"That you don't have the slightest interest in me...,"
"Isn't that a good thing? They would have been a war between me and Charlie if I had feelings for you," Clifford said. He felt like giving himself a tight slap when he saw Gabrielle's once happy expression took 180 degrees turn at the mention of Charlie's name.
Before Clifford could apologise the voice of the MC talking disrupted their conversation. They listened as the MC called Abigail to the stage to formally welcome everyone to the party.
"Hello ladies and gentlemen, I am so happy to welcome you to my 24th birthday party," Abigail standing on the stage said smiling brightly. At the moment she was now wearing a long sleeveless red dress in which the front was opened down to her lower abdomen. Because of the slit in the upper side of the dress, her breast was slightly exposed. Everyone complimented that she looked better in this dress than the previous one.
