By uttering such words, Chris threw his friend into confusion.
" What are you talking about man ? "
John said as he turned around. He did a double take on the scene, then looked back at Chris who was awkwardly tightening his eyes trying to recognize Edward's partner from afar. He talked as he started moving closer to them in an attempt to have a better view.
" Damn! I can't tell who she is from such a distance. Come John, let's move closer to them "
John seemed unhappy with what he saw, but a man like him would never ruin his image by jumping into rushed conclusions just because of his friend's assumptions. Even though it seemed like Edward's fault, John had to keep his calmness and composure in front of the big shots in town, at least until figuring out the truth. Therefore, and with confident steps, he walked beside Chris into a nearer spot.
But the two old friends were not the only ones who noticed their rival's arrival.
Anna was thrilled when Ed showed up, and with no hesitation, she hurried towards him.
Meanwhile, Edward and Mona were talking about how crowded the party was.
" there are so many guests. It seems like a lot of important people were invited. Do you recognize any of them Ed ? "
Edward said with eyes fixed on the entrance door.
" They are probably famous business partners and wealthy friends. That's the kind of people Anna's mother would invite into such a party "
Mona lifted her head and gazed at Ed's perfectly shaped face features while he did not even bother to look at her as he answered her question.
Feeling ignored, she spoke again.
" Aren't you going to stop looking at the door? "
" No. My beloved one is going to be here at any moment, and you know that I'll never be interested in anyone else but her "
Mona spaced out for a moment then bitterly smiled. Deep down, and just like many other women who never experienced the feeling of being loved back, she envied Joleen for having a man like Edward. She wished the man she loved was as loyal and loving as her little cousin.
" Alright then, suit yourself lover boy "
Anna suddenly popped out in Mona's face and enthusiastically called Edward's name.
" Edward ! "
Mona was startled by Anna who came out of the blue so she unconsciously clung into Ed's arm.

" Holy mother of earth ! "
Anna glared at their interlocking arms then looked at Mona with despise. She drew a fake smile on her face then talked to her in an arrogant, yet calm tone.
" And who are you? I don't remember seeing you before. And I certainly wouldn't invite someone like you to my party "
Mona was surprised by Anna's rudeness. She felt cornered and embarrassed because of the venomous words of the spoiled birthday girl.
On the other side, Edward was deliberately avoiding Anna, so he was just observing the situation silently. However, he had to interfere when Anna crossed lines.
