“We both know your mother.”

This time she did laugh. Oh, she knew her mother well and the devious things she could do.

“But don’t think you’re going to be getting out of a big party to celebrate your nuptials. Let your mother do her thing.”

Oh, great. She should’ve known it wouldn’t be this easy to get her father’s forgiveness and life to go on without more issues cropping up.

Brick returned.

“I was telling Jezebelle that my wife wants to throw a celebratory party for you two. At our home. In Connecticut.”

Brick looked at Jezebelle and held her gaze for the longest time. “If that’s what Jezebelle wants, okay. Thank you.”

Her father’s eyes narrowed as if zooming in on his black eye. “Bradley will be there. That won’t be a problem, will it?”

A cocky smile appeared on Brick as he crossed his arms and leaned against the back counter. “Not at all. As long as he keeps his hands and lips to himself, no problem whatsoever.”

Her father chuckled. She coughed, trying to cover her gasp at Brick’s bold words.

“Welcome to the family, Brick.”

Jezebelle was starting to doubt her father actually meant that.
