Chapter 183

After getting discharged, Eloise hopped on a plane to Switzerland. She stayed there for a week, keeping Vanessa company, but Vanessa eventually shooed her back home.

"There's a ton of stuff waiting for you to deal with in Peterborough. You shouldn't just be here with me. I'm living it up here - sunshine, handsome guys everywhere. Even the doctors are eye candy," Vanessa winked.

Eloise smiled. "Alright, I'll head back then."

Vanessa drove her to the airport. As they said their goodbyes, she held Eloise's hand and whispered, "You've grown up. You've changed."

...

Eloise had just returned to Peterborough. Veronica called demanding souvenirs and invited her to Riley's birthday party.

Eloise had barely unpacked. Sitting on the couch in her apartment, she laughed. "I brought back some gifts, but I might have to pass on the birthday bash."

Veronica said quietly, "Riley didn't invite him."

Eloise knew who "him" referred to. She thought for a moment, then agreed.

...

On Friday evening, Eloise changed into a dress and took a cab to the club. The party was already in full swing in the private room. Most of the people were Riley's friends. Some were Veronica's classmates. Eloise knew them all.

She brought gifts. A fancy pair of watches for men and women, straight from Switzerland. Not cheap.

Veronica's eyes welled up when she saw them. She kept exclaiming, "This is way too expensive, Eloise. You're too generous!"

She called Riley over.
