It was already midnight by the time the four friends completed their drinks party. Freen was passed out on Nam's couch and Tee and Kade left after bidding byes to Nam.

Nam really wanted to call Becky but she did not dare to, since she was not sure she would be able to hide the incident from Becky.

"Princess, are you really okay?" -- Irin asked tenderly after seeing Becky's swollen face on the video call. Her eyes red and puffy. Becky just hummed and Irin was sure that Becky was not okay.

"I wish I were there Bec... But you know about the schedule. It will, hopefully, be over by tomorrow evening and I will come to you right after that." -- Irin said apologetically and Becky gave her a tiny smile.

"It's not the news about Nop.. I am bothered by something else...." -- Becky said finally and Irin waited for her to continue.

"It's Freen.... She sounded different when she called. And she did not say anything about Nop! She .... I don't know .. She was silent all through the day.. She said she was busy and cancelled our dinner date as well....." -- Becky finally let her thoughts out.

"But Tee told me that they are going to meet in the evening!!" -- Irin cursed herself after blurting that out. She could see the way the expressions changed on Becky's face.

"May be Freen did not go there as well you know... May be it was just Nam and Kade with Tee.." -- Irin tried to be more convincing for Becky. But she could see that she failed. She desperately tried to change the topic and by sensing that Becky played along as well.

It was a hectic day for Becky as she had to do the dubbing for her movie and the launch event of her new movie in the evening. But what bothered her more was that she had to have a constant smile on her face and she had to dodge the questions from everyone regarding Nop's bail.

She did update her schedule to Freen in the morning itself before going to the studio. It was not read and she guessed that Freen might not be up yet.

The event venue was heavily crowded as usual and Becky was happy to see all her supporters. She was distracted slightly among the playful banters between Jeff and Mike. And was not ready for any personal questions and then...

"Miss. Armstrong, is it true that you are in a relationship with the CEO of Ninety Two, Miss. Freen Sarocha Chankimha?" -- A reporter asked and Becky could not reply for some minutes.

"Bec... You don't have to answer if you don't want to.." -- Mike whispered for her and Jeff also looked at her in concern.

"Would you like to comment on how do you feel after seeing her latest pictures with Faye?" -- The reporter was not ready to let go and Becky frowned. She did not understand about which pictures are they talking about.
