Chapter 9 Summary: “Aida”

In the week before the wedding, Aida attends a dress fitting with Callum’s mother, Imogen, and sisters, Nessa and Riona. Nessa treats Aida warmly, but Riona is critical. After trading insults with Riona, Aida chooses a simple gown that reminds her of one her mother wore. Imogen informs Aida that a pre-wedding spa day has been booked for her.


At the spa, an esthetician performs a Brazilian wax without Aida’s consent. Aida learns the service was arranged by Callum. Feeling violated and humiliated, Aida endures the waxing and vows to get revenge on Callum.

Chapter 10 Summary: “Callum”

On his wedding day, Callum reflects on his lack of interest in marriage. He discovers his tuxedo is missing and receives a box from Aida containing an ostentatious brown suit and a mocking note. Imogen insists he wear the suit.


Before the wedding, Aida asks for one of the strawberry cocktails being served at the venue. At the ceremony, the guests are divided into groups according to family. Sebastian is in a wheelchair, while Dante and Nero serve as groomsmen. When Aida walks down the aisle, she and Callum exchange whispered barbs. After they are pronounced married, Callum kisses her aggressively, tastes strawberries, and collapses from a severe allergic reaction.
