You okay? I nod. Barely. I'm okay. It's a lie. But it's the lie we both need right now. Callum comes back, drops onto the couch, and the game swallows them again. I stay curled in my corner, watching the light from the screen flicker across their faces, and I think about the card still in my bag. Callum's Lux card. The one he doesn't know is missing. I think about how thin the line is between what they know and what they don't. How one wrong word, one stray look, one phone call from Jade, and the whole thing collapses.

The comments were already popping. [Congrats on escaping misery and starting fresh!] [Omg Ella's living a rom-com. How'd you score a hot CEO?] Chuck—handsome, rich, CEO of a public company. Everyone knew who he was. Ella was eating it up. [Because I'm young and cute? Lol. Actually, he loves me.] [Don't be jelly—you'll find your prince too!] I just sat there, staring. The bitterness didn't even sting—it was almost funny.

I raised a brow and said coolly, “Do I need to spell it out for you?” Jason stared intently at me, as though suppressing some complex cocktail of emotions. After a few seconds, he suddenly said in a low voice, “Don’t regret it later.” I smiled. “The only thing I regret is not seeing all of your true colors earlier.” My mother flew off the handle, jabbing a finger at me. “Nina Gordon, you disappoint us! Are you going to break ties with your family for something so trivial?!” My father was just as furious. “If you insist, then don’t blame us for doing the same. From today onward, you’re no longer our daughter!”

"Say it again. Who is your girlfriend?" Thomas scanned the sea of doubtful faces, then erupted. "Imogen Slater, CEO of the Slater Group!" A snicker escaped someone in the crowd. Laughter rippled outward like a wave. Thomas hurled the shoebox to the floor. "You dare mock me? I'll have Imogen fire every single one of you!"

Biting back my frustration, I rolled up my sleeves and started to climb. The fine branches scratched at my skin, leaving behind little trails of blood. From below, Wendy kept barking orders. "Higher, just a bit higher!" As I strained to reach further, a sudden snap sounded from below. The branch gave way, and I tumbled down.

Amara touched his shoulder as she responded in a low tone that made Serena raise her brow before she grinned and turned away to show Tanya the ducks waddling in the duck pond. “Don’t be dramatic, honey. Bedlam is no longer functioning, and I don’t mind you being crazy about me as much as it is the right type of crazy.” Serena felt the tip of her ear heat as she looked firmly away. But when she heard Bo’s soft-spoken “Sweetheart,” she cleared her throat loudly and shouted, “Hello, third party here.”
