Lucinda still didnât say anything.
She looked around the crowd expectantly.
Some of the young men present were tempted to dance with Dwayneâs beautiful date, but they gave up because they were afraid that theyâd make a fool of themselves because they believed that Lucinda was wearing the fake.
Two minutes later, no one stepped forward to dance with Lucinda.
Vivien smiled so smugly.
She was about to mock Lucinda some more when a deep, masculine voice suddenly sounded from behind the crowd.
âMiss Ross, care for a dance?â
The crowd looked in the direction of the voice and were stunned.
It was none other than Nathaniel, who had returned to the banquet hall just now, staring at Lucinda intently.

In fact, he never left.
He just hid in a quiet corner for a while.
He didnât want to participate in the small battle between the two women.
However, since Eleanor had finished dancing without a hitch, it meant that Lucindaâs dress had to be the fake.
If he could be her dance partner, he could quietly catch any wire that broke during the dance so that she wouldnât make a fool of herself.
He thought he was doing it out of kindness, but someone didnât think so.
âNate?â
âBrother!â
Eleanor and Vivien cried out simultaneously.
Vivien was worked up.
âWhy the hell are you helping her? Youâre Eleanorâs fiance! You didnât help Eleanor, but youâre willing to help this woman? What will others think of Eleanor? Think about your fiancee!â

Eleanorâs eyes welled up with tears, but she didnât complain.
She just looked at him pitifully, but in fact, she was gnashing her teeth with hatred on the inside.
If Lucinda really agreed, Eleanor would be so humiliated!
He had invited Lucinda to dance with him even though it would embarrass him.
But he didnât invite Eleanorâhis own fiancee.
Why?!
The hatred that had been brewing in Eleanorâs heart suddenly reached the peak.
Ignoring the two girlsâ complaints, Nathaniel looked at Lucinda again, hinting at her to accept his invitation.
Lucinda cast a sidelong glance at him and walked straight to the stage.
