As soon as those words fell, everyone in the Queen residence turned toward the mansion's entrance. Roxanne also did the same instinctively.
Lucian was dressed in a tailored black suit. The suit was so well-fitted that it was showcasing the man's toned figure. With most of his hair combed to the back, his perfect facial features were for everyone to see. At the same time, those few stray strands of hair hanging down from his forehead prompted his gaze to appear even more icy-cold than they were. All in all, he looked cold and distant.
Everyone's gazes fell on him at once.
Aubree appeared behind him wearing a black dress. Her curly hair was hanging down on her chest, and her red lips were exceptionally eyecatching. At that moment, her arm was seen wrapping around Sonya's affectionately as they followed Lucian from behind.
With their matching outfits and the affectionate interaction between Aubree and Sonya, it was as if they were telling the world that Aubree was bound to be the future daughter-in-law of the Farwell family.
Upon seeing that scene, Frieda glanced at Roxanne from the corners of her eyes. Still, she was dissatisfied when she saw Roxanne's unperturbed facial expression. Right then, she deliberately held her mother's hand and exclaimed, “Wow! Lucian and Aubree look so great together!”
Henrietta didn't know what they were up to, but she was aware of the close relationship between the Pearson family and the Farwell family. Besides, Aubree was always seen together with Lucian. She nodded in agreement and uttered, “It seems like they might get married soon.”
Roxanne's expression changed slightly when she heard that. However, she quickly composed herself and lifted her head once again.
Jonathan was standing next to Roxanne when he remembered the conflict between her and Lucian, so he subconsciously glanced at her. He was surprised when he saw how calm she looked.
Lucian wasn't happy with the attention he had gotten from the crowd. His gaze turned cold, and he walked straight toward the center of the birthday banquet. He wanted to just greet Alfred before coming up with an excuse to separate from Aubree.
Henrietta and Zachary were closely acquainted with the Farwell family. Hence, they went up to welcome the guests with a smile. “Hi! Welcome. This is...”
As they spoke, both of them glanced at Sonya.
Sonya merely smiled in response.
Next to her, Aubree seemed slightly shy when she greeted the elders politely. After that, she just listened as they chatted.
