She Flash-Married To His Rival

At the same time, just as Cynthia was about to look for Moira, she discovered from a close friend that Moira and Barclay had already left the party ten minutes earlier. Were they gone?

They had left so quickly?

Cynthia's mood visibly soured, prompting her friend to inquire, "Cynthia, what's troubling you? You seem rather downcast!"

Cynthia glanced at her friend. "I am a tad disheartened. How could Moira leave so abruptly?"

Her friend raised an eyebrow. "Are you perhaps overly attached to Moira?"

Her friend couldn't resist a reminder, "Hey, Cynthia, it seems like you and Moira might have a bit of a rivalry going on!"

"What rivalry? My family has already cut ties with the Covington family!"

Cynthia's friend hesitated, "Because of Moira?"

"Not entirely."

Cynthia waved her hand dismissively, her friend looking puzzled. "Cynthia, why are you so kind to Moira?"
