In another suite across town at a cheaper hotel, Murray Underwood, the private investigator who’d followed Aurelia from the states hung up the phone with a tired sigh. He’d just had the last of four intense conversations with his current clientele. Client #1 was overjoyed about Aurelia’s nuptials. Client #2 was relieved because as the wife of a wealthy man, Aurelia now posed no financial threat to him. Thus he could devote his remaining funds to his physical and financial recoveries. Client #3 was sad and disappointed that Aurelia was off the dating market. Yet he saw her marriage as a clear sign for him to just step aside. Client #4 was piping hot mad about those nuptials. He even planned to physically stop the wedding, but was delayed in London due to the bad weather currently swirling in the Atlantic Ocean . The end result was the same for Murray – loss of income.

Nerd Moment: A dolman is a loose garment with narrow sleeves and an opening in the front. You see it a lot among female attire. The sleeves almost remind you of a cape.

Interesting that most of us would have said something other than congratulations knowing what Avalon knew but instead she showed us that everything we see and know doesn't have to be verbalized immediately. Somethings we need to see, know and ponder and pray on. Anyway, saying something wasn't going to sway them anyway, their minds were pretty much made up!
Just a thought.
Latrice: Good thought(s). And you're so right about how Avalon saying something against their relationship wasn't going to sway them anyway. You know how Caesar is when he wants something. lol.

Gald that she was happy for them mom knew they make a great couple and make each other happy. thanks for the updated.

Trina: I'm pleased with Mama's reaction, too.
