“I don’t think Gabriel appreciates my fashion sense.”

I giggle as I see Gabriel approach. He heard her.

“I heard that. I'm not wearing a boring tie tonight.”

Pamela turns and looks first at Gabriel's face, then at the tie. “Well, I’ll be damned.” She turns to me, “Lexie, you’re a good influence on Gabriel. I hope he appreciates it.”

I raise my brow as I sip my glass of wine. “Me too.”

“Alright, I’m off. Lexie, stop over and visit in a bit. The girls and I are parked over in that far corner over there.” She points to the opposite corner of the room from where we are now. “I’ll save you a seat.”

“Okay. Thank you, Pamela. See you later.”
