As I entered the lavishly decorated ballroom, the first person I saw was Kael, and it made me extremely nervous, even though I had expected to find him there. I had tried to prepare myself for this moment, but my emotions were so intense that my body trembled.

"Just pretend you didn't see him," Enrico whispered. "He doesn't even deserve a second glance."

"Who? I don't see anyone, actually."

I decided to follow Enrico's advice, as it was time to treat people with the same consideration I received from them. He chuckled at what I said, appreciating my attitude, and together, still holding hands, we made our way toward the center of the party.

Soon, we spotted Bruno Garcia, the team's second pilot and a close friend of Enrico. We approached him as he picked up a glass of expensive champagne that was being served.

"Look who it is, the most popular couple of the moment," Bruno commented, always playful.

"That's exactly what I want everyone to think," Enrico said, clearly pleased.
