Olga smiled easily. "I'm always happy to help wherever I can. I'm really happy that my words did untangle your thoughts. I know how harrowing it can be to be there. Henry is a lovely man worth having at your side."

"I do agree." Ellie nodded along with her. Her voice was much more a.s.sured than before. It wasn't an easy task by any means. She was going to try to make a man fall for her without hurting his trust. She shuddered at the thought that he would think that she was just another lady who was after his money. It was harrowing to think she would have to wait for him to come to her. It was rea.s.suring to know though that he was close enough to let her persuade him to see her in another light. Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.

She knew that she had a shadowy rival waiting for her in the wings. The other woman was no doubt more beautiful and well-suited to the role. Ellie had the advantage of being a compet.i.tor who didn't give up until the final lap.

Henry shuddered awake with heavy breathing. He looked around him with alarm before pus.h.i.+ng the covers away from him roughly at the solace of being alone. No one had come in to check on him unexpectedly again. Michael had finally trained the new staff. 

He looked down and remembered that in his dream he had been on a yacht dancing with Nadia. She had been wearing something stringy and silver that had shown off her a.s.sets well. She looked like she had been dipped in the fabric and it had been something that had stuck with him for all this time. He wished that he could go to her to relieve himself of build up tension. Her touch was always like a static shock playing on his hands. Henry always wanted more from her, but he remembered that he was attached at the moment. It would be too complex to explain. 

When Nadia returned to the city from her movie shoot in a couple months, he would likely still have legal ties to Ellie. He wouldn't be the sober widower that he had hoped would capture her attention. He wouldn't be a bachelor for her to consider. There was no way she would consider a date with him with that looming over his head. He knew it would be a bit old fas.h.i.+oned. But the affair was not something he wanted to spoil his relations.h.i.+p with her. 

For her, everything needed to be perfect.
