"Violette!" Odette shoved the door open and stormed in, "Do you know what Elijah just said to my hubby?”
Violette sat up in alarm. What was he doing looking for Ramsey?
Could it be...?
"He said he wasn't coming to our wedding before, but he just changed his mind! He said he'd attend our wedding tomorrow.” Odette spoke rapidly, “Why is he so damn fickle?”
Violette heaved a sigh of relief.
"By the way, did he come looking for you earlier? What did you guys talk about?" Odette sat down by the bed, scrutinizing Violette's face, "He didn't do anything to you, did he? I wanted to come over to help you, but Brandon said he would come."
"It's okay.” Violette answered calmly, “There are so many guests tonight, he won't lose it."
"That's good. Do you want to go out for some fresh air? It's really cool outside! You won't feel cold!” Odette asked with concern, "It's still early, so you probably can't sleep yet."
Without much thought, Violette nodded, "I didn't bring any extra clothes, can I wear my pajamas?"
"Ha-ha! They're all playing in the swimming pool right now, all in swimsuits. Of course it's no problem for you to wear your PJs!” Odette took her by the hand and left the room.
It was past seven in the evening now, and the seaside street lights cast long shadows. Many people were frolicking by the sea.
The temperature was in the teens, a little cool, but not cold.
A gust of sea breeze blew over, and Violette felt a bit more awake.
"Elijah should get some air.” She murmured.
Perhaps the wind could clear his head a bit.
