Chapter 366

The first light of dawn slowly crept over the horizon. As guests began boarding the cruise, their chatter filled the air.

Serena hadn't slept a wink all night. She had meant to change and go out to greet the guests, but her tired eyes and heavy steps nearly caused her to twist her ankle on the stairs.

Fortunately, Hugh caught her just in time. His warm palm gently encircled her slender wrist.

"Go rest," he said firmly.

"But the guests-"

"It's your birthday party. It'll go on for a while. They'll see the guest of honor eventually."

"Yes. If there's anything you don't like, I'll have it changed."
