CHAPTER 332: THE ROMANTIC DATE

Lorenzo woke up with a brutal hangover from last night's heavy drinking. As soon as morning broke, he grabbed his keys and bolted out of the resort, leaving everyone else behind. Brandon and Nelly followed suit, packing up and departing shortly after. Meanwhile, Stanley, burdened with guilt, couldn't face anyone. He stayed put at the resort after Brandon and Nelly left, spending the entire day lost in thought, standing by the pool, staring into space. On the other side of the resort, Lauretta was catching up with Ryan. They spent the day together, talking and laughing, thoroughly enjoying each other's company. Aware that Stanley was still around, Lauretta eventually excused herself to check on him. She found him by the pool, lost in his thoughts. Calling out to him snapped him back to reality. She approached him and invited him to join them for dinner, but he declined, insisting he wasn't hungry. Despite her efforts to persuade him, Lauretta eventually gave up and left him to himself.
