Chapter: 1007
Just then, a voice rang out. “Sanford, you've been rather odd lately.Why the frequent change of girlfriends?”
The crowd was familiar with both Maggie and Millie.
News of a supposed impending marriage between Sanford and Millie had been swirling just a few days prior, though the pair hadnever made an official statement.
And now, Sanford appeared with Maggie, which led to their bewilderment.
“You've misunderstood. I’m here accompanying Rosalynn,” Maggie clarified, blushing slightly.
Rosalynn affirmed, “Exactly. Maggie is my companion today.”
Sanford opened his mouth to speak but thought better of it.
If he were to express his desire for her to be his girlfriend again, would she bolt without a second thought?“Well, today’s guest of honor is Selina. Let’s focus on celebrating her.”
Brian skillfully redirected the conversation, defusing the awkward tension.
At Brian’s word, all eyes turned to the woman of the evening-Selina. As the party kicked off, the air was thick with laughter,conversation, and the clinking of drink glasses.
Deanna had a motive for returning to Wragos, and an idea blossomed in her mind as she signaled a waiter carrying a tray ofdrinks. She requested him to play a waltz.
“Brian, remember how you’d practice dancing with Selina for her dance competition? How about a reprise of that beautifulspectacle for us here tonight? That would be lovely, right?”novelbin
The request was simple enough, but the subtext was layered with implications.Nostalgia swept through the crowd, reminding them that once upon a time, Brian and Selina had been a couple.
But circumstances had changed.
Had Brian been single, it would have been a delightful trip down memory lane.However, he had brought Rosalynn with him tonight, which made the situation far from appropriate.Bringing Rosalynn was a statement clear as day-he was committed to her and her alone.
Selina, the belle of the ball, flushed with anticipation. She straightened in her seat, her face aglow under the carefully appliedmakeup.
Her eyes were fixed on Brian as she waited for him to ask her to dance.
