Once they stepped inside, the party was already in full swing. Clusters of young people filled the dance floor. Natalie and Kelvin had already joined in, laughing as they danced.
Lilian and Jill, not being fans of dancing, grabbed some food and headed to the lounge area. Despite having lived two lives, Lilian’s love for good food remained unchanged.
Just then, a familiar figure walked toward them. Lilian chuckled the moment she saw her-Yulia.
Yulia approached with a smile. “Lilian, mind if I sit with you?” Without waiting for a reply, she took the open seat next to them.
Lilian gave a small, amused smile. “You’re already sitting down. Does it really matter if I mind p>
Truthfully, Lilian had to admit she had a certain level of respect for someone like Yulia. She could bow or rise as needed, never losing her smile no matter how strained things were. The phrase don’t hit a smiling face fit her perfectly. No matter how bad things got between you, she always managed to approach with that same cheerful façade-just like now.
But Yulia didn’t take offense. She smiled sweetly. “Lilian, this drink’s on me. For all the things I did wrong in the past, I hope you can forgive me.” She placed one of the two glasses in front of Lilian and downed the other herself in one shot.
Lilian eyed the crimson liquid in front of her, a faint, cold smile curling her lips. Under the dim lights, the wine gleamed seductively red-but even without lifting the glass, the faint scent of something tampered wafted from it.
She picked up the wine and gently swirled it, eyes resting calmly on the girl across from her. “Yulia, are you sure you want me to drink this p>
Yulia stiffened slightly at her question. “Of course. This is my apology. I was in the wrong before. Once you drink it, we can call it even p>
Lilian’s gaze darkened as she studied the glass, lifting it to her nose. Before she could say more, Jill leaned in urgently. “Lilian, don’t drink it! Who knows what this woman is up to p>
“It’s fine,” Lilian said with a serene smile, giving Jill a reassuring glance. “Ms. Yulia put so much thought into this. How could I possibly let her down?” Then, without hesitation, she downed the wine in one swift motion.
After swallowing, she even twirled the glass with a light flick of her wrist.
Yulia visibly relaxed once Lilian finished drinking. Her smile returned-polished and harmless. “Thank you, Lilian, for being willing to forgive me. I’ll head back to the ballroom first.” She stood and walked away, but the moment she turned, her expression twisted into a sinister sneer. Her eyes glinted with something far
darker.
Once she was gone, Jill turned to Lilian in a panic. “How could you drink that? She definitely has something up her sleeve p>
Lilian gave a soft laugh and waved off her concern. “It’s fine. Whatever she put in that wine won’t work on me. But I am curious to see what she’s planning this time.” Then she casually returned to eating from her

The party continued late into the night before gradually winding down. One by one, the guests departed. Jill offered to walk Lilian home, but Lilian declined. The game had only just begun-she wouldn’t miss it for
the world.
She strolled along the empty road at a lei pace. The Ginger family estate was in a wealthy
neighborhood, so few cars passed through. The street was deserted, trees rustling eerily on either side, adding a ghostly chill to the night air.
Suddenly, the screech of tires tore through the silence.
Lilian turned at the sound of a car barreling toward her, a mocking smile curving her lips. A sleek black vehicle screeched to a halt in front of her, and several men in black suits climbed out.
She stared at them, cold amusement flickering in her eyes. Well, they didn’t disappoint after all.
“Alright,” she said calmly. “Take me to your employer. Let’s see what tricks she has up her sleeve this time.” Then she climbed into the car without hesitation.
The men froze for a second, completely caught off guard. None of them had expected it to go this smoothly.
Hidden in the shadows, Unno watched the car drive away, unsure whether to report in. Ms. Lilian told me not to interfere, he thought, troubled. But what if something really happens? What would I tell him then?
