“Well… uhm… didn’t you already said that…” Tina tried to cover her self.

“Ooh… uhm, that was me… it kinda slip….” Alice said, putting her hand up like guilty child. “… sorry…” Alice mouthed it to Shane.

“No, that’s okay… I don’t mind…” Shane smiled, putting her hand on Alice’s leg.

Shane looked at Ed who was by now into a deep conversation between Dana and Jenny.

A few minutes later Helena and Bette appeared on the little stage that was put up in front of them. Helena started her speech on the fundraiser that they’re doing, selling the art pieces from the CAC and the total amount all goes to the charity for the disadvantage kids in California. As the two women on the stage continue to speak, Shane mind was more focused on the guy that was sitting a few tables behind her. Shane took a couple of glances now and then, her anger was rising within her in each second that passes by.

“… so ladies and gentlemen, have a look at all these art pieces that we’ve gathered here especially for all of you tonight… if you like em’ buy em’!” Bette said through the microphone, causing laughter’s from the crowds. “… it all goes into this charity… and it’s for a very good cause… so enjoy the night!” Bette said.

After the speech from Helena and Bette, all the people stood up to mingle and look at the art pieces that are hanging around the hall of the mansion. Bette and Helena start to proceed to our table.

“Shane, Michael Forester is here…” Ed whispered to Shane’s ear.

“Yeah I saw… what the hell did he say to you?” Shane whispered back.

“You know the usual bullcrap that comes out of his mouth…” Ed said.

Alice grabbed Shane’s arm, trying to get her attention. “Hey I’m gonna go check out some of the artworks with Lily okay… is that alright?”

“Yeah that’s fine… I’ll look for you in a sec…” Shane said to Alice, Alice went close to Shane and gave her peck on the lips, leaving a grinning Shane, She turned and faced Ed, who again just rolled his eyes.
