Chapter Seven

Gen hurried into the hotel room where the bridesmaids were bustling about, putting the finishing touches on their looks. Clutching her dress draped over one arm and her heels dangling from her free hand, she made her way straight to her sister. Gen’s face lit up with a bright smile as she caught sight of Jada, who was glowing in the fairytale princess gown she had always dreamed of. Catching her own reflection in the mirror, Jada spun around, eyes wide with surprise.

“Genevieve! Oh my God!” Jada exclaimed, lifting her voluminous skirt and rushing toward her sister as quickly as she could manage.

Jada wrapped Gen in a tight embrace. “You look stunning,” Gen said softly, her voice thick with emotion.

Jada’s expression shifted quickly. “Me? Who cares about me right now? What happened last night?” she asked, her hands moving rapidly over Gen’s body, searching for any sign of harm.

Gen let out a light laugh. “What are you talking about? It doesn’t matter! You’re the one getting married today!”

“Yeah, right. We all know she just made him leave with her. Probably took him back to the hotel and dropped him off,” Mallory sneered from her spot on the couch, clutching an almost empty bottle of champagne.
