tense gaze directed at her.

She instinctively stood up and began to walk toward them. But as soon as Stephanie straightened up, she saw Vincent laughing his heart out, and she had a vague feeling that he was mocking her.

Dominick, like always, didn’t say much. He just lifted his half–full glass, clinked it with Scott’s, and drank it all in one go.

Stephanie then slowly sat back down, feeling she might have been overthinking. It was just three men drinking together, and Vincent’s sinister laugh surely meant he was joking about her again.

Vincent was indeed badmouthing her again. “Stephanie’s gotten so fierce and stubborn because of you. What man would want to marry her now? If Dominick ever divorces her, I bet she’ll never remarry. Let me know if that day comes. I want to witness it firsthand…”

Scott had just gone through a divorce and felt heavy–hearted. But after seeing his buddies laughing so carefreely at the party, he couldn’t help but chuckle.

Dominick then looked at his two childhood friends with a blank expression. He noticed that Scott’s smile had a touch of smug satisfaction, and Vincent was too enthusiastic.

Dominick irritably ignored them and thought that the only sane friend he had left was Oscar, but Oscar…
