Falling for such a man of such depth and serenity, Gwendolyn couldn’t have been happier.

After a three–hour drive, Gwendolyn finally arrived at the Chadwick family’s cozy cottage.

To her surprise, Roselind and Jeannie were also there, helping Marina prepare a welcoming feast.

“Gwendolyn, you’re back. We were just wondering when you’d show up,” Jeannie said warmly, linking her arm through Gwendolyn’s, “The kitchen’s full of your favorites.”

“Thanks” Gwendolyn replied with polite gratitude.

“It’s what family does,” Roselind chimed in with a smile, “Come here, I want to have a word with you.”

Gwendolyn glanced at Howard, who nodded subtly. His injury was hidden beneath his crisp white shirt, invisible to the eye.

He had insisted on the drive over that his family must not know about his wound.

Once he left, Roselind dismissed Jeannie to assist Marina in the kitchen.
