"Why, what is the matter?" Daniella discovered Lilian having fun with Paloma's hairdresser. Jessie was homosexual, yet he preferred to dress up as a ninja for dinner.

"Marcus is here; why didn't you inform me of his invitation?" Lilian was challenged regarding the guest list.

She recalled everyone's name on the list for many days while it was with her, and she was certain Daniella's ex-husband was not invited. "Are you sure you believe him?" Perhaps the gentleman was brazen enough to crash her mother's birthday party!

"He informed me that he and his buddy, Mr Ortega, had been invited." Daniella was aware of Lilian's interest in Mr Ortega as a result of the man's dubious relationship with Paloma.

Lilian felt terrible for Daniella, and now that they were sisters, she would do whatever to assist her with the charade she began. "Don't worry; I'll come up with something, all right?" Daniella was reassured.

"I appreciate it, Lil. "I'm perplexed and terrified that they'll discover he's still alive," she explained.

"Relax, Ella. Everything will be OK," Lilian assured herself as she excused herself to speak with Jessie, who was also the event's planner.

Next the photo shoot, Jessie went on to say that everyone wearing the ninja costume would remain in it for the remainder of the event and that a new set of costumes will be issued the following morning.

When Daniella heard the announcement, she wanted to reprimand Lilian for wearing the ninja outfit. She was, nevertheless, thankful for Lilian's assistance, despite the fact that her comfort wasC0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

jeopardized. She surveyed the crowd for Marcus, and when their gazes locked, she averted her gaze and feigned not to see him.

"Are you looking for me?" Marcus snuck away after catching her searching for him and found a way to be with her without startling anybody, including Ortega, who was getting intimate with one of Paloma's guests.

Daniella was taken aback when she heard him talk too loudly near her ears. "Of course not," she stated categorically in response to his assertion that she was seeking for him. "I just wanted to ensure that you wouldn't create any disruption on Paloma's birthday." As she stated.

"I will not. But I don't see why you're so upset by my presence, when we're not the first couple to break up, and this was simply a marriage for your convenience," he underlined the word "your" before convenience to convey to the woman that he was the victim, not her.

"Because they were completely unaware of the annulment!" She spoke the truth to him.

"I see. "Hmmm, so they won't complain if I spend the night in your room," he taunted her. Daniella was fearful that her deception would be discovered and he would exploit it.

"Indeed you will! In any case, your presence will no longer be an issue. Jessie stated, "You must wear the outfit the entire time you are here." She reminded him about the proclamation made following the photo shoot.

"How long until?" He inquired, since the garment was scratchy and very tight.

As a result, he did not hear the announcement. To be sure, she would be more than happy to inform him. "Until the celebration is finished," she stated emphatically.

He couldn't believe Daniella had ensured that no one would ever see his face while he was present. He walked away angry and fled before he could do anything they would regret later. He'd prefer

sleep than squander his time guzzling drinks or playing pool. Daniella had destroyed his mood.

"It's still too early for Marcus to sleep," Ortega replied when he spotted him. "How about you join us?"

"I'm exhausted, Ortega. You've got your key, correct?" Marcus intended to bolt the door later because he feared Daniella might commit murder. Her burning eyes communicated to him that she was enraged to see him.

"Thank you, but I'll see you later in Suzette's room." Ortega said that he was going to be bedded tonight by the lovely brunette with whom he had been intimate since supper.

"Ortega, kindly pause." Marcus approached Ortega after he had ceased walking. "I'm hoping you don't commit any scandalous acts tonight. Respect your elders, friend." He said it gently, but Ortega was well acquainted with him, and it was enough to dampen his enthusiasm for the woman named Suzette.

Ortega was in a nasty mood following Marcus's instruction to respect Paloma's house, and he was perplexed as to why he cared so much about it. They were only visitors, and he had no right to reprimand him. He desired rebellion but reconsidered. Marcus is a man who would prefer behave than risk his head.

His head hung down as he descended the stairs to the gaming room, where the majority of the guys were wasting time before retiring for the night, when a lady dressed in a geisha costume dashed towards him. She was in such a rush that she missed him, but he picked up on the scent of her perfume and it was oddly familiar to his senses. He came to a halt in the middle of the steps and gazed in her direction. Could it be that the woman, like him, was a VIP guest?

Something about the geisha drew his interest, and he returned upstairs and attempted to track her down, but he was unsuccessful. He wasn't even aware of the sound of a neighboring door closing.

Was she a specter? He trembled at the prospect of the home being pursued and decided, like Marcus, to simply sleep.

As he proceeded down the corridor to his room, the light bulb flickered on and off, creating an unearthly atmosphere. Ortega desired to flee, but what if he was seen? He would become a laughingstock in his field of business if it was revealed that he was afraid of ghosts. He was nearly there when he caught a peek of the geisha's skirt and then heard her chuckle. Her voice sounded as smooth as cotton, or as if she came from beneath the earth. "Marcus!" he yelled out as he attempted to open the door.
