Anger boiled into Stella's eyes, when she heard that, "Lady Verbena!" She almost yelled.
A foolish woman like Verbena could never understand Eleanore. She is the kind of woman whom anyone could manipulate yet speaks trash about Lady Eleanore. Lady Eleanore in the sheer contrast only listens to her mind.
Stella knew who was pulling the strings. Her eyes immediately shifted to the person who was sitting beside Verbena.
It is the woman who was enjoying the show, as she sipped on her cup of fragrant tea. Her mint hair tied together in a loose bun and her light grey eyes remained fixed on the cherry blossom tea, near the table.
Adena Velarose, the daughter of Marquise Velarose, belongs to the maternal side of Grand Duke Caelestis Lancaster. His only cousin and probably the one who hates Stella the most. She could feel Stella's fierce gaze on her but chose to ignore it, as she smiled through her teeth.
