"It must be her close friend Miss Jones calling her out. Don't worry."
After a moment, feeling that the timing was about right, I exclaimed in surprise.
"Miss Jones is not here today, so is Chloe in trouble?"
The guests at the banquet turned to look at me. I pretended to bow to the main seat in embarrassment.
"Your Highness, I'm sorry. Please help me find my sister. I'll be forever grateful."
After receiving the princess's permission, I noticed my mother's disapproving gaze, and I chuckled to myself.
How did Chloe do it in my previous life? It seemed like I was just repeating what she did.
No one had taken the matter seriously, but after a short time, we heard a commotion.
"Oh no, oh no!"
Lily, who had left earlier, returned to the banquet with the guards from the princess's residence, looking pale and frantic.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing my mother's expression change, I also made a concerned face.
Lily still hesitated for a long time before finally speaking.
"A ruffian has offended Miss Chloe... Your Highness, please do something about it!"
A large group of people rushed to see the commotion. My mother and I, as the family of the victim, naturally stood in the front row.
