“In the four days that she had been in the city she had attended a small luncheon hosted by the Duchess of Mawbrey, paid a visit to Georgie, now Mrs. Daniel Brexton, taken Oliver, accompanied by Rory and Gavin to the races at Newmarket, and had gone to see the latest exhibit at the British Museum with Colin, in addition to her initial visit to the Royal Theater. Surprisingly, she had yet to catch even a glimpse of Alec since seeing him at the theater. She had a feeling that might change howeve...r, considering the event that she was attending later that evening. Earlier in the week she had accepted an invitation to attend the upcoming ball being hosted by Vanessa Brookshire’s parents, the Marquis and Marchioness of Hetherton. She had also agreed to William Morton’s offer to escort her to the event, even though Colin, who would also be attending, had also offered to serve as her escort. She was fairly certain, considering his apparent interest in Vanessa Brookshire that Alec would be in attendance as well. It was a thought that set her already frazzled nerves even further on edge, for the anticipation, as well as the trepidation of seeing him again had been mounting with each passing day. She knew that she needed to move on with her life and to move past her feelings for Alec, but here, in the city, knowing that he was so close; it was far easier said than done.MoreLessRead More Read Less
