Enoch said, “She's a physiotherapist and my wife. Got a problem with that?”
The thing about Enoch? He didn’t take kindly to anyone messing with his loved ones.
Drusilla wasn’t just anyone; she was his better half. Talking smack about his wife in front of him was like asking for trouble.
He wasn’t about to let that slide!
Althea wouldn’t dare cross him. “No...no, of course not...”
She looked at Drusilla with a face that seemed as if she had just swallowed a lemon.
Thinking back on her words in front of Enoch, no wonder... he was ticked off.
Drusilla, standing off to the side, heard Enoch introduce her to Althea and awkwardly cleared her throat. She couldn’t fathom why their business talk had somehow shifted to her.
...
After leaving the Taylor Group, Drusilla followed Enoch to a diner. Enoch was a fan of quiet places, so they ended up in a diner that was almost empty.
Drusilla was sipping her soup when her phone pinged with a friend request. The name “Althea” popped up.
Drusilla was taken aback to see Althea reaching out. After becoming a big-time celebrity, Althea hardly kept in touch with her old classmates.
Curious, Drusilla accepted the request.
Althea wasted no time.
[Drusilla, you actually married Enoch! I hadn’t heard a thing about it.]
[It wasn’t a big deal, so I didn’t mention it.]
To Drusilla, it really wasn’t a big deal. It was just a charade, bound to end sooner or later.
But her nonchalant tone came off as humble bragging to Althea.
Marrying into the Taylor family was like hitting the jackpot. Even a star like Althea would struggle to marry into such wealth, let alone the Taylors.
