To everyone's surprise, instead of throwing Gerald and his wife out as anticipated, the two guards at the entrance courteously took their items and respectfully escorted them inside.
The crowd gradually came to their senses when Gerald and his wife's figures disappeared from view. Harold's face stiffened, his expression filled with astonishment. He and the rest of the Shepard family looked extremely displeased as they stood stiffly.
Others began to mock them upon seeing this scene.
"These people were just making fun of them, thinking they were superior. Now look, the bumpkins got in while they were left outside. Isn't that a slap in the face?"
"Exactly! With their sycophantic behavior, how do they have the audacity to look down on others? They must have done something to upset the Knight family. Otherwise, why would the Knight family shut them out on such a joyous day?"
"I think we should distance ourselves from them to avoid any trouble."
As soon as this was said, several guests standing close quickly stepped back as if afraid of catching some contagious disease. Even Briggs, who had been chatting warmly with Harold earlier, now avoided them.
When Harold glanced at him with a steely gaze, Briggs made a hasty excuse. "Oh, Harold, I just remembered I have some urgent business to attend to. Let's catch up another day."
With that, he turned and left, making it clear he was avoiding them like the plague.
