Chapter 32: Where is Eddie?
Tomorrow is the 25th of December, the plan is to spend the day at the Beckett’s Christmas Family Party. According to Mary Alice, who calls me every single day to discuss wedding-related issues, her parents invite all of their relatives to a formal gathering that resembles more a gala than a normal family Christmas day. Sick of Mrs. Beckett’s snarky remarks about my simple and cheap outfits, I asked Mary Alice to help me find an outfit for the lavish event. She takes me to a tiny boutique I have never been to, filled with beautiful dresses from exclusive designers I have never heard of. I try on several dresses, they all look amazing. It is hard to pick just one and after much deliberation, I finally chose a red sleeveless A-line dress.
