Chapter Six

‡

Lisa wasn’t just at the end of her tether, she was practically dangling from the cliff edge.

She winced as yet another delicate dress was yanked over the head of Ruby. Polly had one lying discarded at her feet – a puddle of very expensive silk covered in crystals. They were taking dresses off and tossing them to the side before Lisa could rescue them.

Nancy in the meantime was no help at all. She’d been biting her nails and staring out the window in a virtual trance ever since she got here. The only time she blinked into life was when her phone beeped.

Lisa gathered up the discarded dresses. Polly and Ruby had abandoned the concept of closing the curtains in the dressing rooms. And Lisa was doing her best not to stare but it was clear that even in the last week Polly had gained a little weight. Her hand was never away from the basket of chocolates from Sage’s shop. Maybe she should stop restocking? Ruby, on the other hand, had brought her own bottle of pink champagne which she’d drunk half of already – even though it was barely midday.

She was standing in the middle of the shop floor, dressed only in her low-cut bra, thong and stilettos, with her hands on her hips. She swung around towards Lisa – almost taking Lisa’s eye out with her boob. “I think I’ve tried every dress you have. I don’t like anything.”

Bang go my sales. Lisa could barely see over the rainbow of silk, tulle and crystals under her nose. She supressed a sigh and nodded towards the stockroom. “I have other dresses that aren’t on display. Feel free to take a look.”

She was at her wits’ end. Every single second of her patience had been stretched. Ruby topped up her glass and strutted over to the stockroom. Polly – who didn’t like to be left behind – grabbed a handful of chocolate and followed her.

Lisa bit her lip and put the dresses down on the chaise lounge next to Nancy and started rehanging the dresses. She took a deep breath. “How are you, Nancy? Is everything okay?”

Nancy’s head shot around towards her. It was almost as if she’d forgotten she was in the bridal salon.

“Yes,” she said defensively. “Everything’s fine.”

A hundred thoughts were shooting through Lisa’s brain. A thousand words were dancing on her lips. Well, four really. Your fiancé’s a cheater.

But did she really want to be the person to ruin the celebrity wedding of the year? More importantly, did she want to be the person who looked Nancy in the eye and told her news that would devastate her?

Why was any of this her business? She and Adam couldn’t possibly be the only people who’d seen Jared.

And everything wasn’t fine. Nancy’s nerves looked just as shattered as hers. She was practically jiggling as she sat on the chaise lounge, wringing her hands together.

Maybe Jared’s actions the other night were just a one-off drunken, stupid mistake. And it was none of her business anyway.
