Christina blinked. “I would like that.”

“Let’s go, then.” Nathaniel said.

Noticing the exchange, Sebastian felt a tinge of admiration.

Madison, too, managed to deduce the reason. “I’ll make the reservations,” she said with a small smile.

Madison poured her another glass, smiling as she did so. “You must not drink very often, Mrs. Hadley.”
