The Billionaire's Unexpected Proposal by Samantha

Chapter 70

While Derek was lost in conversation with Ethan about his crazy plan, Evelyn stole glances at him at intervals, wondering how his date with Sandra had gone

"Come on, Evie, let's hit the dancefloor. It's been ages since I saw you dance," she said with a grin.

Evelyn chuckled but shook her head as she turned to face Rayna. "Nah, I don't think I can do that anymore..."

"Why not?" Kayna asked, but Evelyn shook her head.

"Like you said, it's been ages since I last danced. I do not have it in me anymore. I'm not here to dance, only to keep you company while you do your boyfriend hunt. You go ahead, and I'll cheer for you from here," she said with an encouraging smile.

Rayna pouted, clearly disappointed. "It's no fun dancing alone, so I won't bother. Maybe we should just head home since it's quite obvious I won't be getting any man's attention tonight, Rayna said with a sigh and took a long sip from her drink.

Evelyn frowned, feeling a twinge of guilt. I'm sorry, Ray. I didn't mean to ruin your night," Evelyn said with a frown.

Rayna sighed, her expression softening. "No. You didn't ruin it, don't worry. I'm glad we got to do this," Rayna said, and Evelyn looked at her skeptically.

"Are you sure?" Evelyn asked, her tone laced with concern, and Hayna nodded.

"Yeah, we've been here for over two hours already. I think it's time to call it a night," she said, and Evellyn nodded, feeling a wave of relief.

"Let's do that, then. It's been a long week, and I'm tired to my bones, Evelyn said, thinking about spending the weekend relaxing with Samantha.

Rayna nodded and pushed back her chair. "Let me quickly use the restroom before we leave. Il be right back," she said, and Evelyn gave her a nod

As Evelyn watched her friend weave through the crowd, her mind drifted back to her encounter with Derek.
