Chapter 500 The Kiss
As the woman spoke, she approached Zane. Her eyes carefully scanned Bianca, and the atmosphere grew tense.
In that instant, Bianca instinctively straightened her posture.
“This is my eldest sister–in–law, Yolanda Nelson,” Zane introduced casually, his tone devoid of emotion.
“Nice to meet you,” Bianca replied, maintaining her composure.
Yolanda chuckled dismissively, her demeanor clearly less than welcoming. She circled Bianca, eyes seemingly warm but carrying a different undertone.
“I didn’t expect Zane to bring you along. Here’s a token of our meeting,” Yolanda said, pulling Bianca’s wrist towards her.
Yolanda had fastened a bracelet around her wrist
The next moment, Bianca gasped audibly swiftly, causing a ripple of tension in the vicinity.
“You’re quite sensitive,” Yolanda remarked, her laughter fading as she rejoined the crowd.
The stares Bianca received were now even more unsettling.
Among them, Bianca felt an intense, burning gaze.
Following its source, she locked eyes with a woman whose looks were delicate but whose expression dripped with animosity.
Since Bianca and Zane’s entrance, that animosity seemed to have amplified.
It seemed that Zane… had a strained relationship with everyone in his family!
Despite the seemingly harmonious setting, there was an underlying tension. It was clear that each individual harbored their own motives.
Bianca’s initial impression was that it was all very complex.
When she glanced at Zane, she noticed a chilling intensity in his eyes and a palpable danger emanating from him. Reacting/instinctively, Bianca tugged at his sleeve in an attempt to calm him.
Zane’s demeanor softened instantly as he looked down at her, his fierce gaze replaced by a gentle smile.
Before he could speak, a butler approached and said, “Lord Zane, you’re back. The master wishes to see you.”

Zane nodded, turning his attention to Bianca,
She interjected before he could say anything, “Don’t worry about me. Go and attend to your
matters.”
“Are you sure?” Zane asked.
“Of course,” Bianca responded with a relieved smile.
Initially, she had been concerned about getting along with his family members. However, the pain in her wrist served as a stark reminder of their true nature.
With that realization, any apprehension she felt vanished instantly. Given the circumstances, interacting with the Entes family members was suddenly less stressful than she had imagined.
Zane wrapped an arm around her slender waist and planted a warm k*ss on her forehead.
Bianca’s reaction was one of surprise, and the onlookers gasped in astonishment.
At that moment, Bianca could distinctly feel the fiery gaze of animosity that had been directed at her earlier change…
It was as if that intense, burning stare had ignited and turned into a burning blaze!
