Chapter 73 Seventy Three

• CHAPTER 73
• Glimmering decorations hung over Valerie's beach house living room, coupled with a large, block-lettered gold sign that read, 'Happy 29th, Valerie!'. An array of food trays stood before caterers in the corner of the large room as the 90's jazz music played in the background.
• Valerie was seated before her vanity mirror testing the different colors of lipsticks with Gideon just gazing at her sweetly from behind.
