Cody, heir to the Blake Group, had always been a steadfast admirer of S, never hesitating to spend extravagantly on her performances.
Cody was predicted by everyone to be tonight’s biggest winner. It had appeared to be a given.
It was unexpected that Lennon would declare Eric the winner.
Cody had swallowed his displeasure at first, but now, the tide had shifted in his favor.
