Throw them out?!

Did she go too far?

Zaria's frank confession of affection then echoed in her mind, causing Claudia's hand to tremble. She nearly lost grip on her phone. Observing her unusual behavior, Bennett inquired, "Is something wrong?" Claudia shot a glance at him, responding, “Miss Santiago has sent me a message of apology.”

"What?"

“She informed me that she commanded the security guards to eject the two women from her party."

Bennett declared, "She has done the right thing."

Feeling a sense of discomfort, Claudia questioned, "Isn't that overly cruel?”

After all, they were part of the same glamorous circle of celebrities. Claudia wasn't devoid of compassion, but having the guests tossed out by security would surely make headlines on Twitter.

“Have they ever pondered how much their bullying might wound you?"

"Well," she hesitated, a softness in her voice revealing her inherent kindness.

Her phone lit up again. Claudia's eyes fell to her screen, discovering that the new message wasn't from Zaria.

Relief washed over her as she opened the message from Aurora.

“Honey, what unfolded tonight? I heard Miss Santiago ejected two individuals from the banquet hall on your behalf!"

Aurora attached a video with her words.

With curiosity, Claudia tapped the video, watching for a brief moment before she responded, “Those two were being mean to me."

Aurora said, "Miss Santiago became furious and punished them for your sake then?" Tell me. Does she hold affection for you?"

Claudia said, “Enough. It frightens me!"

Aurora replied, Claudia said, “Zaria confessed her affection for me!"

"Something's off. What scares you?"

Aurora was taken aback.

Could it be true?

Aurora replied, "My, you must be truly captivating!"

Claudia was at a Loss for words.

No matter how alluring she might be, she wasn't gay and had no idea how to handle the situation!
