When Elise came to her work over the next couple of days, she realized that Loriel may have requested Marc to lessen their workload. Elise was grateful for it and she was able to work with Alex on the wedding preparations to the fullest.
It also granted the two women a chance to talk with one another and even chat about Alex's date.
This conversation about handsome gentlemen and also the wedding allowed Elise to refocus her mind on these events instead of what happened last time. She found herself wondering about Alexei but quickly pushed the thought aside.
Elise was getting married to a loving man who loved her so much despite her flaws and lack of memory. Loriel didn't care if she was Madeline York or wherever she came from. It only mattered that he loved her.
It was this fact that gave Elise the strength to focus on wedding preparations with Alex. Loriel only cared about having wine together at the end of their wedding ceremony.
