<div class="floatleft">(https://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/c/cd/Doctor_Katrina_Kyle.jpeg)</div>Thanking Mechelle, I took a sip of my drink and waved away her apology.<br/><br/><strong>"Oh it's fine. I spent most of the time hiding in my office dealing with whichever girl the Casino sent me, so unless Jaclyn needed her head looking at, she probably wouldn't have bumped into me."</strong><br/><br/>Chuckling at her comment about Jacquelines habit of introducing everyone, whether they knew each other or not, I couldn't help but agree, though it was a shame not to see her here at the grand reopening.<br/><br/>Noting Mechelle's curious look at my shoe, I smiled and nodded down at them.<br/><br/><strong>"It's a bet I have with a patient of mine who has a spending problem. She's obsessed with only buying the most expensive items, and it's bankrupting her. If I can prove you can live equally well by being thrifty, she's agreed to only wear what I tell her for the next month."</strong>
