Caroline said with a frown, “Well, I guess I’m going to disappoint you, then. All my clothes are just as unfashionable as what I’m wearing now. There’s nothing better to choose from.”

The meaning behind her words was crystal clear–she was refusing the blind date.

Before Edwin could speak again, she’d already gone back to her room.

She thought that would be the end of it. However, at the break of dawn the next day, she heard Wren calling from outside her door.

“Ms. Caroline, time to get up!”

Caroline opened her sleepy eyes and reached for her phone on the nightstand.

It was only six in the morning. What on earth was Wren waking her up for?

Wren had never once come to wake her up before.

Even when her alarm clock failed and she overslept, Wren had never bothered to call her for breakfast.

What was wrong with her today?

Caroline opened the door and saw Wren standing there, arms full of blindingly colorful clothes.

Caroline recognized them instantly–they were Helen’s discarded clothes, the ones tossed into the storage

room.

And after what she’d said last night about not owning anything fashionable, it didn’t take much to figure out what this meant.

Wren shot her a sideways glance and walked straight into her room. “Mr. Edwin says you’re to borrow Ms. Helen’s clothes for today. I picked out a few pieces for you. Try them on!”

She walked to the bed and laid the clothes out one by one.

Then she turned back to Caroline with a sharp look. “Hurry up and try them on. Once you’ve picked what to wear, let me know. I still need to put the rest back into the storage room.”

She turned to leave, but Caroline grabbed her by the sleeve.

Thinking about that smug expression she always wore, Caroline couldn’t help but tighten her grip. Wren staggered back a few steps, losing her balance and nearly falling.

She didn’t hit the floor because Caroline caught her at the last second.

“Wren, you really must be getting old. I barely touched you, yet you’re already about to fall over.”

Wren’s expression soured with rage.

She was about to argue when Caroline cut her off cold.
