Violette explained, "It was pouring rain at that time, I couldn't just kick him out."
"Ah, so you guys slept in the same bed? How could you just let him sleep on the bed? He didn’t pay a dime, and just because of a rainstorm, you gave him the chance?" Odette asked.
Violette was a bit puzzled, "We didn't do anything. Oh, he did do one thing."
"I knew he must have done something." Odette said.
Feeling the conversation was getting weird, Violette quickly interrupted her, "Odette, it's not what you're thinking! He washed my feet."
Violette didn't want to share this, but Odette’s piercing gaze left her no choice!
After she finished, Odette started laughing triumphantly, "Mr. Bourne is really something! Those noble hands of his, not only good for making money, but also for washing a woman's feet! Is this humble and enduring spirit his secret to success? No wonder successful people can achieve in everything they do! If a guy washed my feet, I'd be totally down for it!"
The room burst into laughter!
Violette felt her cheeks burning, and she held her water glass with both hands, thinking about Elijah. Would he be mad if he found out she had shared this? After all, this could be a reason for people to laugh at him.
