Drama Update

Aurelie turned up alive and well at her parents' house just outside Paris. She called me and we had a very long chat. She wants time to think about what she wants in her life.

Bastien is a mess. I went round to their apartment to check on him and we talked until late. I didn't know she was already pregnant when they married. How did I not know this? I think I've convinced him to go after her. I hope I did. I don't have time for the drama right now, as I'm arranging a fund-raising ball for one of our most demanding clients right now.

And I have books about to come out, and I owe you all an update on Poppy's Caribbean Adventure. (I could do with one of those myself about now!)
