Chapter 34

Rachel POV

As we stepped into the room, We were enveloped in a warm, festive atmosphere. The room was aglow with twinkling lights and vibrant decorations, and the air was filled with the sweet scent of balloons and the hum of lively chatter.

Aderemi's hand gently guided me forward, and as we made our way through the crowded room, I couldn't help but feel a thrill of excitement even though I wasn't the one who would be surprised. The guests parted to make way for us, their faces breaking into wide smiles as they caught sight of us.

I had anticipated feeling like an outsider at this event, but surprisingly, I felt a sense of belonging among the guests. Aderemi led me to a vacant seat, and we sat down together, side by side.
