Amidst the crowd of important figures, Matthew's attire stood out conspicuously, completely out of place.
Witnessing Matthew being mocked, Eleanor, for once, came to his defense. "Mind your own business! Instead of making fun of others, why don't you do something about your sagging skin? Look at all those wrinkles!"
After retorting, she suddenly remembered something and whispered to Matthew. "You didn't actually sneak in here, did you?"
Matthew simply rolled his eyes in response. Do I appear that pathetic to you? I'm wearing branded clothing from head to toe, worth at least a thousand bucks.
Before long, Mara returned with a guard responsible for maintaining order at the banquet. "This is the guy. I suspect he's not on the guest list. You should thoroughly check him."
"Well, let's see who dares to cause trouble!"
Delman Dupont, the new captain of the guards after the dismissal of the former captain, hurried over upon hearing about a suspected intruder at the banquet. Eager to demonstrate his authority, he made his way through the crowd, secretly vowing to teach the troublemaker a lesson.
"Sir, could you please—" He was about to ask the plain-looking, rustic young man in front of him for his invitation when their eyes met, and Delman suddenly felt weak in the knees, as if an electric current surged through his body, causing him to tremble involuntarily.
Matthew, chewing his food, casually asked, "Yes?"
Delman's serious expression instantly transformed into an enthusiastic smile.
The intentions of the several socialites who intercepted Delman were also apparent. They wanted him to thoroughly inspect Matthew and Eleanor. Even if they did have invitations, they would be utterly humiliated after the inspection.
When Delman heard the way they addressed him, he instantly turned grim. A mere guard?
"Ladies, you are all distinguished figures. Let's all take a step back and let it go. Otherwise, you will only embarrass yourselves in the end."
However, these women were accustomed to being willful and capricious. They certainly wouldn't give up easily if they couldn't make Eleanor pay a price that day.
"We'll be embarrassed? What a joke! We are here to attend His Highness' banquet, not to take risks. If you don't thoroughly check their identities today, we will leave immediately. If Prince Gadel gets upset, let's see how you explain yourselves!"
