"m-marry?! No! hell no!" Eloise shouted out loud
Her dazed mum gazed up at her blankly. "What else can you do? Eloise people's tongues will wag. You.... you have tarnished your reputation. In order to save yourself some dignity you have to marry that man… for that, we have to find him. How will we find him?" she shot up from the sofa and started to prance around like a pregnant cat.
Eloise just gaped at hr. "You're being crazy. I just drank with someone! It's not like I slept with them!"
"It doesn't make a difference!"
Elois groaned loudly. "Mum are you being serious right now"
"I'm dead serious Eloise Ayles. So, you better work hard retrieving that memory of yours. The man who carelessly spent time with you will be your husband." She plucked the coat from the ground. "Odette check what you can find from this. a hair or even a maker's mark. We can trace it back to who lost their coat last night." She massaged her head.
