A week later. Thea walked into the venue, dressed in a stunning black, backless mermaid-style gown that hugged her figure perfectly, invitation in hand

The hall was dazzling, illuminated by beautiful crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling, casting a cool, shimmering light.

Nicolas had some business to handle, so he asked Thea to wait for him at the venue.

The auction hadn't begun yet, so Thea found a quiet corner and settled down with a glass of wine. She was just about to take a sip when she overheard a conversation nearby that piqued her interest. We've always known Jake was talented, one man remarked. "He's accomplished so much at Hendrix Group at such a young age. Look at him. He's truly a standout."

"Who's that woman with him? His rumored fiancéel his companion asked

"That's his assistant from Avon Ventures," the first man replied. "She's a smart one. They've handled big projects together. Unlike his fiancée, who just sits at home, causing drama and stirring up trouble." "Exactly," the second man chimed in. "I heard his fiancée is so petty that she nearly destroyed the assistant's reputation over jealousy

The first man scoffed, "A woman like that - jealous and manipulative - won't get far in life. No matter how good-looking she is, I wouldn't want her'

A loud crash suddenly interrupted their conversation as a wine glass shattered on the floor. Both men turned in surprise.

Thea smiled sweetly. "Oops! I got so caught up in your conversation. By the way, is Jake here tonight with his assistant I'd love to meet her. I'm a big fan of strong women."

Her soft tone and bright eyes, paired with her naturally captivating looks, left the men completely charmed. They had no idea that they had just insulted her moments ago. Eager to please, the men told her where Jake and Madelyn were, falling over themselves to be helpful.
