Upon hearing Selena's question, Candy nodded and said, "Dad received an invitation for us to come and play."
Seeing Selena frown in deep thought, Leia explained, "Madam Selena, the Soo family has invited many people this time, all the big and small noble families in the capital, anyone who is well-known and has a reputation has been invited."
Selena relaxed and instructed Leia, "After the banquet, you personally send them back."
Leia was taken aback, looking at Selena's eyes, she suddenly understood the reason why Selena had always kept her distance from others. Her special identity could potentially bring danger to innocent people. Therefore, Selena had not made any deep connections with anyone.
Thinking of this, Leia felt depressed, "Madam Selena, rest assured, I will safely send them back."
The Cooke sisters looked at each other, not understanding what was going on. But that did not stop them from being happy.
They had few friends here, so it was rare to see familiar faces. Nova happily said, "Selena, shall we go play together? The scenery at the Soo family is so beautiful. I just heard that there are blooming orchids there..."
Seeing the excited eyes of the two girls, Selena turned to Leia and said, "Send a message to the young master."
Then she stood up and was surrounded by the Cooke sisters as they left.
Seeing Selena leave with the twins, the young ladies present looked at each other, and their expressions became subtle.
While Selena was listening to gossip, these young ladies were also paying attention to her.
However, she was not easy to approach due to her usual demeanor. Those who were not familiar with her had mentally given her a high and unapproachable label.
Now seeing her being easily taken away by a pair of low-born twins, many of the noble ladies present couldn't help but have some different thoughts.
It seemed that Miss Turner was not as difficult to approach as the rumors had it.
If those two girls, whose status was inferior to theirs, could be friends with her, then they might also have a chance.
Following the route pointed out by the Soo family servants, the Cooke sisters led Selena to a secluded courtyard.
As soon as they entered, the sisters exclaimed, "It's so beautiful!"
Even Selena, who was used to beautiful scenery, was stunned for a moment at the sight before her.
The courtyard had no extra decoration, only a pond, a rainbow bridge over it, and a small building in the middle of the bridge. In front of the building, there were blooming orchids.
They came at the perfect time, as the orchids were in full bloom.
The Cooke sisters pulled Selena up onto the bridge.
One by one, the large as a plate orchids bloomed in front of them. In the tranquil night, the fragrance of orchids filled the air.
The Cooke sisters watched without blinking.
After a while, the orchids finally finished blooming, and a refreshing fruit scent wafted in the air. Nova's nose twitched, "What's that smell? It smells so good..."
"It's fruit wine brewed in the kitchen," a maid walked in from outside the garden with a tray in her hands, carrying a jade-white wine pot and four cups. She crouched down in front of the girls and said with a smile, "Miss, you can try it."
She also brought out a plate of beautiful green fruits, "If you're interested, you can try to make it themselves."
The Cooke sisters felt a bit uncomfortable with such humble service attitude, but they had already seen it in the hall with all the servants of the Soo family.
Nova, unable to resist the fruit fragrance, poured herself a cup and after taking a sip, her eyes narrowed in sweetness, "It's delicious!"
She then poured a cup for Selena, "Selena, do you want some?"
Selena remembered the embarrassment caused by the drunken incident last time and immediately shook her head, "I'm not thirsty."
The maid didn't receive any other instructions and respectfully left the garden.
The two girls from the Cooke family happily drank for a while and then curiously started making fruit juice themselves. Selena leaned her chin on her hand and admired the orchids in front of her, while Leia sat next to her, looking around with her big eyes.
Suddenly, a vibration came from Selena's bag.
