“Thank you, Amalia," Claudia said.

"You're welcome,

With that, their conversation ended. Claudia exited the chat window and clicked on the photo Aurora had sent.

It was a photo of an elegantly decorated restaurant that had recently gained huge popularity.

“Let's go here!" Aurora said.

Claudia agreed without hesitation, "Sure! Are you free on Saturday?"

On the other end of the line, Aurora arched an eyebrow as she typed a response.

"Don't you want to spend the weekend with Mr. Dreskin? Couples get married and have children. Right now, you and your husband should be focusing on having your first child.

Blood rushed to Claudia's cheeks upon reading Aurora's message.

"Fine. I won't go with you

Aurora's response was immediate.

“That's not what I meant! Spending time with your husband is important, but so is spending time with your best friend. Cece, you have to give equal time to both of us."

Claudia let out an angry huff.

“I see. So, I'll come with you on Saturday, and then I'll spend time with Bennett on Sunday. Is that good enough for you?"

Aurora replied, “Yes, but you don't have to tell me what might happen on Sunday.

Claudia sent out a string of dots.

She was literally at a loss for words.

The night had fallen,

Mathews stepped out of the shower to find his phone buzzing on the table. He arched an eyebrow in question before walking over to it and grabbing it.

After checking the caller ID, he accepted the call, put the call on speaker, and placed the phone on the desk, asking, “What's up?"

It was his agent Miguel who called.

The man sounded like he was about to explode in anger as he snarled, “What the hell is wrong with you? Why did you tell the Secret Journey producers that you wouldn't appear on their show unless Claudia was also invited?

Have you lost your mind, Mathews? She's married! She's the wife of the CEO of the Segarine Group! Didn't you see the trending topic on Twitter yesterday?

You've maintained a spotless image and a genuine commitment to music for many years. Why are you suddenly acting irrationally and doing things that don't make sense?"
