“Lily… What’s wrong?”
Lily Gray was holding the doorknob when a concerned greeting suddenly came from the crowd.
Immediately after, Mrs. Brown, Gloria Denham, and the hotel manager emerged from the crowd.
Seeing the banquet host, someone in the crowd shouted excitedly.
“Mrs. Brown, Miss Sierra Hammond is in there, and so is Mr. Lucas… You can tell from the noise that something has happened… Miss Gray probably wants to go in and ‘catch the adulterers.’ Mrs. Brown, you’re hosting the banquet, quickly find someone to help Miss Gray open the door!”
Gloria Denham showed a hint of difficulty on her face as if she was genuinely worried for Lily Gray. “Lily… I’ll find someone to break the door open for you right away. You’ll know what’s going on as soon as the door is open. Don’t worry…”
Lily Gray and Gloria Denham were not close at all. Even though they had a conversation in the makeup room earlier, their relationship didn’t progress to where Gloria would dare to offend Aidan Lucas for her.
If the person inside was really Mr. Lucas, Gloria’s actions would undoubtedly add fuel to the fire.
But Lily Gray couldn’t care less. She didn’t bother with Gloria’s intentions and stood by, biting her lower lip, without responding or saying anything more.
Her stubborn gaze fell on the doorknob, waiting for Gloria to find someone to open the door.
No matter what was inside, she had to see it for herself.
If it was a misunderstanding, she would apologize to Aidan Lucas.
But if the person inside was truly Aidan Lucas… Thinking of that scene, Lily Gray could only feel her heart almost stopped beating. She could only press her hand against her chest to alleviate the pain.
The key was quickly brought over.
Gloria Denham received the key and was about to open the door when she noticed the pain in Lily Gray’s eyes. She suddenly changed her mind and shoved the key into Lily’s hand.
“Here, Lily, the key is here… Whatever the situation inside, you go see for yourself… The rest of us shouldn’t intrude, we’d better not look…”
After saying this, Gloria deliberately took a step back to show her stance.
Seeing that Mrs. Brown, the banquet host, had taken a step back, the others were even more embarrassed to step forward.
However, thinking that Lily Gray might go inside after the door was opened and not let them see the situation, they suddenly felt disappointed.
Feeling the cold key stuffed into her palm, Lily Gray looked down for a moment in a daze.
Go open the door, stop running away, and stop deceiving yourself.
The voice in her heart called out to her.
Then, she inserted the key into the keyhole, and with a “click,” the lock opened.
“Young Lady…”
As the door cracked open, Sebastian Lucas VII blocked the way.
“Young Lady, Mr. Lucas said… without his permission, no one can enter. If you do this, Mr. Lucas might…”
Before Sebastian could finish, the charming voice of Sierra Hammond floated out from the narrow gap of the door.
Lily Gray’s face changed, and she looked at Sebastian with determined fierceness in her eyes.
Sebastian knew he couldn’t stop her, so he reluctantly moved aside.
Lily Gray trembled as she gripped the doorknob, but before she could apply any force, the door was suddenly pushed open with great force.
A righteous voice from Gloria Denham rang out, “No, 1 can’t swallow my anger! Lily, I’ll go in with you. Don’t be afraid!”
Originally standing behind her, Mrs. Brown Gloria Denham had somehow taken a step ahead and forced the door open.
The lounge door, which had only revealed a small crack earlier, was now fully open.
Everyone outside could see the situation inside clearly.
There were chairs, sofas, and tables knocked over in disarray… Alongside the table were fruit plates, wine glasses, and men and women’s clothing scattered all over the floor.
It looked like the situation inside was quite intense!
