Aubery: I'm hanging up. Bye. (Who is that?) (A woman's voice has been heard)

Maggie felt an unexplainable feeling. Is she jealous? What if her mother is right? That she needs to confess her feelings to Aubery? She was confused.

"I tried not to fall in love with him. But I can't. I like him. I love him. I like him for so many years. And I think, I am ready to confess to him" she thought to her mind.

Her make up was monochromatic, done by the professional makeup artist in City A. She really is a goddess!

"Hmmm" Aubery didn't say anything but went directly to Mrs. Lavigne. "Aunt!" Aubery yelled. "You're here. Wait. I will call Maggie. She's inside her room" she said. "Please" Aubery nodded.

I'm going then" she immediately went downstairs. All the guests were looking at her. Amazed by her young looking beauty. Her dress fitted her well. Aubery stared at her and trying to calm his self. "Maggie's really beautiful. I must court and get her" a man beside Aubery said. He gave him a sharp look that signals the man to back off. The man became scary and kept his distant from Aubery.
