After the wedding ceremony, Tay began to search for Princess Anya, eager to steal a few moments with her amidst the festivities. However, despite his efforts, he couldn't seem to locate her anywhere among the guests.

Just as Tay was growing increasingly frustrated, New tapped him on the shoulder, breaking him out of his reverie. Tay turned to face his husband, his expression questioning.

"She's at the roses garden, waiting for you. Go," New whispered, his voice barely audible over the din of the crowd.

Tay's eyes widened in surprise, a sense of relief washing over him at the news. He glanced at New, silently conveying his gratitude for the assistance.

New nodded in response, tapping Tay's shoulder once more. "Go on, I'll cover for you," he reassured Tay, a small smile playing on his lips.

With a nod of thanks, Tay slipped away, his heart pounding with anticipation as he made his way to the roses garden to meet Princess Anya.

Meanwhile, New seamlessly blended back into the crowd, mingling with the other guests as he kept a watchful eye on the proceedings.

As the guests busily congratulated Fah on her wedding, the air was filled with joyous chatter and laughter. However, amidst the celebration, Luke found trouble once again.

Spotting a glass in the hands of one of the passing servants, Luke seized the opportunity and made his way over to Fah. She wore a nervous expression as Luke approached, a sense of unease creeping over her.

New noticed Luke's approach, his expression darkening with each step the troublemaker took. Sensing trouble, New moved to intercept before Luke could reach his sister.

"Luke! What do you want?" New demanded, his voice edged with a hint of warning.

Luke simply raised his glass in a mock toast, his smirk evident as he spoke. "I'm just offering a toast to congratulate Fah on her wedding," he replied casually, his tone dripping with insincerity.Fah placed a reassuring hand on New's shoulder, her gaze steady as she addressed him. "It's alright, New," she assured him, her voice calm despite the tension in the air.

With a resigned sigh, Fah lifted her own glass, choosing to indulge Luke's facade for the sake of peace. She clinked her glass with his and took a sip of the wine, a forced smile playing on her lips.

Luke smirked triumphantly at Fah's compliance before sauntering away, leaving New seething with frustration and anger.

Luke's smirk widened into a sinister grin as his gaze fell upon New standing in front of the table, his mind racing with a devious plan. Behind New, a towering structure of champagne glasses stood, stacked precariously upon one another, ready to topple with the slightest disturbance.
