At the dining table, Lucas and Heston exchanged puzzled glances and looked back and forth between Cassie and Anne. Feeling a bit awkward, Anne managed a half-hearted “Sure.”

“But I do think this dress will look better on you,” Julia insisted.

“Really?” Cassie thought for a while and took Jullia’s dress. “I’ll show it to Mom. You know, she really knows fashion, so asking her is a safe bet.

Julia sn**ed the dress back hastily. “Let’s not bother Anne with this
