Samson gave a nod. “Go ahead.”

“Yes!” Jill cheered and practically bounced with excitement. She grabbed Sloane’s hand and rushed off toward Eastgate Lounge, chattering non–stop along the way. “Sloane, Eastgate Lounge has a ton of fun stuff. Tonight we’re going all out!”

Behind them, Samson reminded, “Don’t stay out too late.”

“Got it!” Jill replied, already dragging Sloane into her car and speeding off.

Eastgate Lounge was the most exclusive club in Stonebridge–strictly members- only. Naturally, the bar for entry was high: a net worth of at least 7 million dollars, plus proven success in one’s field.

The club was divided into three main halls: the general lounge, the luxury hall, and the elite–level VIP suite.

Even Jill, despite her connections, had only visited the VIP suite a few times— always with Samson.

Inside, floor–to–ceiling panoramic windows wrapped around the entire lounge. Standing at the edge, the three of them looked out across the glittering Stonebridge skyline, the city’s brilliance spread beneath them in every direction.

“Come on, let’s hit the bar!” Jill said excitedly, tugging Sloane along. Every time she’d come before, Samson had forbidden her from going into the bar. She’d been dying to check it out.

Cameron frowned. “But Mr. Samson said not to.”

“Oh please, he’s not here. And he’s not gonna find out unless someone tells him. Quit nagging” Jill was in full party mode now–there was no stopping her.

Cameron had no choice but to follow, looking uneasy.

Inside the bar, Jill let loose. She danced wildly to the beat of the music, totally in her element. Her energy was contagious–cheers and whistles rose from the crowd around her.
