She grabbed Selena’s wrist. “Y-Y-Y-You…” Lindsay was stammering, seized by her overwhelming excitement.
Jocelyn was shocked, but she came over to find out what was going on. “What’s wrong, Mom?”
Selena pulled Lindsay’s hand away. “Still up for more, Mrs. Murray. Sorry, but I’m not in the mood for it. I was tolerating you because you’re the elderly, but keep this up and I’ll record everything. You don’t want to get sued, do you?”
Lindsay was hyperventilating. She was beside herself at the sight of the bracelet, and she felt stuffy. Jocelyn quickly held her. “Calm down, Mom.”
Selena threw her a glance. She didn’t want to argue with the old lady, but she wouldn’t take her abuse lying down either. After the whole fiasco was settled, Selena left the ball elegantly. Jocelyn took Lindsay to the nearest seat and gave her a pill to calm down.
“What happened, Mom? Why did you do that?” Jocelyn thought Lindsay had crossed the line. She couldn’t understand why Lindsay would harass Selena so much. She’s a gentle soul. What happened to her? Did Linda do something? Everything started right after she came back.
“I’m fine,” Lindsay finally answered. “Where’s Selena?”
“You insulted her, and the guests wouldn’t stop gossiping about her, so she left.”
