Chapter 156 Wedding Planner's Lust💦 (5)

• Valerie arrived at the hotel café at eight fifty-seven.
• She had barely slept the previous night. Her eyes felt gritty and she was full of nerves, but she still forced herself through a shower, pulled on a simple blouse and jeans, and came downstairs. The café was quiet at that hour. Soft morning light came through the tall windows and made the wooden tables look warmer than they were. The air smelled like freshly ground coffee and something sweet baking in the back.
• Morgan was already sitting at a corner table. Two cups sat in front of her. She wore a dark shirt with the sleeves rolled up to her elbows and looked as composed as she had the night before. When she noticed Valerie, the corner of her mouth lifted in a small, private smile.
