70 Plans and Plots

Emma, feeling the weight of her friends‘ stares, firmly set Maryann’s extravagant gift box on the table.

She faced Jada and Bonnie with a look of exasperation. “Please, don’t look atlike that. I’m not

planning to jump into another relationship. I’ve just escaped one, and that’s enough for now.”

The idea of entangling herself with someone else, especially so soon after her divorce from Alex, was

unthinkable to her. She cherished her newfound independence–running her own business, making her

own decisions.

Bonnie, still holding the box, looked at Emma skeptically. “But with Maxwell’s photo and now this, don’t

you think it seems… a bit too coincidental?”

Emma sighed, weary of the insinuations. “Coincidental or not, it’s irrelevant. I’m focusing on my

career now.”

Maryann, having watched the exchange, intervened. “I understand, Emma. But, you know, these

She then produced two smaller, red velvet boxes from her bag and slid them across the table to Emma.

“These might be more to your liking–sexquisite rubies and a sapphire ring. They remindedof

you.”

Emma opened the boxes and was momentarily taken aback by the beauty of the jewels. Maryann

really did have an eye for fine things. The rubies glinted with a deep, captivating red, and the sapphire

ring was elegantly understated.

“Thank you, Maryann. They’re beautiful,” Emma said, her voice softening. She couldn’t deny Maryann’s

thoughtful gesture.

The conversation shifted as Jada broached a new topic. “So, the twins are coming back to town soon,

huh? York always had a thing for you back in school. Maybe now’s the chance to explore that?”

Emma chuckled at the suggestion. “Desmond and I are just old friends. Let’s not complicate things.”

Bonnie joined in, her tone playful. “Well, if you won’t consider Desmond, how about Alex again? With

all this buzz, it’s like the universe is pushing you two back together.”

Emma shook her head, amused yet firm. “No, Bonnie. Alex and I are over. That chapter of

The evening continued in a lighter vein, with the friends reminiscing about old times and celebrating

Maryann’s recent film success. But as they were leaving, an unexpected turn of events occurred. A

paparazzo snapped a photo of Bonnie and Maryann leaving together, sparking rumors of them living

together.

The next day, the story exploded online. Jada showed Emma the viral post, and they both shared a

resigned chuckle. “Bonnie’s going to have a field day with this,” Emma remarked, half–amused, half-

Tians and Plots

Meanwhile, Lillian, fuming over the rumors and her thwarted showbiz dreams, stormed into her mother

Michelle’s room. “Mom, have you seen this? Emma’s everywhere! And now Maryann too?”

Michelle, equally flustered, nodded. “I saw, Lillian. It’s all very convenient for Emma,

isn’t it?”

Lillian, pacing the room, was a bundle of nerves. “I’m sick of being sidelined! Emma and now

Maryann… They’re taking over everything!”

Michelle, trying to calm her daughter, suggested, “Maybe we can use this situation to our advantage.

Let’s plan something at the charity gala Emma is attending. It could be our chance to turn the tables.”

Lillian stopped pacing, her eyes lighting up with a mixture of anger and determination. “Yes, let’s show

them. Emma won’t know what hit her.”

As they plotted, the dynamics of their relationships with Emma and the Smirnoffs family cto the

fore, revealing a tangled web of emotions, rivalries, and unspoken desires. The charity gala was

shaping up to be more than just a social event–it was becoming the stage for a dramatic showdown.
