The atmosphere at the table was surprisingly warm and friendly. A few people were great at keeping the conversation flowing, asking Joelle about her experiences abroad, how long she planned to stay this time, and, of course, the topic everyone was dying to know about–her love life.
Joelle instinctively glanced at Charles, but he was unusually quiet tonight.
One of the women at the table picked up on Charles’s aloofness and let out a sarcastic laugh. “We’re asking about your love life, Joelle–why are you looking at Mr. Sinclair? He’s already married, after all.”
The moment those words were spoken, the mood at the table shifted, becoming tense and awkward.
Panic flickered in Joelle’s eyes. “I don’t have a boyfriend.”
The woman rolled her eyes, folding her arms. “I heard you’ve got a boyfriend overseas–he even chased you all the way back here, didn’t he? But you didn’t bring him tonight. What, planning to dump him and pick someone new off the guest list?”
Joelle barely hid her disgust. The woman who mouthed off wasn’t even some high–society queen–she was just arm candy for one of Joelle’s admirers.
Seriously, jealousy really does make people say the craziest stuff.
As expected, the man sitting next to her smacked her across the face. “Beat it. No one wants to hear your nonsense here.”
The woman burst into tears, covering her face as she ran out of the room.
Joelle’s eyes grew red as she sighed. “I swear, it’s not like that. That guy isn’t my boyfriend–he’s just some crazy superfan who keeps following me around.”
She rubbed her temples, a trace of frustration appearing on her face. “Anyway, thanks for coming tonight, everyone.”
She looked a little tired and reached for the glass beside her, but as she did, her wrist was exposed–showing faint purple marks from being tightly gripped.
Quentin was the first to notice; his face went cold, like a block of ice.
“Joelle, your hand…” Quentin said, voice tight with concern.
Joelle hurriedly covered her wrist, giving a strained little smile. “It happened when I was too deep into a movie role–I got so lost in the character I couldn’t pull myself out. That’s all…”
Oscar let out a sigh. “You mean The Ashes, right? The one that got you Best Actress. Honestly, you inhabited that role so well that when I saw you last year, I thought you might still be living it. Glad to see you’re doing much better now.”
Joelle nodded, lowering her eyelashes. “I really appreciate your advice back then, Mr. Rowe. It helped me a lot.”
