Under the Veil I Rule novel Chapter 51

At the sight of them, Elysia's brows furrowed as she instinctively rose to her feet, like she was ready to start a fight.

Amara quickly grabbed Elysia’s sleeve, whispering, “Ely, don’t. Let them do whatever they want. We’ll just ignore them.”

“But there are so many people here who know about you and Finnian.”

Elysia's expression darkened.

“Outside is one thing, but these are all the high society folks of Wye. Many of them attended your wedding with Finnian.”

Amara understood this too. She clenched her fists, forcing herself to ignore the judgmental stares.

“It’s alright. Let them gossip all they want. They’ve been doing it for three years. I’m used to it by now.”

Amara wasn’t immune to the hurt; she’d just been hurt so many times that her heart was numb. Besides, she and Finnian were getting a divorce. Better to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Elysia sighed, sitting back down next to Amara. But when she stood up earlier, Liliana had noticed her, and then she looked at Amara with a fixed gaze.

Soon, the auction began.

Liliana was undeniably the star of this auction. She had Finnian bid on only a few items for her, four in total, but each was a priceless treasure.

One of them was a rare pink diamond, and as soon as it was sold, people around them congratulated her, asking if she planned to have it set into a ring or if she and Finnian were getting married.

Liliana and Finnian didn’t directly deny any of these questions, so those who were eager to flatter them started congratulating them in advance on their marriage.
