Adrian heard Farrah’s words and smirked, feeling amused as he finished his drink. This woman was quite something, already acting like she was the person in charge, deciding who would stay and who would “Farrah, thank you for calling me out. I’ll change, I promise. I’ll treat Riley better,” Ryan assured Farrah. “I’m working hard for a better life for her and our child. It’s not easy climbing the corporate ladder. Please, jus let me off the hook tonight.”

Farrah’s tone softened as she looked him over. “Remember your wedding vows. Think about everything you’ve been through together just to get where you are when you have a moment.”

As their mutual friend, she genuinely wanted them to be happy.

“Of course,” Ryan replied, his back drenched in sweat. He flashed a placating smile before quickly walking

away.

Farrah did not pursue him further as she had already said her piece. After Ryan left, she found herself locking eyes with Adrian, who was staring at her intently from a few yards away. It was clear he had heard everything.

At that moment, Adrian’s hawk–like gaze turned toward the scene. As the expressionless server neared her, Farrah sensed danger. Just as the server reached out, Farrah quickly ducked and sidestepped.

As a result, the server pushed at empty air. Her force was too strong, and the momentum caused her to lose balance. She screamed as she fell heavily into the pool, the tray clattering as water splashed everywhere, even drenching Farrah.

Germaine was stunned and hissed under her breath, “Idiot!”

Before Adrian could react, Mark rushed over and steadied Farrah. “Fay, are you alright?” he asked, concern etched on his face.
