Genevieve gave Justin a soft smile. “Mrs. Jenson wasn’t feeling too great, so I walked her over.”
“Thanks, Ms. Lichtenstein.”
Justin’s impression of Genevieve instantly improved.
Russell hurried up, pulling Blair into his arms, his voice full of worry. “Darling, are you okay? Why are you suddenly not feeling well? Did the food here upset your stomach?”
“I’m fine. I just… ran into Tilda in the restroom.”
After thinking for a bit, Blair decided it was better to say it out loud.
Russell stiffened. “What?! Tilda? So you-”
Before he could ask for details, the lights dropped again.
The crowd began whispering.
“What’s going on? Another show?”

But Theo, the boss‘ son, kept backing Tilda up, and she insisted on playing the piano.
The manager had no choice but to let it happen.
If it had just been her, he could’ve refused. But with Theo giving the order, he didn’t dare.
If something failed, Theo would take the blame.
But if the manager upset Theo, and Theo tattled to the chairman, his career would be over.
