Chapter 503 Something Amiss with the Man

Both Bianca and Natalie had carefree personalities, making it hard for them to grasp the intricacies and

constraints of the situation.

However, Natalie’s free spirit seemed to have abruptly worn away while she had been around

Cedric.

“What, you don’t like it here?” Malcolm asked.

“Do you enjoy it?” Bianca raised an eyebrow at Malcolm, who smiled in response.

“Even if you don’t, you have to stay until it’s over,” he replied.

“I see.”

In that case, Bianca was adamant about not returning here in the future.

However, after today’s gathering, she intended to understand the Entes family thoroughly, especially its

current generation!

Malcolm observed the interaction between Bianca and Zane, their smiles increasingly an eyesore to

him.

Malcolm exuded an unmistakable hostility.

During dinner, Bianca finally met the legendary Entes family head, Robert Entes, who seemed to be in

less–than–perfect health.

To her surprise, Zane sat beside the elderly man, and she naturally sat beside Zane. The moment she

took her seat, she felt that something was amiss.

Amidst the dinner, Robert turned his gaze to Bianca and said in a gentle voice, “Bianca?”

“Yes, Father,” Bianca replied with a nod.

Although the old man seemed gentle, his eyes were as sharp as an eagle’s. The very aura emitted by

the head of such a prominent family subtly overwhelmed everyone present.

“The Entes family welcomes you,” Robert said.

“Thank you, Father,” Bianca responded, leaving everyone in silence.

When everyone’s eyes shifted towards Bianca, it was evident that their hostility had

intensified.

In Simeria, everyone knew the status of women in the Entes family. Never had a new daughter -in–law

been directly addressed by the patriarch.

This gathering seemed less like a family banquet and more like a welcome party for Zane and

Given the evident favoritism towards Zane, Bianca couldn’t help but wonder if she was being treated

similarly due to her association with him.

Even with the old patriarch present, she sensed the undercurrents of tension and intrigue surrounding

her. At that moment, every gaze upon her felt intensely scrutinizing. It was a family banquet, yet

everyone seemed to harbor ulterior motives.

This was perhaps the first time Bianca had ever faced such pressure in her life, especially for

something seemingly inconsequential to her.

In the end, she couldn’t recall how she managed to leave the grand Entes Manor.

As she stepped out of the main gate, Zane could distinctly sense Bianca exhaling a sigh of

relief.

“Were you that nervous?” His voice remained calm, devoid of any discernible emotion.

However, Bianca couldn’t maintain her composure any longer.

She looked at Zane and asked, “Is it always like this when you return home?”

Or perhaps, had he grown accustomed to such gatherings since childhood? Such a stifling

environment was truly oppressive!

When Bianca looked at Zane again, she gained a renewed understanding of the historically prestigious

Entes family, renowned even in Verde City.

She knew how many elites aspired to be associated with the Entes family in Simeria. Despite

understanding the negligible status of women in such a setting, some still sacrificed them for the

family’s sake.

“More or less,” Zane responded simply, his tone remaining steady.

At that moment, Bianca fell silent.

More or less?!

For her, just once was already suffocating enough.

Yet, for him, it seemed like an ongoing ordeal.

She recalled how frequently Malcolm used to return home not so long ago. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
