They were a sight to behold-Judson in a tailored black tuxedo and Nancy in a sleek black evening gown. They looked like they had stepped right out of a classic Hollywood movie, the perfect couple in matching outfits. Whispers spread like wildfire among the guests.
"Isn't that the designer Lena? Who's the handsguy with her?" "Aren't Lena and Mr. Sandro supposed to be an item? Did we get it wrong?" Before the murmurs could settle, Lenard, sporting a crisp white suit and a slicked-back hairstyle, muscled his way through the crowd. He tried for a sophisticated look, but his candid demeanor quickly gave him away. "Nancy, did you hear that Cyrus is here too? Did you bring Judson just to stake your claim?" Nancy arched an eyebrow. "What?" Cyrus, here? The very thought made her cringe, and Judson wore a look of disdain.
Just then, a ripple of excitement passed through the crowd.
"The Hernandez family showed up, can you believe it? Weren't they blacklisted by Evergreen Global?" "Maybe they're trying to sneak in. Otherwise, why just send Sarah and her brother? And isn't that Cyrus with them?" "Sure is. He's one of the big shots from Sunhaven, but it's a mystery why he's aligned with the Hernandezes. Now they're both on Evergreen's bad side." Nancy instinctively turned to see the newcomers entering the room. It was indeed Cyrus with Sarah and her brother.

Neil, standing beside him, couldn't help but comment, "Mr. Ferguson, why did Mr. Buchanan let them in? He and Cyrus are clearly..." "Rivals, you mean?" Michael smirked. "I don't know what Judson's gis, but he's definitely up to something. Let's see how this plays out." Michael gestured to Neil. "Chere, I need you to handle something..." Downstairs, oblivious to the upstairs scheming, Cyrus clenched his fists, trying to catch a glimpse of Nancy past Judson.
"Nancy, I just want a minute to talk. It's about the city fireworks..."
Nancy's eyes hardened with a sardonic smile. "I have no interest in disqussing that with you."
Lenard, clueless about the 'city fireworks,' sensed the and played along. Stop bringing up old stuff with Nancy, it's gross." He stood firm beside Judson, shielding Nancy.
Nancy couldn't help but think how blind she'd been to bave chosen a man like cyrus before.
