"Father!" Miss Elvy squealed, mercilessly poking the Duke of Choiseul on the waist.

Seeing this, Lawrence smiled, shook his head, waved his hand and said:

"Thank you for your kindness, Miss Elvy, but I still want to hang out here. After all, this is my first time in the Hall of Mirrors."

"Ah, that's a pity. I wish you a happy party."

Miss Elvy said with some disappointment. At the same time, she glanced at Lawrence shyly from the corner of her eyes, then tiptoed close to Duke Choiseul's ear and said:

"Hmph, father, you really should learn from M. Bonaparte's demeanor. I feel embarrassed every time I bring you to my new sisters. If only I could bring M. Bonaparte there, they would definitely be envious.
