The guests laughed when Ilyana spoke. Lev noticed how soulless these people are. Their eyes were all black but at the same time green from greed. Whatever Ilyana request and whatever she does, these people will try their best to vocally response to her so she would favor them. He found it weird that no one laugh unless they saw her smiling first. It's as if her mood was the cue and she could change it any moment she feels.
The authority wasn't bad to his eyes but it was the hypocrisy that these people had that made him frown. Even though they seemed to be careful with her, none of them thought much of her and when she leaves, he could hear them whispering about her, mostly probably negatively.
"What about we start the game of pool now?" Kevin, Mrs Evon's son announced with the loudest voice. He looked at Ilyana and pleasantly smile. "It might help you lift the mood by playing a round."
