Chapter 7 - Brianna Abandons Julian The Moment Her Credit Declines

Across town at an upscale Fifth Avenue lounge, Brianna slammed her platinum credit card onto the marble bar counter.
“I’m sorry, Ms. Kensington, but this card has been declined due to a security freeze,” the bartender stated politely.
Brianna scoffed, crossing her arms in irritation as she pulled out her secondary emergency business card instead.
“Try this one, it’s linked directly to the Vance family corporate sponsorship fund,” Brianna ordered impatiently.
The bartender swiped the second card, watching the terminal flash a harsh red error message across the screen.
“Declined as well, ma’am. All associated merchant accounts have been locked by federal receivership,” the bartender replied.
Panic flashed across Brianna’s face as she realized her entire lavish lifestyle had vanished into thin air instantly.
The socialite friends who had toasted her engagement to Julian just an hour ago suddenly avoided eye contact.
Brianna grabbed her designer handbag, rushing out into the rainy street without paying her exorbitant bar tab.
