Ariana’s head snapped up, but all she could see was the mask’s cold facade. It couldn’t possibly be Theodore.
That much was crystal clear to Ariana.
Aswirl of complex thoughts surged through her mind. Slowly, she averted her gaze, skimming over his alluring Adam's apple, and redirected her attention elsewhere.
As the music reached its conclusion, the applause of the crowd below snapped Ariana back to reality. She mustered a composed smile, concealing the disappointment that had taken root within her.
In that instant, a low, raspy voice reached her ears, “Your foot’s on mine.”
Startled, Ariana glanced down, realizing that her right foot had inadvertently Landed on his leather shoe.
“It's my fault, I’m sorry.” She quickly apologized, hastily retracting her foot. However, in her haste, she almost tripped over her skirt.
Thankfully, he held onto her hand and steadied her.
“Thank you.” Ariana patted her chest, conveying her gratitude, before the two of them bowed in unison to the applauding audience.

Outside the venue, Sadie’s gaze was locked on the woman on stage, her grip on her glass threatening to shatter it. It felt like she was losing her mind. Ever since crossing paths with
Ariana, she had become overly paranoid. Now, even a random woman had her suspecting it was Ariana.
To make matters worse, this woman had danced the opening dance with
Holden. Jealousy was gnawing at Sadie’s heart, driving her close to madness.
Sadie’s glare was fixed on the figure on stage. She turned to leave, her mind consumed by fury.
Unaware of the Little boy playing behind her, Melon, she collided with him head-on, almost as if she’d kicked him.
The glass in her grasp sloped in the process, the drink staining her skirt.
Unable to feign composure any Longer, Sadie’s facade crumbled. Already infuriated, she redirected her anger toward the child and scolded him vehemently, “Can’t you watch where you're going? Are you blind?!”
Melon felt unjustly scolded. He was the one who had been bumped into, yet he dutifully apologized, “I’m sorry.”
However, Sadie had seemingly found an outlet for her frustration and persisted, “Look at my dress now. What are you going to do to make up for it? Kids these days have no manners whatsoever.”
Her disdain for children was evident in her brusque attitude. Observing
Melon’s continued silence, she taunted, “Never mind, it's clear you're an ill-mannered child brought here by someone equally clueless. Your parents must be morons to allow you to run around at a formal event like this.”
