Nicole and Julie went back to the banquet hall. Everyone started to mingle and laugh with each other.

It was as if that little episode earlier did not exist at all.

Knowing Nicole’s identity, no one dared to force her to drink. They only exchanged some pleasantries and kept their distance.

Keith braced himself and decided to go over to say a few words for his friend. “Nicole, I didn’t mean that. That watch earlier… Why didn’t you get it for Eric? He waited for you all night at his birthday party, but you didn’t come…“
