"You look lovely."

"Thank you, Florence. I don't know how long I will be out, so if Nolan or any other lawyers come with the divorce papers for me to put away, have them come another time. It would be rude to keep them waiting," Scarlet said, watching as Florence moved like a busy bee to finish getting her dressed.

"Understood," Florence replied.

"Isn't this too much for a simple garden party?" Scarlet questioned, turning her head to the right to get a better look at the hat Florence picked.

Florence internally screamed as Scarlet's first choice was already too simple. Scarlet had plenty of jewels gifted to her that deserved to be put on display to remind everyone of who Scarlet was. "It is not too much in my opinion. It is enough to add to the dress but to stay true to the simplicity you enjoy."
