Chapter 19 The Fiance

• Julia, being the veteran actor she was, couldn't let the birthday party remain tense like this. She adjusted her emotions and reached out to take Hazel's hand. "Hazel, we're sorry…"
• Now that she had admitted to her mistake and apologized, Hazel would face intense criticism again if she didn't give Julia an out. However, too bad for Julia, Hazel knew all too well what she was up to. While Julia wanted to continue the play, she would tear the stage apart.
• Thus, she speedily withdrew her hand. "It's all my fault that everyone's now upset. You guys have fun; I'll see my way out."
