Derick nodded and headed out with his an and his delicate wife

Once out of earshot, Magnolia’s face turned stem, her voice barely a whisper. Toney, will we let that country girl treat my brother? That

She cared deeply for her family and didn’t want Claude to fall into the hands of a quack.

Derick gently squeezed her shoulder. “Let’s just go along with what the folks want for now. As for Dr. Quigley, we’ll watch her closely

Magnolia nodded in agreement. “A country girl who unexpectedly married Howard and then cured his legs. And Howard happened to be the power behind Summit Corp. All these things together don’t seem

coincidental. Probably, Enoch in paving the way for her, trying to regain his stature as a master of traditional medicine.”

Derrick spoke with strategy. “Selina’s return to the country. She can’t let go of Howard. That country girl has deep schemes, so you have to protect Selina A union between the Hamilton and the Chadwick families would be ideal.”

Magnolia thought of her daughter’s sullenness, and her heart ached.

“Honey, what should we do now?” she asked.

“We need to find a way to make Gwendolyn file for divorce herself.”

Magnolia pondered deeply.

Leaning against the balcony railing, she looked down into the ballroom to see Selina, the belle of the ball, her smile radiant. Who could guess such a beautiful young woman had nearly been driven mad by her demons?

Her heartache was Howard

Neither of the Hamilton brothers, Sanford nor Skyler, had shown up. One was busy at the hospital, and the other lost himself in motorcycle racing. The Hamilton and Lopez families‘ jewel, Selina, stood out

more, seemingly stealing the baby’s thunder.

In the ballroom, Selina wore a black dress adorned with diamonds and lace, resembling the noble black swan from Swan Lake reborn. Her figure was lithe and elegant, her presence unique.

With a petite but pricey tiara, her makeup was effortlessly exquisite

She was the center of attention, with the society ladies and young gentlemen circling her, their words filled with endless praise, their eyes reflecting admiration and approval.

“Stella, you’ve grown into such a pretty girl. There’s no girl in the whole town who tops you”

Selina responded gracefully, “Thanks for the kind words. Tonight, I’m hosting for my uncle, so enjoy yourselves, please”

“Good girl!”

A familiar lady took her hand, gushing. I’m envious. I don’t have a daughter, just a disappointing son. Selina, would you consider being my daughter–in–law?”

“Hey, that’s not fair. Selina should be coming

to my

house.”

With a daughter like Selina, the Hamilton family was the envy of many.

Facing their enthusiasm, Selina blushed and giggled. “Oh please, I’m still young.”

Out of the comer of her eye, she spotted someone approaching the entrance and made an excuse to leave. “Enjoy the party, everyone./I better greet the guests.”

With that, she brushed a stray lock of hair from her face and walked off, a smile playing on her lips.
