CHAPTER FOURTEEN

THE WEDDING WAS SIMPLE—by de Laurent standards. The guest list consisted of less than twenty people. Tasha’s gown was elegant, the flowers tasteful, and the dress code was a step or two down from black tie.

It’s no wonder that the reception was little more than the cocktail hour the de Laurents typically had before dinner. But it made little difference to Andre and Tasha. As far as they were concerned, they were on their way to a wonderful life together, and a fancy wedding mattered little to the outcome.

When the time came for Andre and Tasha to depart for the airport, she insisted on tossing her bouquet, even though there were all of four single women to vie for the catch.

Lecie, as fate would have it, caught Tasha’s bouquet. That must’ve been some kind of sign, since she’d caught the bouquet at Camille’s wedding, too. At least, Tasha thought it was a sign as she climbed into the limo where her parents were waiting.

They were also on their way to the airport, but they were headed back to the States, while Andre and Tasha’s destination was St. Tropez.

Camille stood in the shadow of the covered archway at Pacifique de Lumière’s main entrance on the second floor. The car carrying Andre and Tasha and her parents had long since disappeared behind the ancient stone walls and massive pine trees that barricaded the estate.

She could hardly wait for Tasha and Andre’s return. They were going to have such fun being pregnant together and having babies at the same time. Their children would not only be cousins, but best friends.

Reluctantly, she turned and headed back inside. Maybe she’d go find Julian and talk to him about hiring a decorator to help her with the nursery.

Camille strolled down the hallway, meeting Parker, the butler, at the main intersection.

“Madam.” Parker stood there straight-faced with his hands behind his back. “There is a long distance telephone call from California. The party, a young lady, is asking for Miss Tasha or madam.”

“Thanks, Parker. I’ll take care of it.” She headed off into the western corridor. Her destination, the sitting room. She’d found it the perfect place to take calls on the house phone. The family rarely spent time in there, so it always afforded silence and privacy.

She slipped into the room, easing the door shut behind her. She picked up the receiver, and said, “Hello. This is Camille de Laurent.”

“Camille?” A familiar voice, yet one she couldn’t identify, greeted her. “It’s Beverly from Electric Avenue. I was looking for Tasha, but they said she’s gone off on her honeymoon.”

“Beverly. Hello, how are you?” Camille asked, but didn’t wait for an answer. “Yes, Tasha and Andre are on their honeymoon.”

“Great.” Beverly sighed. “Then I take it she’s feeling better?”

“That she is.” Did Beverly know about the baby? Camille wasn’t sure and decided discretion was the best course of action.

“I’m so glad to hear that. So many people got sick. Several ended up in the hospital. It was a nasty mess.
