Caroline couldn't help but laugh, "You know, you're quite the character. What's done is done. I trust you with my wedding dress."
"Are you kidding?"
Rebecca's smile widened, nearly reaching her ears, "Ms. Bennett, you're so gracious to overlook my past mistakes. Don't worry, I'll do everything in my power to make sure you're satisfied!"
"Heh, sounds good."
Francis frowned silently, thinking, "I didn't expect this side of Rebecca."
Put nicely, she's adaptable.
Put bluntly, she's a bit of a suck-up.
But then again, maybe it's this very trait that's kept her going all this time.

That evening, Sherilyn and Gilbert stayed over at the Johnson Mansion.
Gilbert was busy with something, so Sherilyn decided to head to bed first. Entering her room, she noticed she had accidentally taken Gilbert's jacket with her.
He had handed it to her earlier when he felt warm.
Sherilyn got up, intending to return it to his room.
Suddenly, she felt something in the palm of her hand.
What was it?
Reaching into the jacket pocket, she pulled out a small, elegant jewelry box.
What could be inside? A necklace? A bracelet? Something he bought for her?
Earlier today, she had declined to join him, so had he decided to buy her something in secret?
Opening the box, she found… a pair of Minnie Mouse hair clips?
Really?
Sherilyn was puzzled. Was this really Gilbert's taste? Why would he think to buy her these hair clips?
She held one up to the mirror, wondering, "Does it even suit me?"
Her looks were more radiant than sweet, and these cute hair clips…
They didn't really fit.
She placed the hair clips back in the box, sealed it as it was, and put it back in the jacket pocket.
