The room was thick with tension as the former lovers exchanged sharp words and even sharper glances.

Elora chuckled and said, "Oh Bettie, always with her jokes. Lance, failing abroad? He's practically royalty in the venture capital realm.

Even though you've been broken up for many years, do you still have those old angry feelings towards him? Listen to me. Don't be so narrow-minded."

Sabrina countered, "This is Lance, right? Funny, isn't it? Bettie's had her fair share of admirers over the years. Are you implying nobody's wanted her? It's been years since your breakup. Can't get over her, can you? Funny, in all our years of friendship, Bettie's never once brought up someone named Lance."

Lance squinted his eyes and gave Bettie a silent, intense Look.
