After being pampered for twenty years, how could the little princess handle such humiliation?


    The Zade family''s favoritism towards their sons and their selfishness could drive anyone insane, let alone Arabe, who had never faced adversity.


    As the argument grew more heated, the surrounding guests instinctively stepped back, wary of getting caught in the crossfire.


    Lavinia pulled Miranda back a few steps. "Strange, why isn''t their son stepping in to calm things down?"


    Miranda nced over at Dorian and his siblings. Indeed, from the start, they had been standing like statues, indifferent and unmoved. Not a single one of them made a move to intervene.


    Moreover, from the look in their eyes, Miranda got the feeling that they weren''t surprised at all.


    Originally, Miranda thought if Arabe were to flirt, it would be with those four brothers. Arabe had always had a possessive streak when it came to them, not to mention the brotherplex. She would leap at the chance to sleep with them.


    So why had she bypassed them and started messing around with their father instead? Miranda wasn''t the only one puzzled; the other onlookers were just as bewildered.


    To prevent further chaos, the organizers of the charity auction quickly dispatched security. It was only then that Dorian stepped forward, grabbed Arabe, and pped her across the face twice. "You''re a disgrace!" he said coldly.


    Arabe fell to the ground, humiliated and enraged, looking up at Dorian. "Dorian."


    The security guards then proceeded to escort her out, taking the entire Hawke family with them out of the g.


    The twin brothers, Orion and Lysander, helped thementable and regretful Mrs. Hawke out. She had intended to see Miranda, calling her out in the distance, but Lavinia''s bodyguards blocked her path, preventing her from getting close.


    Miranda averted her gaze with indifference. This only deepened Mrs. Hawke''s despair, and she kept repeating, "I''m sorry. I''m sorry. I was wrong. I''m sorry." Dorian cast a lingering nce at Miranda before leaving with the rest of his family. The scandal involving the Hawke family spread like wildfire among the social circles. The ckwell family, who once had a marriage contract with the Hawkes, felt lucky that they cut ties early.


    Theo even posted a disgusted emoji, adding fuel to the fire. Other youngdies who had been considered for marriage by the Hawkes also chimed in with their own gossip and criticisms.


    "What a mess! I''m d I didn''t say yes to them. Otherwise, I''d be too embarrassed to show my face."


    "I''m seriously wondering if Arabe ever got intimate with the four brothers."


    "Ugh, no wonder Miranda doesn''t acknowledge them or want to return to the Hawke family. It''s disgusting!"


    "Those who criticized Miranda for not recognizing her biological family, would you ept them if you were in her shoes?"


    "How could someone stoop as low as Arabe?"


    "That''s why when my parents said being an only child was pitiful and considered adopting a sister, I absolutely refused. Who knows what kind of person you''d bring into your home."


    The auction continued as usual, but beneath the surface, everyone''s phones were buzzing with thetest gossip.


    Lavinia sighed softly and patted Miranda''s hand. Though she didn''t say anything, her gesture spoke volumes.


    Miranda smiled faintly. She knew her godmother was concerned for her and feared she might be upset.


    Miranda had anticipated something


    like this happening to Arabe and


    the Hawke family and was quite pleased to see it unfold. Watching them lose everything they valued was a form of redemption for the old Miranda.


    At present, the Hawkes lost their


    cherished social standing and even


    money, while Arabe lost


    everything that never truly belonged to her her parents'' love, her


    brothers'' favoritism, and her status as the cherished little princess.


    Moreover, Miranda had returned the family Arabe had wrongfully imed. The


    pain the old Miranda had once endured was now Arabe''s burden.


    But Miranda was a bit curious. The way Dorian and his brothers behaved today made her confused, wondering if they were already aware of Arabe''s affair with Alden.


    Even she was astounded that they


    showed no shock. As Miranda


    pondered this, Jasper chattered beside her, "You know, carrying the simngenes, it''s amazing how'' you''re the only normal one in the


    Hawke family."


    Miranda gave him a once-over with her eyes. Jasper shifted ufortably under


    her gaze. "What? Why are you looking at me like that?"


    Miranda asked, "Don''t you have anywhere else to be? Why are you always around me?"


    Jasper chuckled. "Well, being around you means I get the scoop firsthand."


    In truth, he wanted to spend more time with Miranda, and build a better connection. The gossip he was really interested in wasn''t about the Hawke family at all. It was about those two titans.


    Miranda was left speechless.


    Lavinia looked briefly at Jasper. Though she said nothing, as they walked aside, she quietly warned Miranda, "That boy''s a flirt. Don''t let him fool you."
