Betty was one of Zoe’s few friends. Zoe had befriended Betty primarily because Betty hailed from the esteemed Beckett family. Zoe deemed Betty worthy of her friendship.

“Gosh, Betty, you look gorgeous today! And you’ve even brought gifts. You really didn’t have to do that,” Zoe smiled brightly and welcomed Betty at the entrance. They held hands like best friends.

Zoe smiled knowingly at the stack of luxury brand boxes. “Is the gift for Landon somewhere in there?
