Monday-November 23th, 2020
Kate's day had been alright even for her very high standards-she had saved the Community Center, at least for the day. That was more than anyone else could say for their futile days in the tons. She felt elated, proud. She was a savior today. A hero, some might say. She felt strong, unbeatable. A force to be reckon with.
She returned to the Big House (which served currently as her house since her stepmother had been elected mayor; but Kate was still having a little bit of trouble getting used to it) and found that her sister, Edwina, was sitting on the couch reading something on her phone and giggling like a schoolgirl.
"Let me guess," Kate said to the room at large, "that ridiculous app, What Everyone Sees But Nobody Talks About, has been updated?"
Edwina looked over her shoulder. "How can you tell?" she asked. "Wait a minute, Kate. Don't tell me you subscribe to Hamptons Girl? You? Miss I'm-Above-All-Gossip?"
"Oh, please. Of course not," Kate said, throwing herself on the couch beside Edwina. "It's not hard to tell, you know. You're giggling like a madwoman. And you only do that when the so-called 'Hamptons Girl' writes about what you consider cute guys or whatever." Kate eyed her curiously. "So tell me... Who's the man of the hour? Who has made your face light up like a Christmas tree?"
"I don't know what you're talking about."
Kate raised an eyebrow and, like a quickcat, reached out and grabbed the phone from Edwina's small delicate hands.
"Hey!" the girl protested, but it was no use. Kate was already midway through the pink text.
What Everyone Sees But Nobody Talks About Nº374
Matchmaking mothers of the tons are throwing small celebrations everywhere today-and who can blame them? Colin Bridgerton is back in town, all the way from Greece and even I have to admit that it adds a sunshine to my gloomy days.
Let's rewind on that Bridgerton info, shall we? Remember, GH, Colin is third in the legendary string of eight Bridgerton siblings and, although he only owns a seventh of half of BCorp, Colin is definitely everyone's favorite Bridgerton. Why, you ask? Well, hens, if you need me to answer that you have obviously never had the pleasure of meeting the man I speak of. He is considered one of the biggest prizes in the matchmaking world of the tons due to his large fortune, his gorgeous face, his perfect bod and—the cherry on top—his irresistable charm.
It is, however, hard to predict whether Mr. Bridgerton will fall in the trap of a serious relationship; he hasn't been seen with a woman since his major break up last April. His ex of four years, on the other hand, Holly Macclesfield, has been spotted with a large rock on her finger that we know for sure wasn't given to her by Colin. Seems unfathomable that Holly (or anyone really, I mean, come on, he's like super hot!) would leave Colin Bridgerton for another man, but she has been sticking to that decision like a damn koala bear. Which makes us wonder (doesn't it?) if maybe this wasn't due to his appalling tendency to leave Great Hamptons at the drop of a hat without a hint that he would be missing her or not.
But honestly, Holly girl, I find myself in the uncomfortable position of placing the blame on you. You should've known better, sister. One look at that smile and I know there is nothing he takes seriously, much less if you constantly dress your 'nothing' in cheetah print unitards. Takes a real professional to pull that shit off and—I'm glad to say—you're not it.
