She hesitated, unsure whether to accept it. Eventually, she took it from him, feeling the soft fabric in her hands. “Come with me,” he offered with a hint of a smile. “I can make all your worries disappear.” “What do you have to offer?” she asked warily. “Money, wealth, power? I have no use for any of that.” He grinned mischievously. “Will my body be enough?” “Give me your room number.” — Rumor has it that Jack Lorenzo was an old man with three children and despite being wealthy beyond comparison no woman in Ashford City wanted to marry him.

The Wedding

It was the day of the wedding, and everything was going according to plan. But as Phoebe stood in her empty room, she couldn't help but feel a deep sense of sadness.

Not a single family member had bothered to come and visit her in the condo, let alone help her prepare for the big day.

Only the glam team had come to help her prepare but it didn't ease the emptiness she felt in her heart knowing they weren't her family.

She couldn't quite describe how disappointed she was. If it weren't for the fear of ruining her makeup, she'd cried her heart out moments ago.

Even Melinda had not shown up. She would understand if Edward, Sophie, and Valerie were not interested in coming, but Melinda was different. Her grandmother would want to be with her, preparing for the big day unless something terrible happened.

Phoebe felt let down, and she wondered what could have stopped Melinda from visiting her.
