“She took a wry delight in being the hostess at a social gathering, since all her life she had been only a servant—unnoticed, deliberately unobtrusive. She had been trained to fade into the background, but now she would have to do the opposite: shine, be the center of attention, the object of everyone’s scrutiny. Would she do something gauche? Say the wrong thing? Gavin had drilled her over and over, covering conversation manners, table manners, everything he could think of. If she made any slip...s, she knew he would be furious. Gavin was becoming so dominating as to be unbearable. Not a day went by that he didn’t threaten horrors for Charles and misery for her if she failed to obey. Dirk Hollister was equally obnoxious. Everywhere she went, every time she turned around, he was spying on her, taunting her. She was constantly being watched. What hurt the most was the realization of how thoroughly she was now trapped. She had allowed herself to become ensnared by Gavin and his plans because she was desperate about Charles.MoreLessRead More Read Less
