Samantha was actually glad for the distraction. Thinking about her cousin's love affair helped her forget about her own. She was too busy to think about her weakness and the way Rider read through her.
Dressing up Lara was her priority, at the moment.
Not that she had any choice to make. Nate had already bought the dress; Samantha just needed to convince Lara to choose that one. It wouldn't be too difficult: the dress was awesome.
«I found the perfect gown for you, Lara,» she said while opening the wardrobe. «I can't wear it because I don't look good in it, so it's new.»
She showed her the dress. It was a light blue knee dress with a halter neckline. The bodice was filled with small shiny stones, reflecting the light and creating many geometrical patterns. The fabric was loose around the body, and the skirt was simple and light.
