online with growing irritation.


    Kale knocked on the door. "Miss Bernard, it''s almost time."


    "Come in," Cathryn answered.


    Kale stepped inside and saw Cathryn dressed in an off-shoulder evening gown. She looked elegant and regal, embodying the image of a perfect socialite.


    Despite her refined upbringing, Cathryn had been shielded from the harshness of the outside world due to her fragile health. Facing such a violent onught from the inte, she could barely hold herself together. "Where''s Drake? I want to see him."


    "Mr. Lowe is still changing and not avable right now."


    Cathryn shoved her phone toward him, the screen lit up with those venomousments. "He''d better have an exnation for this. Aren''t you even trying to do PR work?"


    Back when Debra was ndered online, Marion immediately had a PR team clean it up. But now, Drake was doing nothing for her.


    Kale nced at the phone and said, "Don''t worry, Miss Bernard. I''ll deliver your message to him. But in ten minutes, you need to go downstairs to greet the guests. Most of them are business partners who used to work with your family." He turned and left the room. Cathryn stared at thements with growing anxiety.


    She was afraid Marion would think ill of her when he saw them.


    In his suites, Drake changed his clothes and did his hair.


    Kale came in and reported, "Boss, Miss Bernard doesn''t seem very happy."


    "How so?"


    "The inte''s flooded with insults. Everyone''s calling her a homewrecker."
