Chapter 23 Push Him Out

• Camilla processed the information between this Kira girl and her husband with a frigid smile hidden by her glass. She had never loved being an actress as much as she did now. It came in too handy, particularly for moments like this one. Her cool exterior, while internally brimming with anger, was award worthy. Why did he bring the girl here? What happened to the ‘happy facade?
• What did Kira mean by Papa invited her? The father of the groom hadn’t introduced himself to her, but she had spotted him at the church with a nasty scowl that made her shiver from the memory. If she forgot anything about that man, she wouldn’t forget the jagged scar on his temple. Scars seemed to be something common here.
• A server came to their table, and Kira snatched a glass of champagne from his tray. There were so many things she hated about this reception, and Kira’s presence was one more item on that list. Two, her gown was not appropriate for a dance. It wasn’t meant to be worn this long, yet no one made plans for a reception dress. She wouldn’t admit this to the housekeeper, but she was missing that woman. Doris would have known what to do. She would have made sure she was comfortable throughout today.
