The two of them chatted for a while, but ultimately, neither of them thought of a way to resolve the situation.

In the end, Claudia decided to attend the party without Bennett. She didn't want to, but because she had accepted the invitation from Kristy rather arrogantly, she had to. She couldn't let herself lose face.

She would very Likely look like a fool when she showed up on her own. But what could she do?

She couldn't ask Bennett to come home just so that she wouldn't have to go to the party by herself. She couldn't bother him like that, could she?

Of course Claudia couldn't do such a thing, and she would rather be laughed at by Kristy and Anthony than ask anything of Bennett.

Early the next morning, Claudia got up and put on a facial mask to refresh and moisturize her face.

No matter what happened, she had to try her best. She couldn't be looked down upon by Kristy and Anthony.

Meanwhile, Kristy had started preparing for the engagement party at the break of dawn.

She was the first customer at the beauty salon today, and she didn't eat or drink anything until eleven o'clock in the morning. To make sure that she looked fabulous in her outfit for tonight, Kristy only had a few mouthfuls of food at noon.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Kristy had her makeup started. Sitting beside her and watching, Amya couldn't help asking, “Is Claudia attending your engagement party tonight by herself?"

Kristy raised her eyebrows proudly and answered, “Yes. She has no choice but to show up alone."

Even if Bennett rushed back to Linmarsh, Claudia would still go stag to the engagement party.

And tonight, Kristy had prepared a big surprise for Claudia.

Amya looked around and didn't see anyone else. She whispered in Kristy's ear, “Why are you smiling like that?"

Kristy didn't intend to hide it anymore and said, “I have contacted Miss Bryant."

"Who's Miss Bryant?"

“Kayla. The girl with whom Bennett was spotted entering a hotel a few days ago. The photo went viral, remember?"

Amya suddenly remembered and asked, “Do you really think this Kayla girl could keep him busy?"

Kristy said with confidence, "Yes. Her mother and Bennett's mother are bosom friends. When Kayla returned home this time, her mother had asked Bennett to take good care of her."

After a pause, she continued, "Do you think Bennett will Leave her alone if she meets an accident?"

Amya understood what she meant and said, “Oh, that’s genius.” Kristy snorted.

“I'll make sure that Claudia makes a fool of herself tonight."

After sneezing several times in a row, Claudia knitted her brows and murmured, "I wonder who's cursing me at this moment."

In the video call, Aurora snickered and said, “Who else can it be except for Kristy? Hey, are you sure you don't want me to accompany you to the party tonight?"
