Chapter 352: Ball
A burst of applause and cheers suddenly came from the entrance of the hall.
Matthew immediately looked over.
The visitors were naturally Lady Alena and her adopted daughter, Judy.
Matthew looked at them curiously.
Lady Alena was indeed very elegant. Her dress was not something that could be seen in a remote place like Rolling Stone Town. She was wearing a long, white, tight-fitting dress. The dress was divided into nine layers, and the silver thread on each layer was inlaid with pearls.
The curves formed by the pearls formed a perfect ratio between her waist and hips. Further up, there was a pile of colourful feathers stuck to her chest, which made her skin even fairer and her temperament even more graceful.
She was also wearing a large ladys sunhat. The ribbon hanging from the brim of the hat was also full of pearls.
Lady Alena walked over.
She greeted the person next to her warmly.
Everyone sincerely praised her.
As for her adopted daughter, Judy, she was clearly more beautiful, but her temperament was completely suppressed by her mother, and she did not receive more attention from the public.
During this period, there was a small interlude.
Perhaps he wanted to grab everyones attention. The kitten in Judys arms became restless.
Judy moved closer to Lady Alena and said obediently,
Mommy, this kitten has been trying to get close to you. He seems to like you very much.
Is that so?
Ms. Alena took the cat from Judys arms with a smile.
Do you want to follow me? Little cutie? Alena asked with a smile.
The little black cat nodded frantically.
Then, from now on, you are my cat. You cant go out and do whatever you want with other kittens.
Alena smiled and patted the little black cats head.
Matthew nodded hesitantly. Perhaps.
After Lady Alena entered, the atmosphere became even more lively.
The previous dance was just a warm-up. After the arrival of the most important guest, the ball officially began.
Rheagar led Alena and introduced her to a few people in Rolling Stone Town.
Matthew and Sif were naturally among them.
Alena politely shook hands with them.
However, Matthew could clearly feel that there was a kind of high and mighty reserve and unintentional contempt in that kind of politeness.
This greatly reduced Matthews impression of Alena.
On the other hand, her adopted daughter, Judy, did not put on any airs. She greeted Matthew very vivaciously and seemed to have a good impression of Matthew.
Matthew composed himself and prepared to follow Rheagars instructions to find a breakthrough from Judy and figure out the true purpose of the visitors from Deep Blue Harbor.
The greetings and introductions soon ended.
As the music changed.
Everyone came to the dance floor.
Rheagar introduced Lady Alenas noble background to everyone with great magnanimity, then smiled and said,
I remember that according to the custom of Deep Blue Harbor, the first dance is for the lady to choose a male partner, and the chosen male partner cannot refuse. Alena, youll be the first to choose, then Judy. You dont have to be so formal. Just treat this place as Deep Blue Harbor. You can choose all the men in Rolling Stone Town.
As he spoke, he could not help but straighten his chest.
Today, Rheagar was also dressed in fancy clothes. He had some oil on his head, and his hair was black and shiny. There were a few strands of unknown animal fur on his chest, which looked a little similar to the clothes of Lady Alena.
Is that so? I thought we would follow the rules of your Rolling Stone Town.
Oh, Rheagar, youre so considerate.
Lady Alena smiled and said,
But if I dont choose you for the first dance, youll be sad, right?
