Sean couldn't help but curse to himself, "What the hell!" as he looked at Katherine, who was in a
crimson dress, not far away from him.
"What the hell?"
Jacob heard Sean and repeated his words as Charles raised his brows beside Sean.
"Katherine asked nothing from Zack,’ Sean blurted out.
Charles burst out laughing.
"Who said that? I don't believe that she didn't ask for money.Where did she get the money for the
reservation then? This party is extravagant! The wine was probably worth at least three million.Do you
think Katherine alone could afford it?"
Sean was skeptical, but he replied, "Zack directly told me just today."
For a brief moment, Charles was stunned.
"I can't believe it; he said.Katherine couldn't also believe what she saw.When she went to the bar, she
didn't expect Zack's friends to be there.She knew that they were not the typical friends that he
had.Alice handed her a cocktail after noticing that she was distracted.
"Can you tell me what you're doing? Why do you have a bitter look? Don't tell me you're having second
thoughts about the divorce?" She asked.
Katherine snapped out from her distractions and rolled her eyes.
"I do regret coming to this bar just to really squander my money."
Katherine was wealthy, but she didn't spend her money too much.
Fortunately, this was the first and only time she had ever divorced.
Even the world’s richest squanders so much money in one night, and he has to be heartbroken.
Alice sat down next to her and tapped Katherine on the shoulder, "So, what exactly were you thinking?
Remembering all the sweet and bitter memories?"
Katherine took a sip on her drink, and it was pretty tasty.
She couldn't stop herself from taking another one.
"Go in the direction of eight o'clock and observe who were the men seated there,’ she said to Alice.
Alice didn't understand, but the wine in her hand nearly spilled when she turned her head saw what
Katherine was talking about.
"What a lucky day you have there, Katherine!"
Alice exclaimed.
‘’I'm also curious as to what kind of luck I have today’’ Katherine said as she shrugged her shoulders.
Katherine was celebrating her divorce and a new beginning, but there she was in a bar, sipping a
cocktail in the corner, looking entirely down and distracted.
Katherine was not far away from where Zack's childhood friends were seated.
She had considered it and realized that she couldn't allow others to think of her as a joke.
Katherine stood up after taking a drink of the cocktail in her hand.
"Want to dance?" She asked Alice.
Alice cocked her head.
"It's been a long time since we've danced, hasn't it?"
"Yes, that's true,’ Katherine answered as Alice smiled.
"Let's go, and we're going to take over the entire place tonight!" Alice exclaimed.
Alice's energy hiked up.
She then dragged Katherine to the DJ and took the microphone, "Hello everyone, and good evening!
Let me introduce tonight's star, my rich and good friend Katherine.However, that was just not the
purpose of tonight's celebration.Today, as every one of us could see, she will give us an unforgettable
show to start her new life! Woohoo!"
Katherine thought it was humiliating at first, but Alice, a shining star, was confident, so she just threw
her shyness away.
Alice was speechless in front of the DJ.
However, the stage lights had changed, and people dancing on it had voluntarily stepped out as well.
On the glittering platform, it was just two of them who were standing.
Katherine was oddly excited amid the brilliant lights as several steel pipes hung down from the ceiling.
Katherine had kept her true self from Zack when she married him and tried to look delicate as possible,
but she had never forgotten what kind of a woman she was.
Katherine never needed other people's sympathy or pity.
She likes to be a very aggressive person and for the people to submit to her! Katherine glanced at Alice
as the music began to play.
The two of them had learned this dance together and even joined Alice on her talent show back then.
Katherine later became interested in pole dancing.
Whenever Alice applies for any lessons, she also applies with Katherine.
They had been friends for twenty years, and they also had an unspoken agreement from around seven
to eight years of dancing.
Even if they hadn't practiced beforehand, they would always be in sync.
On stage, both of them appeared to be gripping on the pole in one hand as they went around it.
Each stride was stunning and seductive.
Their two white delicate fingers touched the arms of each other.
The crowd below the stage went in a frenzy.
They were in black and red outfits.
They are now entangled with each other.
Helen, who had just hung up her phone, had nearly fainted when she saw what Alice and Katherine
were doing.
‘Alice, had you forgotten that you are now a star?’ Helen silently thought to herself.
Helen dashed to the side of the stage and called Alice, "Alice! Are you out of your mind?"
Alice was slightly drunk when she realized that she was no longer in the past.
She had sobered up and felt afraid as soon as her manager roared at her.
On the other hand, Katherine was standing off to the side and had entirely indulged herself in dancing.
Her long, delicate white legs had already wrapped themselves around the pole.
When she opened her eyes, she was surprised to discover an unexpected guest approaching the
stage.
Alice lifted her eyebrows and merely closed her mouth to sneak off the stage, leaving Katherine alone.
Katherine wore a red dress and looked even more stunning on stage.
Even though some people were perplexed when Alice exited the scene, they still could see that the
woman in the red dress was still performing, so they didn’t ask and disrupt her performance.
When Zack entered in, he saw the scene on the stage.
The woman, who was once frail and delicate, was now pole dancing like a snake.
Katherine effortlessly ascended on the pole and slid down.
Her long legs eventually stepped on the ground while her red dress fluttered.
She softly pressed against the pole at the end of her performance.
Katherine let go of her grip on the pole as she panted slightly.
She was about to take a step down when she noticed Zack, who was staring up at her from a distance.
The man in a suit below Katherine on stage, who was separated from her by more than three meters,
had a frigid expression on his face.
His eyes were strained.
Katherine barely gave him a fleeting glance before returning her gaze to the audience.
"Amazing! I love your shape and performance so much!" Alice said to Katherine.
Katherine tapped her forehead as she reached out to accept the drink from Alice.
"Don't think that I'll forgive you for leaving me alone at the stage!"
"I'm sorry! I didn't mean to!" Alice said.
Helen had forced Alice to look like an aloof person as her image in the industry, even though she was a
person who was fun to be with.
For so many years, Katherine had to adore her without forgetting her real character.
"Don't you dare hug me!" Katherine warned.
Katherine shoved Alice away from her.
When she realized that Alice was ready to hug her again, she angrily said, "You're sweating! Stop
clinging to me!"
Alice grinned and whispered in her ear.
"Zack was here."
"I know,’ Katherine replied.
Katherine sipped her drink as she lowered her head.
"When did you find out that he was here?" Alice asked.
Katherine smiled and answered Alice, but she was interrupted by a cold male voice behind her.
"Come out.We're going to talk.”
