"Yep, you girls can. Why haven't you girls done that? Moreover, I don't want to stress you girls. You are tired and the same goes for Matilda. It going to be very stressful for the both of you." "Nana, met Ole Miss, your stylist for the occasion. She is one of the best in Newyork City. She is my college friend. The other one is Mrs. Rs, she is a designer and the other are her assistants."

Evelyn Vance’s harsh, arrogant expression softened into a look of genuine affection the second her eyes landed on her granddaughter. She immediately dropped her expensive leather handbag onto the floor, dropping down to one knee to catch Tania in a warm, tight embrace. “Oh, my sweet little princess!” Evelyn murmured, burying her face into my daughter's soft hair, holding her close for a long, quiet moment. She pulled back slightly, smoothing Tania’s dark curls away from her forehead. “How are you, my baby? How have you been?”

She stepped back, trembling. "Where is she?" Logan’s voice was a low vibration that made the glass in the foyer rattle. Inside, Evelyn was reclined on a velvet chaise, delicately painting her nails while a broadcast of the High-Caste ball played on the screen. She was humming a light, airy tune, looking entirely at peace.

To her, it was a beautiful evening for a celebration.

I hold my water bottle up and shake my head, “I’m good. Thanks for asking.” “Great. It’s been a while since we last saw each other. How have you been?” Eva asks as she picks the overstuffed comfy chair in her office. She tucks her legs under her and picks up the notepad and pencil on the side table. I don’t know many people who still use a pencil over a pen these days, but that’s Eva.

She said and gave Evelyn a sweet smile. Evelyn Forrester. Her ex-best friend from high school who randomly decided one day that Elizabeth would be her rival in everything. Elizabeth was still not sure how they became friends, as they have nothing in common except being heirs from affluent households. Where Elizabeth loved fashion and was hardworking and independent, Evelyn was just a socialite who lived off her parent’s wealth.

I said, and turned directly to Cade to see her reaction. “It’s a pleasure to meet you dear. Weston phoned yesterday to say he not only met his mate, but she was an investigative journalist! What are the odds, so few females have the balls for this line of work and even less are actually good at it,” Evelyn said, giggling like a little girl. Cade was smiling but quite obviously star struck. Please … please be happy. Please be happy.

“First, we have the honor of hearing from the maid of honor, Sophie Steele.” Sophie stood, smoothing the hem of her dress, clearing her throat dramatically. She smiled at the couple, then at the audience, a mischievous glint in her eye. “Ladies and gentlemen,” she began, voice ringing clearly, “I have known Evelyn for… well, for long enough to know that she’s never been late to anything—except, perhaps, the last time she decided to adopt a dog without telling anyone. But today, she’s right on time. Perfectly on time.” A few chuckles rippled through the crowd.

CHAPTER TWO Growing up wasn’t quite glamorous or exciting for Ava, she had a father who was very strict and often abusive and a mother who was just the opposite. She was loving, caring, patient, and understanding. She had other siblings who were all male. Childhood wasn’t all fun-filled though she had a fair share of it, thank God for next-door relatives. She grew up in Tuscarawas and went to one of the central schools and then, an Eastern University campus in Cleaveland. Her dad wanted her to study law but deep down, she didn’t want that.

A voice came from behind the two. Gael and Leonard turned around in unison and they were both shocked at the sight of Ashton. Ashton was walking over with a woman and the two were holding hands.
