His Christmas Nymph
“Something changed within his gaze. He looked devilishly determined. The soldier inside of him was coming out. She didn’t really want to leave him—she only wanted to leave him on principle. His family had wronged her mother and she couldn’t, in all good faith stick it out with him. Even if her heart pained and she felt faint at the very prospect of never seeing him again.
“If you leave this house, your family must also leave Banbury House, posthaste. I will not have you trespassing on my fa...mily’s charity any longer.”
His words were purposely cruel, and struck to the quick, even though she could see he forced himself to say them. He was grasping now. He was trying to throw his weight around—and he would have succeeded, had she cared what happened to her family—or had she cared what happened to herself.
Her father would find a way, he always did, and she didn’t care about Gertrude. Gertrude had a strong constitution, she would be able to weather this storm.MoreLess
