Chapter 259:
Across the room, Mariana had already caught sight of them. Given how much buzz surrounded Vince and Rosanna lately, she couldn’t help but take an interest. Turning to the person beside her, Mariana smiled and teased, “Not bad, right? The Ward family never disappoints when it comes to taste.” The woman next to her nodded stiffly, remaining silent. Her gaze flickered toward Vince, and a faint blush slowly spread across her face as she clenched her hands, desperately trying to conceal the emotions she couldn’t shake.
Before long, Vince led Rosanna over to Mariana. After exchanging a few pleasantries, it became clear to Rosanna that Mariana genuinely enjoyed their conversation, a sign that she had made a strong first impression. Still, Rosanna stayed cautious. She knew better than to appear overly eager—such eagerness could easily backfire in circles like these. Following Vince’s lead, she moved through the crowd, exchanging greetings with other influential guests, all the while keeping an eye out for another opportunity to reconnect with Mariana.
Just then, someone stepped onto the stage, and the sound of live music filled the hall, shifting the atmosphere. A sparkle lit up in Rosanna’s eyes as she eagerly volunteered to sing. The moment her soft, melodic voice filled the room, she captivated the audience and quickly earned their admiration.
A faint smile tugged at the corner of Vince’s mouth as he watched her shine. Around them, guests murmured praises for Rosanna, and even Mariana’s expression brightened with genuine delight.
It was clear now that some things simply had to be experienced firsthand to be truly appreciated.
As Rosanna gracefully stepped down from the stage, Mariana welcomed her with warm applause and offered sincere praise, a clear sign that Rosanna was making her mark among the elite.
“Miss Morgan, your voice is enchanting. You’re every bit as talented as you are graceful p>

Rosanna responded with a modest smile, her tone gentle and composed. “Miss Cooper, you flatter me. It’s truly an honor to earn your praise p>
This time, Mariana took the initiative to chat with Rosanna for a long while. The two conversed happily, as if they were old friends.
Some nearby guests couldn’t help teasing Vince about his impeccable taste and speculating on how many socialites in Wront must be heartbroken now that he was taken.
“It’s only natural they get jealous when they see Rosanna. After all, she’s perfect,” Mariana teased, flashing Vince a playful glance and pretending to scold him for not introducing Rosanna sooner.
Rosanna appeared quiet and reserved at first glance, but beneath her modest exterior, she expertly guided the conversation. She showered Mariana with compliments about her flawless style and sharp wit, making sure to leave Mariana visibly delighted.
Vince, quietly observing them, couldn’t help but feel a little surprised. Mariana, who was famous for her fiery and unpredictable temper as the youngest daughter of the Cooper family’s head, Kolton Cooper, seemed to genuinely enjoy Rosanna’s company.
This turn of events worked perfectly in the Ward family’s favor.
Rosanna’s smile grew warmer as she and Mariana clasped hands, a silent but powerful gesture sealing their newfound bond in front of Wront’s high society.
Everything was unfolding even better than they had hoped.
