The pressure from Nash, Ben and Jamie quickly silenced any dissent. No one dared to say another word.

Ben had initially planned the banquet as a way to celebrate Jamie and let everyone see how proud he was of her. Yet, it had unexpectedly turned into fodder for rumors involving him and Nash.

Ben felt genuinely apologetic toward Nash. "I'm really sorry. I didn't expect people to come up with such bizarre ideas."
