"Mom, let's go over there," Yvonne said while lifting a cup of peppermint tea from a nearby table.
"Alright, Yvonne. You must perform well! Outshine those country bumpkins!"
Diana felt a surge of confidence. After all, Yvonne was beautiful, talented, and graceful. While she might not
have been the best in Riverdale, she was definitely the center of attention at this banquet.
At that moment, Arthur had moved to another side of the room to discuss several newly developed projects with
sbusinessmen, leaving Priscilla surrounded by a group of women.
Seeing her chance, Diana led her daughter toward Priscilla. "Mrs. Savage, it's been a while!"

Priscilla's smile dimmed slightly, but her expression remained neutral. "It's you, Mrs. Henderson. Long tno
see. What have you been up to lately? | haven't seen you at any recent gatherings."
Diana froze for a moment. The reason Priscilla hadn't seen her was that she hadn't been invited to the circles
Priscilla was in.
She had only been invited once three years ago, the year Harold secured an order from the Savage family. Even
then, she hadn't been allowed in the group photos.
This matter still weighed on her mind. No one knew how much she longed to turn things around and make those
snobbish wealthy women look up to her.
However, the Henderson family's business had been stagnant for years. Now, her only hope was for Yvonne to
marry into the Savage family so that she could finally hold her head high.
However, the hint of discomfort quickly faded from her face, and she forced a smile.
"He he... I've been busy with Yvonne's studies. She has so many interests- learning piano and traditional painting
while keeping up with her core subjects. | also take her to art exhibitions and teach her flower arrangements and
tea art whenever I can.
"And she's just started at the First Academy, so there are many things that need my attention!"
She subtly mentioned that Yvonne was now at the First Academy, which was a point of pride for a middle-class
family like hers.
Priscilla raised her eyebrows in surprise. "Yvonne is at the First Academy now?" She then glanced at Yvonne and
nodded with satisfaction.
"The First Academy has excellent teaching resources. Those who get in have a good chance of attending Creybia

Yvonne smiled gracefully. "Mrs. Savage, hello! I'm Yvonne Henderson. It's a pleasure to meet you!
"I often hear my mother speak of you, saying you are the most elegant and graceful person she's met in this
circle. Now that I've met you, | can tell she was right. Even if | didn't know you before, | can still recognize you
since you stand out in a crowd."
Priscilla's smile brightened considerably at this compliment. "Ha ha ha. You're such a charming child. "So you're
studying piano now? Have you taken any exams?"
"| took the Grade 10 exam and passed. | started learning late, so | can't compare to professionals, but | practice
hard every day!"
Yvonne spoke confidently, not shy about her shortcomings, which only endeared her more to Priscilla.
Priscilla nodded and asked, "Have you studied traditional painting then?"
