Page 11 of I Really Do

Vivienne Carlisle (7:44 pm):

Are you up for going modern

with the pocket square and tie?

Or are you selecting black and

white, respectively?

Brooke thought about this for a moment. She had assumed she would go black and white, but now she was curious as to what Vivienne was thinking. Vivienne was by far the most stylish of the group and fully understood the Kent family dynamics. Brooke trusted her judgment.

Brooke Kent (7:46 pm):

Had thought classic, but

open to ideas.

Vivienne Carlisle (7:47 pm):

Your date wants you to match her.

Brooke didn’t really know how to respond to that. The thought of Anna personally selecting her pocket square and bow tie was like something out of a dream.

Brooke Kent (7:47 pm):

And what do you think?

Vivienne Carlisle (7:48 pm):

I think… It’s honestly quite endearing.

I wouldn’t suggest it if the whole

thing weren’t an F you to your

mother, but it is. And Anna seems

… happy about it?

Brooke smiled softly at her screen. Anna had managed to charm Vivienne.

Brooke Kent (7:49 pm):

Buy whatever she selects.

Vivienne Carlisle (7:51 pm):

I mean this in the most loving way,

you’re completely screwed. She

won’t let us send you a photo of the dress—

She wants it to be a surprise. But

I know you and how hot you find this woman

in normal clothes. You. Are. Screwed.
