It was then that Steve Burton’s mother remembered that last night, Olivia Foster had angrily approached her, almost speaking out in front of many aristocratic ladies, revealing Steve’s disgraceful actions on the viewing platform.
She had originally planned to ask Olivia about the identity of the woman on the viewing platform after the banquet was over. However, she noticed that during the banquet, Steve frequently looked at a beautiful young woman and sometimes even seemed to be lost in thought while staring at her. When he realized that his mother was watching him, he would immediately shift his gaze and pretend to be engrossed in his conversation with Rusell Henris.
She knew her son well, and that he was simply trying to cover up his actions.
The more she observed this, the more suspicious she became of the woman Steve had been looking at.
As she had expected, as soon as Rusell escorted the woman out through the back door, Steve left through the front door.
She sent a waiter to follow them and took many pictures of Steve and the woman sitting together in the pavilion behind the banquet hall.
In the photos, the two laughed and talked happily. In the end, Steve even picked a flower for her and left with her.
After receiving the photos, Steve’s mother was certain that this woman was most likely the one she had caught in the act with Steve on the viewing platform.
After some investigation, she found out that the woman’s name was Charlotte Madris.
Since she had confirmed the identity of the woman on the viewing platform, she did not bother asking Olivia. However, now that Olivia brought it up, it would allow her to confirm her suspicions with certainty. Thus, Steve’s mother nodded at Olivia.

I don’t claim to know all of them, but at least I’ve seen most of them before. So, I roughly asked each guest. Almost everyone spent the night with someone they were familiar with, except for…”
At this point, Olivia paused and glanced in Ruby Gregory’s direction.
By now, Ruby and Steve had returned to their senses.
Ruby had a vague idea of who Olivia was referring to in her story.
However, she was not entirely sure.
After all, she had deliberately taken a detour on her way back to the banquet hall last night.
The rest of the people present did not know what the conversation between
Olivia and Steve’s mother was about, so they listened silently, still confused. Steve’s mother carefully observed Olivia, waiting for her to reveal the answer..
