Candice looked at them in silence.

Alex claimed that he was busy because he was staying back with Sonia.

Candice took a deep breath and feigned nonchalance as she retrieved her phone.

Alex and Sonia then noticed her.

Alex looked at Candice. “Why are you still here?”

Candice waved her phone. “I forgot my phone. I’m going now.”

Guests who noticed Candice was alone went up to her and asked about Alex.

Candice handled them skillfully and confidently. “He has a meeting to attend. He’ll come if he can make it.”

A generic excuse that everyone understood once they read between the lines.

To everyone’s surprise, Alex made an appearance halfway through the banquet with Sonia by his side.
