Tina locked eyes with Amber, who was descending from the upstairs lounge, surrounded by young admirers. "Tina, you made it," Amber greeted her with a condescending smile, playing the gracious host. Noticing Hugo and Jennie were absent, Amber felt a twinge of annoyance but figured it was for the best, avoiding further gossip about past conflicts. However, she was concerned about not seeing Jared Farrell. "Why didn't Mr. Farrell accompany you?" she asked
