Lily Gray was speechless by Joan Wellington's words.
Just as she thought to ask for clarification, Dylan Wellington suddenly spoke up.
"Sister-in-law, tonight's charity dinner party is hosted by the Wellington family. For the opening dance later on, I just happen to be short of a dance partner. How about you keep me company for the opening dance, sister-in-law?"
Dylan leaned against the sofa, his black pupils landing on Lily Gray's face, the smile at the corner of his lips carrying a trace of evil.
Lily Gray was stunned by Dylan's proposal, and just when she wanted to refuse, Joan Wellington had already jumped up.
"Brother, how can you invite her to be your opening dance partner… Didn't we agree that I would be the one to dance with you for the opening?"
Moreover, this woman is still Brother Ethan's wife, at least in name.
Joan Wellington didn't want to acknowledge Lily Gray's status as Mrs. Lucas, so she held back this sentence and didn't say it out loud.
