Meanwhile…
The bachelor's party had a pool party theme and was held in a penthouse in one of the most popular buildings in Anteca for such occasions. Even before Penny and Hugo reached the penthouse, they had encountered quite a few people along the way.
Hugo didn't seem to know the people they were bumping into, but Penny recognized a few familiar faces. Not that she knew them personally, but if someone's face was often in the news, she had no choice but to be familiar with it. After all, the soon-to-be groom was a well-respected basketball player in the major league. So, it was no surprise that his guests for this bachelor party were a mix of all genders.
"Keep close to me," Hugo said, tilting his head back slightly to whisper to her.
Penny raised her brows and glanced at him. "I won't wander off."
"I know, but you might get snatched," he reasoned. "My little sister is such a steal that I'm afraid they'd be in trouble."
