The priest answers with a forlorn tone…
"I am afraid I cannot help you on this one. It seems she secluded herself, and basically cut contacts with the outside world. Maybe… she is in some super-secret location, planning something that will make those naysayers say yes to her wedding, by hook or by crook."
Leigh, in conclusion, has this to say.
"As a woman in love myself, I feel nothing but pity for Leila. Something must have happened to her that made her into more than just your average bridezilla. Because we believe everything has a reason."
"Very well said, Miss Leigh. As Proverbs 16:4 says, 'The Lord has made everything for its purpose, even the wicked for the day of trouble.'"
Having gathered enough info, we say goodbye to the good priest.
On our way home, we also pay a visit to Unity Fresh Produce Shop and buy some freshly-picked apples.
Lara and Rose are still as perky as ever.
