1/7
Lydia watched from the sidelines, feeling a knot of discomfort in
her stomach.
She had invited Meryl here today with the intention of embarrassing Meryl, but who would have thought that as soon as Meryl arrived, she would become the star of the gathering thanks to that piece of music?
The news that Meryl had recently become Harvey's protégé only added fuel to the fire, drawing more and more people eager to curry favor with her.

"Dalton... I'm almost done here. Can you come and get me?"
Dalton had been busy with work lately, but tonight, he happened to be nearby at dinner, just a five-minute drive away.

Just to be safe, Charlotte had called Dalton to remind him to pick Lydia up after his dinner.
No matter how much he might not want to be around her, he still had to respect his mother's wishes.
A few minutes later, Dalton arrived at the event, impeccably dressed in a sharp suit.
Dalton was a year ahead of them in school and had been quite the campus celebrity-everyone knew who he was.
