“Oh, isn’t that Miss Moore? I didn’t expect her to be so close with Miss Mitchell.
”
Playfully nudging Declan, Eliana said, “You once mentioned that Miss Moore keeps to herself, right?”
Declan snorted in response.
“She’s just social climbing, by any means necessary.
”
Eliana bit her lip and hesitated.
“What is it?” Declan asked, noting her expression.
“It’s not a big deal.
” With a slow shake of her head, Eliana shared, “I’ve just realized that nobody in this crowd knows about your breakup with Miss Moore.
”
Declan’s eyes narrowed as he looked towards Hannah, filled with icy resolve.
He thought to himself, “You won’t get far using my family’s name, Hannah!”
Eliana laid her delicate hand over Declan’s.
“Don’t stress.
Clear things up with Miss Moore later.
She’s reasonable.
”
Grasping Eliana’s hand, Declan felt his tension dissolve.
“Soon, Eliana, you’ll stand beside me as Mrs.
Edwards.

Thinking of the antique enthusiast back home, she lifted her paddle for the first time that evening.

“We have three million.
Going once…”
“Bid at three and a half million!”
“Three point eight million!”
Competing bids echoed throughout the hall.
“This vase is truly exquisite,” Eliana commented genuinely.
“My mom has a fondness for these.
She’ll be thrilled to hear I got to see one tonight.
