Chapter 29 Angela felt a bit confused because she was already married . Why are you looking at me like that ? Even though youre married , you still have the right to have some fun . I noticed you havent been in the best spirits these past few days . Go relax a bit itll do you some good , Joseph advised sincerely . Unable to refuse his kind intentions , Angela reluctantly went into the dressing room . It was a professional makeup team that typically worked with celebrities . However … it seemed everyone would be styled into white swans . The rules for Josephs event were simple . It was essentially a masquerade , where everyones face would be disguised . Only their eyes would be visible to tell them apart . The room full of men and women would mingle , chat , and , if they felt a connection , they could exchange contact details . By the time her makeup was done , even Angela could barely recognize herself . There were a dozen or so women , and all of them were dressed identically . Could this event even be fun ? Slightly exasperated , Angela sat at the back of the room . She nibbled on some fruit and hoped that the night would end quickly . The main event had yet to start , but she already felt a bit drained . Come on , ladies . Gather around . Joseph came on stage , holding a raffle drum . Pick a number , and youll dance with the person who has the matching number . Angela didnt know whether to laugh or cry at this . She dragged her feet and was the last one to go up . By then , many couples were already dancing away in the dance area . Soft music filled the air , and the atmosphere was enchanting . Angela leaned closer to Joseph and whispered , Grandpa , maybe I should skip the raffle since Dexter is here . It wasnt that she feared that he would get upset ; she simply didnt feel like socializing . Joseph handed her a number himself . Here , take this and have some fun . The point is to make him a little jealous . Dont let Elena get the upper hand over you , silly girl . So , Angela reluctantly accepted the number 66 card and walked back to her seat . She planned to keep her number hidden and just sit quietly in the corner to enjoy the snacks . Not long after , Angela spotted a tall , slender figure . The woman had a graceful silhouette and looked vaguely familiar . Chapter 29 +25 BONUS Upon taking a closer look , she realized it was Elena . And judging by the way she was dancing , her partner might very well be Dexter Angela was amused at this . She had no intention of making an appearance . But then , the gentleman holding the number 66 card walked straight toward her . He showed the number on his card in his hand openly . Miss , may I see your card ? he asked in a soft , familiar voice . Angela froze for a moment and looked up into the mans eyes . It was Finn ! What was he doing here ? Finn looked at her with a bright , gentle smile . His eyes sparkled like twinkling stars in the night sky . Angela stood up and asked , What brings you here ? Did Grandpa invite you ? I started my own hospital and once saved Mr. Bamford Sr. by chance . Weve been close friends ever since , and we even arranged to go fishing together , Finn explained in a low voice . Shall we dance ? People are starting to look , he added , making a polite gesture of extending a dance invitation . Angela didnt refuse . She placed her hand gracefully into his , mirroring his refined posture . His hand was warm and steady . It gave off a sense of comfort that made one feel secure . Did Dexter give you trouble last time ? Finn asked tentatively as they moved in sync with the music . After their last encounter , it had been a while since they had seen each other . Its all fine now . Thinking about the incident made Angela feel annoyed all over again . Silence fell between them there was a strange , unspoken tension . If you ever need help , dont hesitate to contact me , Finn finally said softly after the long pause .
