*Alice, get ready. We are leaving in an hour.”

She only nodded, and she was about to say something, but apparently, she struggled, and probably, she changed her mind in a second, as she just left quietly. Honestly, I wanted to know what she wanted to tell me, but again, I told myself I should not care.

My mum turned to her, but Alice just lowered her head.

“Mrs. Sullivan, I would like to apologise for the wedding dress.”

Everyone looked at her.

“So, this is the reason you are so quiet?”

She lowered her head more. “I’m not a fool.”
