Victoria stood there in a daze, utterly bewildered.

Chaos erupted around her, drawing the attention of both the gallery's security and the visitors. Nearly everyone paused, eager to watch the spectacle unfold.

Violet and McNeil stood side by side, the picture of a perfect couple, their eyes drifting toward the commotion.

Victoria hurried over and managed to separate Osborn and Marcus before things escalated further.
