The Trouble With Virtue: a Comfortable Wife\a Lady By Day
“Sir Noah said outside Elias’s rooms when they left him to dress, and Josephine smiled, because she knew that would irritate him more than anything.
“You will need a London man of business now that your plans have taken such an unexpected turn,” she told him. “How fortuitous that you may receive a shipyard after all, and under much less ambitious terms than you originally contemplated. I expect once you reaccustom yourself to London once again, you will be reminded of its many benefits and y...ou will hardly miss your Mediterranean life.”
“You say that as if you plan to simply stand by while Elias signs the shipyard over to me.”
“It has nothing to do with me. Elias is master of his own affairs.” But there would be no signing of the shipyard over to Sir Noah.
“It seemed to me he is master of little more than a whore’s quim and several bottles of port. Tell me, is that the reason for your employment, Mr.MoreLess
