"This... Madam, perhaps you and the young master should start eating first. I guess the master still has a lot to handle, so we shouldn't disturb him," the butler explained.
"Heart, I'm hungry. Let's eat first, okay?" Timmy covered his stomach with one hand; he had felt hungry as soon as he saw Melody Thorne bringing out the dishes.
"Alright," Melody Thorne said as she led Timmy to dinner. The three dishes Jared Quinn liked remained untouched.
In the bedroom, Melody Thorne tossed and turned, unable to sleep, waiting for Jared Quinn. As soon as she closed her eyes, images of Jared Quinn touching her in the office on the sofa popped into her mind.
Suddenly, she wanted to slap herself. Why was she thinking about such things? Was it possible she had once again fallen under Jared Quinn's spell, falling back in love with him?
Melody Thorne scorned herself while forcing her eyes shut to try to sleep.
