Mother stood at the top of her stairs in her white, silk wedding dress that must’ve cost a fortune. A beaded bodice hugged her torso, down over the flare of her hips, giving way to sheer material in layers to create a waterfall effect. Bright white as though she was pure like her daughter, but she’d brought enough men into her bed I knew the truth.
I wondered if Lloyd did—then told myself I didn’t give a shit.
He’d made his bed in hers and would be stuck with the consequences. I just hoped his kinder character would continue to rub off on Mother enough to make living with her less of a tedious task.
“Darling.” Lloyd held her hands and kissed her cheeks. “You look ravishing.”
My eyebrows pulling into a frown, I slipped into my coat one of the house staff held for me. Surely I wasn’t jealous he used the same compliment on me?
Pushing the strange feelings away by telling myself Lloyd was a fake, I lifted my chin and marched outside, preferring to wait in the cold for Mother and Lloyd rather than climb into the limo with Gideon whose gaze pebbled my skin even though I couldn’t see him through the tinted glass.
Jackasses. Both father and son.
