When J arrived at the Evergreen Villa, it was almost seven o'clock in the evening, the house was empty. Lily is already filming her movie in Mt. Celandine, so she would be gone for a couple of weeks. Jacob is probably already in Elm Palace Hotel where the CLP Hospitals Foundation Gala is to be held. She felt somewhat down. She thought that she might see Jacob when she arrives and if he persuades her one last time, she might go with him.
She walks into the bedroom disappointed. But when she entered the room, she noticed a beautiful box lying on the bed. She walked towards it and found a note on top of it. It said 'In case you change your mind.' The note was from Jacob.
She opened the box and saw an off-shoulder royal blue mermaid dress. It was so beautiful that J can't help feeling its texture. She held the gown and a feeling of excitement arose from her. The reason why she didn't practice racing that afternoon was because she had decided to go to the foundation gala.
