The aforementioned Lady Hastings ball was packed with people. Exactly as Michael had predicted.
This was an event that London society had been waiting to attend. Despite the number of people, there were many people from other countries there. And not everyone received a formal invitation to join the party.
"I can't believe we're finally going to be able to announce our engagement!" Michael spoke excitedly.
"Yes, my son. And I hope this year goes by as quickly as possible." Roger said, letting out a sigh.
"Don't worry, Dad. Louisa and I have been behaving ourselves and will continue to do so. It will make our honeymoon even more special.
"Absolutely. And congratulations!"
Roger had already spoken to the hostess of the party about an announcement he would like to make, and two hours into the party, the time had finally come.
Louisa wore a beautiful beige and gold dress. Michael couldn't take his eyes off her. To him, she looked like an angel, but she was downright sexy.
