Ellie could feel her dark mood lightening as Olga had slowly changed her point of view . She no longer felt as if she was drowning at the bottom of a well . She felt a sense of hope . Olga was right to seize the opportunity . "My great thanks for giving me the pep talk I needed to get my head on straight . I think I knew it in my heart that you would know the right thing to say . I am too shy to really speak of these things to others unprompted . "
Advertis.e.m.e.ntOlga 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 .

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 pushing 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 fashioned . But the affair was not something he wanted to spoil his relationship with her .
For her, everything needed to be perfect .
