“Hi, Colleen, Mr. Loftus.”
Taking a step back to look at Debbie, Curtis complimented, “You look great. No doubt Carlos has been good to you.”
Colleen released Curtis and took Debbie’s hand.
“Of course. One has just to look at Debbie to know that she is in love,” she said, as gentle as the first time Debbie had met her. If Debbie hadn’t seen Colleen on the dance floor the other day, she wouldn’t have believed the woman could dance seductively like that. Debbie smiled resignedly.

Now that she was married, she didn’t want to engage with anyone from the Gomez family, unless it was necessary.
Just as Debbie was about to leave, Portia began, “What’s the rush? Are you hiding something?”
