The morning sun seeped gently into the room and the breeze flapped the curtains gently. The naked couple was still entangled with each other on the bed. The room was still filled with the smell of what transpired between them the other night.

Maurice was the first to open his eyes and he could say for the first time in years he was able to sleep soundly even though it was for a few hours.

He smiled seeing the bare back of Hadley and he kissed her back gently. "I love you….and thank you for bringing me peace," Maurice mumbled.

Yes, he loves her even though he does not know when those feelings started to spurt but now he is sure.

Hadley stretched lazily but she felt a body against her and something poking her butt but she grinds her butt against it more because she felt good but her eyes widened immediately feeling something was wrong.

Did you find my bag pretty too?" Carolina asked snuggly since that was what the people in her department had been all and all about with the shade of pleasing but she knew otherwise because those people were definitely sucking up to her."Indeed your bag is pretty but I am not here for the bag but for your cousin-in-law," Cassandra says and she saw the lady's eyes twitch."I know this might sound absurd but I have something or should I say that there is something that you must know about your cousin-in-law," Cassandra says and Carolina was more than interested in the deal."What did you mean by that?"

    Hadley felt bile rise in her throat as she looked at Carolina, her fast tongue suddenly felt tired and she did not know words to counter what Carolina just said.Different thoughts ran through her head and she wondered how she should reply. Should she just deny it and say she is real? Is that not going to give her the impression that there was something?Or should she just play dumb or ask her what she meant? Or should she just simply walk away?Even though the last option looked tempting Hadley knew that it would be unwise to walk away especially if the allegations laid against her gas were not to be retracted. She had to defend herself.So, she chose the safest option. Play dumb no matter what."What are you saying?" Hadley asked, balling her hands into a fist trying to hide her fear.

    The whole ballroom fell into silence, and Nicholas's gesture raised an eyebrow to everyone in the room, and they were all curious as to what Hadley was going to do. “What are you doing, Mr. Sanders?” Hadley asked through gritted teeth warning the man to behave herself, and she wondered why Maurice was silent on the matter.He wasn't that quiet, so she understood what was going on. Maybe she should be worried after all.“I am asking you to dance, Mrs. Elliot? Did you find it so wrong?” he asked, and she hissed hearing his words.She was sure that he was trying to get Maurice to lose his temper in front of those people, and when Hadley started wanting to lash out at the man, Maurice interrupted her.“You are really funny, Mr. Sanders I almost mistaken you for a comedian instead of a businessman.
