Her step-mother and her three children, who were all older, left her outside the church - 'to direct the guests in' while they were inside putting on a great show of weeping and wailing over her rich dead father. They didn't love him and he knew it. He'd told her so in his final minutes. He also said that he would be sending someone to watch out for her and take care of her. "You're gonna need it darlin' when they...when...they...f-find...out.... I...I love you punkin'." And that was the last he said. And now there came a stranger. "Lady Trevane?" "Yes?" "Your father sent me." ***** Sounds like a soap opera, doesn't it? I'm quite liking playing with hats :) I love hats anyway. Character is my Ruby. Hat is from Joanna's freebie ladies hats collection. Thanks for stopping by dear friends, for your comments, views and favs. Much appreciated! Have a fabulous Friday! Rayvn
