For Autumn, this birthday party was nothing short of agony.
Because of Daria, she couldn’t bear to leave; because of Devin, she didn’t dare stay. Talk about being caught between a rock and a hard place.
But what’s meant to happen always finds a way.
Autumn kept to herself, sitting quietly through lunch, trying to make herself invisible.
The afternoon rolled in with singing, dancing, cards, and tea. The men wandered off to play ball; the women circled up to gossip about handbags, marriage, and, inevitably, men.
Despite her title as the mayor’s wife, Autumn didn’t really have anyone she could call a true friend. Most people who came up to her were just looking to network or get in her good graces.
Anastasia, meanwhile, kept sneaking glances at Autumn. Monica, who could read her like an open book, nudged her. “Ana, you seem distracted. Something up?”
Anastasia glanced again at Autumn’s table. Monica caught the look. “Alright, spill. You’re dying to tell me. What’s the gossip?”
Anastasia leaned in, her eyes twinkling. “Get this—Autumn and Devin? First loves, back at it again.”
Monica’s jaw dropped. The Walker family’s scandals were even juicier than celebrity gossip.
And Autumn’s affair was with Devin? That was next-level.
“Shut up!” Monica could hardly contain herself, her eyes darting between Devin and Autumn. “Ana, how could you keep something like this from me? That’s prime gossip!”
Anastasia grinned. “I only just found out. Keep it under wraps, okay?”
“Of course.” Monica mimed zipping her lips. “You know I won’t blab.”
She knew how serious this was. The mayor getting cheated on was no small thing.
