WHO: Eddie & Serena WHEN: Sunday afternoon WHERE: Boutique WHAT: Serena disapproves of Eddie's trip to the city to meet a married woman, Eddie asks about her new love interest
Ties. Edward Carmichael hated ties. He looked damn good in a tux, but Merlin, he hated ties. Rows and rows of Italian silk surrounded him in a rainbow of colors, patterns and textures, and he could feel the disdain prickling at his skin. He preferred greeting his lady loves in a crisp dress shirt and a tailored blazer, but married Mrs. Kingwell insisted he greet her with a tie. Windsor knot. She mentioned something about liking the way she could grab it to pull him in for a kiss.
Eying a dark inky blue one with a maroon stripe, the doors of the boutique jingled as a new patron entered the store. Raising his brow, he eventually glanced up to see who it was.
