I walked back to the bedroom, closed the door, and took a shower numbly. Then I wrapped myself in

He held my hand and calmly wrote on the note paper in front of the table, “Elliana came specially in the morning to deliver the documents to me. I saw that she came in a hurry without having breakfast, so I asked her to stay and have breakfast together.”
