Before the celebration kicked off, Bettie, along with her assistant, had already arrived at the dressing room.
The room was shared by several celebrities, with two makeup artists arriving early to set up their equipment.
Being familiar faces in the industry, Bettie engaged in light conversation while organizing her makeup tools.
When the celebrity arrived, Bettie applied the makeup, and afterward, the celebrity left to prepare for her performance.
Bettie and her assistant then snuck off to the back of the hall to catch the show from the rear seats, where it was less crowded.
As the show unfolded, capturing Betties full attention, she suddenly noticed someone taking a seat next to her. She caught a whiff of a subtle scent and, from the corner of her eye, saw a man in a crisp suit sitting beside her, notable for his height.
However, Bettie couldnt see his face clearly. Curiosity got the better of her, and she stole a glance at her new neighbor, only to avert her gaze immediately afterward.
Bettie felt a bit of bad luck. Had she known it earlier, she might have chosen not to look his way at all.

Whats that look on your face? Lance raised his eyebrows.
Youre really getting on my nerves, Bettie shot back.
At their conversation, Betties assistant turned to look at Lance. It seemed every time Bettie was around, Lance would show up. Lance never did much besides bicker with Bettie. It seemed Bettie was used to it.
Lance revealed, Your father asked me to come here.
Bettie was taken aback. She scoffed. Why dont you just call him dad since you do as he said like a lost puppy?
I might not call him dad, but Im open to him being my father-in- law, Lance replied with a serious tone.
fck off! Bettie snapped. Stop spouting nonsense. Go find your girlfriend.
ALL of a sudden, the news of Tyrones child with Keilani reaching five crossed Betties mind, rendering her wondering about Lances knowledge about this. Still wrongly assuming Keilani was Lances girlfriend, Bettie found amusement in Lance being cuckolded.
Bettie failed to stifle her chuckle.

I dont have a girlfriend. Why are you laughing? Lance raised his eyebrow.
Nothing at all. Bettie tried to contain her laughter, but her eyes crinkled, showing efforts to fight the urge to Laugh out loud.
Lance couldnt get the cause of her sudden laughing and quickly changed the subject. Some food stalls are close by. A drive from here will only take a few minutes. Want to join me? Word had it that there are a bunch of tasty snacks.
Centenia was indeed a bustling city, known for its unique snacks and beverages. The shopping malls and food stalls were always crowded.
Feeling a bit hungry, Bettie turned to her assistant and asked, Do you want to go there?
Betties assistant glanced at Lance subconsciously, feeling the silent threat and hints. The assistant replied, No I dont feel like go there.
Well, I guess I wont go either. Bettie didnt want to go there without her assistant, knowing Lance likely insisted on tagging along.
