Upon seeing Alexa Gatten sitting beside Madam Elijah, Cynthia Spinter furrowed her brows.
Maddy Spinter, having received a scolding, felt uneasy. She pouted and said, "Aren't you trying to get on her good side just for Digby Hart? I said I didn't want to come, but you forced me to. What's the point? Just to be a foil to others?"
"You..." Cynthia Spinter was shaking with rage. If it hadn't been for all the people present, she would have slapped her long ago.
Maddy Spinter took a bite of a pastry, expecting it to taste bad. To her surprise, her eyes widened with delight the next moment.
"This is too delicious."
Others discovered the same. Solene Moore took a bite, "Soft, sweet, and with a faint, lingering fragrance on the tip of the tongue. This is plum blossom cake, right?"
Having taken a bite, Lexi Benz suppressed the urge to comment.
Dallyn came in, carrying a tray. On it was a green porcelain bottle adorned with delicate plum blossoms.
