At that moment, upon hearing what Mrs. Bushman just said, Tyler’s gaze narrowed. The silence in the room was cold and heavy like thick fog, wrapping tightly around everyone’s throats. Slowly, he turned his eyes toward Mrs. Bushman, his grip still locked tightly around her husband’s collar, his fingers curled like iron hooks.

“Then speak,” Tyler said, his voice low and commanding, almost a whisper—but more terrifying than a scream.

Mrs. Bushman’s lips quivered. Her hands trembled where they clutched her dress, her knuckles turning pale. She took a deep breath, but it faltered halfway. Her eyes darted to her husband, still suspended mid-air by Tyler’s unyielding arm, then down to her son sprawled unconscious on the floor, jaw cracked and blood pooling beneath his head.

With a voice that broke in places, she finally said, “It… it was because of Princess Naomi.”

Tyler’s expression didn’t change, but his stare burned hotter. Mrs. Bushman swallowed hard and continued, each word falling out

    So instead of unleashing the verbal attack she had been preparing, Princess Naomi simply pressed her lips together into a thin, tight line and kept her mouth firmly shut, though her eyes continued to flash with barely contained anger and disapproval every time they landed on Tyler standing there next to her sister looking completely unbothered by all the tension swirling around him.She forced herself to take a deep breath and maintain her cool exterior, even though inside she was seething with frustration about the entire situation and already planning how she was going to handle this problem with her sister's poor choice in companions once they were away from all these watching eyes.But while Princess Naomi was struggling to contain her emotions and keep herself from saying something she might regret later, Nathaniel Jr. was experiencing something completely different as he stood there surrounded by congratulations and well-wishes from the other guests.His entire posture had chang

    The words hung in the air for just a moment as everyone processed what Princess Naomi had just publicly declared, and then suddenly the entire crowd erupted into enthusiastic applause and congratulations.People started clapping their hands together, creating a wave of sound that echoed off the building walls, while voices called out words of praise and excitement about this unexpected announcement that Princess Naomi had just made about her engagement plans.“Wow, just look at this development,” someone in the crowd said loudly. “Princess Naomi has actually publicly chosen Nathaniel Jr. as her future husband right here in front of everyone.”“Congratulations to both of them,” another voice chimed in. “What a perfect match between two prestigious families.”The applause continued as more and more people joined in, caught up in the excitement of what felt like a major social event happening right before their eyes.Nathaniel Jr. stood there looking absolutely stunned by this sudden tu

    At that moment, Princess Sophia felt her patience finally reach its breaking point as she listened to her sister continue to whisper those cruel and disrespectful words about Tyler right there in front of everyone at the entrance. The anger that had been building up inside her chest suddenly burst forward, and she could no longer stand by quietly while Princess Naomi attacked someone who meant so much to her.“Naomi, you need to stop right now,” Princess Sophia said firmly, her voice still low enough to maintain some privacy but carrying an unmistakable tone of authority that made it clear she was not going to tolerate any more of this behavior. “I'm asking you to please reduce your harsh words and stop insulting my husband-to-be in the presence of all these people who are already watching our every move.”Immediately Princess Naomi's eyes went wide with shock when she heard her sister refer to Tyler as her future husband, her mouth falling open slightly because she had not expected

    At that moment, Princess Sophia could feel the weight of dozens of eyes following her every movement as she walked toward the venue entrance with Tyler by her side, both of them moving with the kind of easy grace that came from people who were comfortable in their own skin despite all the attention being directed their way. The crowd of well-dressed alumni and their guests parted slightly to create a path for them, everyone craning their necks to get a better look at the mysterious man who had arrived in such spectacular fashion.Tyler walked beside Princess Sophia with his hand resting lightly on the small of her back, a gentlemanly gesture that conveyed both respect and protection without being overly possessive or inappropriate for the formal setting they were entering. His expression remained calm and confident, showing no signs that he was bothered by all the staring and whispering that was happening around them.As they approached the main entrance where most of the other guests

    At that moment, Princess Naomi happened to be standing in a position where she could clearly overhear every single word that was coming out of Nathaniel Jr. and Robert's animated conversation about the incredibly rare and expensive car that had just pulled up to the university venue entrance. She had been chatting with some of her own friends from her university days, but the excitement and urgency in Nathaniel Jr.'s voice had caught her attention and drawn her focus toward their discussion about the limited edition Mercedes-Maybach.Princess Naomi found herself turning slightly so she could get a better view of the mysterious vehicle that had everyone so worked up, her own curiosity now thoroughly piqued because she wanted to know exactly who would be bold enough or wealthy enough to show up to a university alumni gathering in something that apparently only two people in the entire world were currently driving around.The car sat there for just a moment with its engine still running,

    At that moment, standing among the other well-dressed guests who were all gathered outside the university venue waiting for whatever signal would indicate it was appropriate to head inside, Nathaniel Jr. caught sight of the car Nathaniel Jr. had been engaged in casual conversation with his friend Robert about some business deals they were both considering, but the moment that sleek, elegant automobile came into view, every other thought completely disappeared from his mind because he immediately recognized something extraordinary about what he was seeing.His eyes locked onto the vehicle like a hunter spotting rare prey in the wild, his brain automatically cataloging all the distinctive features and design elements that were making his heart race with excitement and disbelief. Nathaniel Jr. had always prided himself on being an expert when it came to luxury automobiles, had spent countless hours studying the specifications and production details of every high-end car manufacturer in
