“I seriously debate taking a sickie. But in the end, I can’t stand the thought of sitting at home stewing in my juices while Mum potters around and Dad waits for the Argos delivery of a new pre-fab shed. Besides, since I’m obviously going to have nothing more to do with Rosemont Hall, I may as well give Jack Faraday a piece of my mind if he does ring the office. Jack Faraday. I think back to all my ludicrous imaginings of him: fat and middle-aged, a New-York ball-buster; Bill Gates – all golf-pl...aying, and all based on nothing at all. Whereas in reality, I now know that he’s devious, underhanded, and… beautiful. Every nerve in my body tingles when I recall the sound of his voice; the electric moment when we shook hands. Which is just ridiculous. I try to force him from my mind with a cup of hot coffee and a piece of toast. It doesn’t work. How could he, of all people, be the one person who feels a connection to the house? And feeling that connection, how could he betray it? He’s even worse, much worse, than I thought.MoreLessRead More Read Less
