The moment Adrian heard Jayden’s name, his expression soured even further. Jayden had barely scraped through college thanks to a hefty family donation. He was nothing more than a useless loafer riding the coattails of the family name–how dare someone like that take his spot at such a prestigious event?

Sloane stood quietly off to the side, holding her invitation. Her eyes lowered, hiding the flicker of emotion beneath her lashes.

From across the room, Samantha watched Sloane’s retreating figure, jealousy burning in her chest. This was the kind of opportunity she had begged for, longed for, and never received— and now Sloane had it handed to her effortlessly. How could she accept that?

She quickly walked over to Adrian, feigning outrage. “What is going on here? You’ve always gone to the banquet. And now they’re sending Jayden? That idiot?”

Then, with a heavy sigh, she added dramatically, “Well, at least Sloane is going. I mean, we still have someone representing the family. It’s just… such a shame that you can’t be there.”

That final remark–about the limited number of seats–struck a nerve. Adrian’s gaze darkened. His eyes flicked toward the invitation in Sloane’s hand, and the pieces clicked.

“It was her,” he growled. “Sloane stole my spot.”

His fists clenched, veins bulging across the backs of his hands. “She thinks just because she got that invitation, she can waltz into the banquet like a queen? Be the star of the show? Dream
