Ignatius Leclair calmly finished giving his orders, sending the two young ladies to the hospital. This, in essence, marked the end of the engagement banquet between the Leclair Family and the Yeager Family after Bessie Leclair's fall from the horse.
The elder Yeager and Stone Leclair, timing their departure, were just about to leave when they received word of the incident—the engagement banquet had collapsed, and the Yeager manor had detained many young heirs of prestigious families.
The elder Leclair was furious and nearly fainted on the spot, while Stone Leclair's expression was equally grim. This alliance represented a major pact involving three families.
Fortunately, no irreparable damage had been done.
