She had no idea what just happened or if she’d done the right thing. She usually trusted her brother’s opinions and listened to his advice. But she was done taking orders from half-informed men.Something brushed her bare arm—Parker’s knuckle. “Are you all right?”She looked him in the eye. “Who are you?” “Parker Hughes.”“How do you know my brother?” “Scout was my best friend growing up.”She frowned. Evelyn didn’t grow up like ordinary children. She’d had a terrible life, the sort no child should ever have to endure. “Did you meet her when she lived at St. Christopher’s?”“No. I met her when she lived at the tracks.”None of this made any sense. “What are the tracks?”“A dark place where homeless people go.” He barely flinched as he said the words, which made her believe he was telling the truth. Holding her stare, he confessed, “I lived there, too.”She dropped into a vacant seat, blinking as her mind worked to make sense of all this. “You … lived there? You were homeless?”“Not a

Parker held her door and she awkwardly pulled her skirts into the car, some type of sleek white coupe. The door closed and she willed herself not to look back, shutting her eyes to avoid the view in the side mirrors as her heart pounded.The driver’s door opened and Parker climbed in beside her. “Was that him?”Jarred that he had somehow noticed something everyone else overlooked after only thirty seconds of seeing her in Sawyer’s presence, she swallowed thickly. She debated lying for a moment, but the evening seemed to be doomed, with one disaster after another, so she figured why bother?“Yes. He knows you.”“He used to be my boss.”Opening her eyes, she stared at him. “You worked at Leningrad?”He nodded. It must have been after she left. Otherwise, she would have read his application.How had he gotten a job with such animosity between him and Lucian? “Patras owns a portion of that company.”“I know.”It seemed everyone knew everything. She was the only one in the dark. At this po

It was almost lunch and she was in the mood for a salad.“Isadora.”“Yes?” she called, making her way to the fridge. “Are you going to tell me what happened?”She pulled out some lettuce, tomatoe

“I never want to hurt you.”SawyerAS IT TURNED OUT, Isadora did have a date that night, just not the date anyone expected. Walking into the familiar restaurant on the first floor of the Patras Hotel, she showed herself to the restaurant in the back. Evelyn waved the moment she spotted her.“Sorry I’m late,” Isadora apologized, settling her napkin on her lap. “Thanks for meeting me.” Her sister-in-law grinned.“No problem. It’s been a long time since we had one of our lunches, although this is technically dinner.”A waiter came by and took their drink orders as they perused the selection. Once Isadora decided, she closed the menu and placed it aside.“So, is this a social thing or a follow-up to Lucian’s visit this afternoon?” There was no point beating around the bush.“A little of the first, nothing of the second, and a bit of my own concern.”One thing she appreciated about Evelyn was her ability to be direct.“Well, let’s get the concerns out of the way so we can move onto the fun

Her mind raced with ideas for a baby shower and little itty-bitty outfits and soft blankets. Oh, she was going to spoil that kid rotten!As she pulled onto the highway her phone rang. Since she was driving, she didn’t look at the caller ID.“Hello?”“Bella?”Her smile faltered. “S—Sawyer?” “How are you?”“I’m … okay.” Why was he calling? “Is something wrong?” He hadn’t called her in months and now, after running into him just last night, he was talking to her again?She caught her breath. Last night she’d fallen right to sleep, without sparing Sawyer a single thought. Considering what had happened… The realization shocked her.“I wanted to speak to you—in person. Are you free tonight?”She frowned, her stomach pinching with uncertainty. She couldn’t see him. Seeing him led to tears and she didn’t need to cry anymore.Make up an excuse! “I’m in the city, well, just leaving it anyway.” “I can wait.”Her gut instinct was to say no. “I don’t know, Sawyer—” “Please, bella.

“But since of diff'rent dishes we should taste; Upon an ancient work my hands I've placed; Where full a hundred narratives are told, And various characters we may behold…”Jean de La FontaineThe Servant Girl JustifiedISADORA WAITED five days to call Parker.She’d wanted to call him sooner, but she needed time to calm down after her fight with Sawyer. She couldn’t get over him inviting her to his house like that. He’d never made her feel like a whore until that moment and his doing so disjointed parts of her heart, damaging them like pieces of a worn out puzzle she couldn’t solve.What they shared was perhaps the most precious thing she’d ever owned, but his recent behavior summed up their time together as a cheap and tawdry affair. How dare he taint her beautiful life and all she valued, summarizing years of affection with the shabby necessity of lust?He had no right, and she’d likely be angry with him for a long time, longer than she wanted to spare.
