"Enough! Look at what a mess this has gotten into, and you're still blaming others! If you hadn't spread that photo in the first place, we wouldn't be in this mess, would we? You provoke her, then complain about her setting you up? Keira, what's gotten into you?" Lance said sternly, his gaze on Keira alien and cold.
Keira felt overwhelmed. The previous negative comments, no matter how harsh, were her own issues. She could handle Lance with excuses of rumors and bad reviews in the entertainment industry.
But now, Lance knew she wasn't as friendly with Chloe as she seemed. All those words she had said about Chloe had turned into lies.
"Lance, I just...” Keira bit her lip, unable to form a full sentence.
Lance closed his eyes and took a deep breath, finally pulling his hand back. He didn't look at Keira again and walked away alone.
Keira's face went pale instantly, "Lance, Lance, where are you going?"
The venue was thrown into chaos.
"Lance, what the hell are you doing?!" Seeing the engagement party about to fall apart, Carolina blocked Lance's path with a stern face.
But Lance just looked at her calmly, "Do you think this engagement party can continue? Don't you think it's embarrassing?"
Carolina was speechless. "So you're just going to leave Keira here by herself?"
Lance took a deep breath, "I just need some alone time."
He walked past Carolina and left the party under the watchful eyes of everyone.
