As that thought occurred to her, her face contorted in a mask of fury for a brief second as she trembled in rage. She then took to leave Mr. Gunn beside her and went to the lounge to make a phone call.

Meanwhile, Shane walked over to Jackson, who was drinking alone. “Why didn't you go over when Jacqueline is over there?”

Couldn't you see that she doesn't want me to keep her company by her side? I've been here for ages, yet she didn't seem at all inclined to introduce any of the Gunn family to me.”

Shane frowned upon hearing that. “So, what's your take on that?”
