His Convenient Marriage
“Getting back on terms with Jenny was going to be more difficult than she'd envisaged, she thought, spooning coffee granules into a mug. And it was just as well her engagement to Miles wasn't the genuine article, or her sister's inimical attitude could have caused real problems. In fact she might even have been forced at some point to choose between them.
Although that was no contest. Jenny, after all, was her own flesh and blood, and needed her. She would always take priority.
But did Jenny n...ecessarily feel the same about her?
The sheer disloyalty of the thought brought her up with a gasp of shock. That was Miles' fault, she upbraided her¬self, with all that talk of Jenny making her own life—mov¬ing away and moving on.
But perhaps it was wrong to rely too heavily on her sister always being around. Because clearly that wasn't going to happen. And tonight was a case in point.
She thought, I'm going to be alone here for the first time.
She supposed it was a step in the right direction.MoreLess
