Annie feigns interest as her client studies the OPI color chart. After years of selecting polishes, one to her is no different from the other. What's far more interesting is the conversation from the last manicure appointment that is sure to continue about the woman's pending divorce. Will she get the house and custody of the children, or will he?
You see, this nail tech is secretly writing a book about her clients' lives, and this juicy story of lovers turned enemies is on track to be Chapter 4. A novel like this will surely end up on the New York Times Best Seller list because who doesn't love gossip?
As the account of last week's hearing in court for alimony begins, Annie notices the client is no longer wearing the three-carat radiant cut yellow diamond ring. Did the husband take it too when he emptied the bank accounts and canceled all the credit cards? Or was she forced to sell it?
