He still wasn’t telling her where they were going as they boarded the plane, though.
Her mouth dropped open as she stepped into the main cabin and found Matthew and Kendall waiting for her.
“What’s going on?” She asked, temporarily forgetting her need for an orgasm.
Russell put a finger to his lips, and Kendall pressed her lips together.
So, they weren’t going to tell her either.
She huffed but sat in the seat Russell indicated for her.
The attendant poured them all coffee and presented an assortment of pastries for them to enjoy.
“We also need a round of mimosas—one virgin,” Russell said.
The attendant disappeared into the galley and returned in a blink with a tray of drinks, which he carefully handed out.
As the plane sped down the runway a few minutes later, the pilot came over the speaker.
“Everything along our path looks clear, and we’ll be touching down in New Orleans in just under fourteen hours.”
Gemma’s eyes widened, and she stared at her husband. “What’s happening, Russell?”
He grinned. “We’re going to spend the New Year in New Orleans.”
“But what about the charity?”
He kissed her cheek. “I made some calls and found another speaker to take your place. You need a break from all of that. I want us to start the new year in the States. It will help us set the tone for our future going forward. Let’s be with the people we love.”
She picked up his hand and brought it to her lips.
“I love you so fucking much.”
“I love you, too, Treasure.”
Then he raised his glass, and the others followed suit.
“To family,” Russell said.
They clinked their glasses and took a sip.
Gemma lifted her glass again. “To reconnecting.”
Russell smiled at her over the rim of his flute.
“To new additions and new traditions,” Matthew said, glancing at his wife’s pregnant belly as he raised his glass.
Everyone looked at Kendall and she thought for a moment before she raised her glass.
“To ringing in the new year at Solitaire Mansion.”
