Atticus' POV:
I understood that I had no other choice but to get Eloise to agree.
The scandal between Lisa and I had been widely spread. The best way to solve this problem was to prove that Eloise and I were still very close, at least to the extent that we could attend this event together.
"We have a deal," I said through gritted teeth.
"However, the doctor just said you will recover faster with your mate by your side. Is that true?" Eloise looked at me, her eyes filled with curiosity.
No matter what, my arm didn't hurt as much as before. However, I didn't think there was a need for her to know about this. So, I just kept silent and didn't answer her.
"Alright, Jude, take her to look at the clothes. I don't want to see her dressed like this at the banquet. It's too strange." I called for Jude and sent her away.
