Bab 451: I'm telling the truth.

Flashback…

In the midst of flashing lights and pulsating music, Christopher, Eddie, and Brad found themselves on the edge of exhilaration. They were exhausted and collapsed on an empty sofa. Their bodies were drenched in sweat, their breaths coming in ragged gasps, and their hearts racing at breakneck speeds.

"That was crazy!" exclaimed Eddie. "I haven't danced like that in a long time. Chris, do you remember the company party on the day you were named president of the company?" He placed his hand on his shoulder, a wistful smile playing on his lips. "We haven't danced like this since that night."

Christopher's bright smile faded as Eddie's remarks triggered memories he couldn't easily forget. The company party he mentioned had been a turning point in Christopher's life. It was the night he had proposed to Alison, and she had said yes. Now, Alison was no longer with him, leaving behind only fragments of cherished memories.
