Carabella had initially wanted to find a way to keep Jefferson out of her personal matters, but now her plan had failed. While working at the office, Jefferson wouldn't leave her alone anymore, still traumatized by the last incident. Even though she'd lied, he didn't seem to believe her. Should she have used a more plausible excuse to get him to believe her, that her swollen cheek wasn't the result of an assault?
Carabella actually liked this situation. Jefferson no longer cared about Larissa, and wherever she went, he would always be with her. But on the other hand, if this continued, how would she ever find the money to pay off her father's debt?
Several days had passed since the attack, and she sometimes found herself lost in thought while working, gazing at her lover's handsome face, still glowing. If she told him the truth, would he immediately help her avenge her father?
"Ella, what are you thinking about?"
