~ Los Angeles, Ellie's villa ~
Brian entered the living room with two glasses of white wine.
He placed them on the table and sat next to Emma on the sofa.
Ever since the call from JoAnna, Emma didn't say a single word. She is staring into space and barely moving.
Brian didn't ask what happened. He heard everything while Emma spoke with JoAnna on the phone: four women who are interested in Charlie confronted Emma and spilled red wine on her dress. Emma is upset because Charlie paid for the dress and she does not know how to face him. And he heard Emma ask JoAnna several times not to tell Charlie what happened.
