Meanwhile, a gasp echoed from the doorway. Selena spun around and spotted two men in sharp evening suits. One was Jaime, looking utterly flabbergasted, and the other seemed strangely familiar despite being a stranger. Since marrying Everett, she had grown used to his cold shoulder, and his friends were no different, dismissive and condescending. But she had long stopped caring about their opinions.

The man laughed. "So, is she or isn't she?"

Jaime was at a loss, "Honestly, I'm not sure anymore..."

Selena went into Everett's room to change and freshen up before stepping out again. She bumped into the same strangely familiar man, who seemed to be searching for something. When he saw her, he approached and gently asked, "Mrs. Bennett, could you point me to the restroom?"
