"I'm alright."
Serena forced herself to steady her emotions, quickly shooting a message to Martha.
(Martha, are you certain? Did David really give the concert tickets to Rosemary?)
(I was right there when your mom called, no doubt about it! Not only did David give Rosemary the ticket, he gave her the best seats!)
Perhaps sensing Serena's heartache, Martha couldn't help but express her outrage.
(David's being totally out of line. He tells you there are no tickets left and then just turns around and hands them to his own little sister. He's not considering your feelings at all!)
The term "little sister" pierced Serena's heart like a dagger.
She couldn't believe that David, who had been so gentle on the phone just moments ago, had lied to her!
(You mentioned earlier that Hunter already has a date for the charity dinner next week. It's not Rosemary, is it?) Martha messaged again.
Serena hesitated. It couldn't be.
