The dining room is hushed, save for the clink of silverware. Magnolia, the unseen princess, sits rigid in a Dior black-and-white dress, her heart a fragile secret.

The Queen, Bridget, laughs, bridging the gap between royalty and wealth, while Rhys watches his daughter, shielding her from the weight of their gazes.
