Elliot Sheridan was woken by her movements. He grabbed her shoulders and rolled over to press down on her, but Georgia Thorne hastily stopped him. "Don't. I have to go to work today."
Besides, she was truly exhausted from last night. He had said three times, and it was exactly three times. There was no room for negotiation at all!
'What an unrestrained man!'
Elliot finally let her go, but not because of her pleading.
Georgia emerged from the bathroom after her shower, already dressed.
'This man must be up to something,' she thought. 'Why else would he have a change of clothes ready for her?'
Elliot was standing by the window, still on the phone.
A cigarette was pinched between his fingers, the line of his handsome profile taut. He was a mature, steady man.
Georgia found her phone and saw several messages, all from Nancy Hughes.
Nancy had sent her an image on WeChat, followed by three huge exclamation points.
Is this you?!
