The day quickly turned into an evening. Corinne arrived as she came to prepare dinner, and when she walked over, Shirley could see that her sharp gaze was filled with resentment.

“I’ll stay and attend to Mr. Flintstone tonight. You can leave,” Corinne said to her. Shirley frowned. “The captain didn’t tell me to leave.”
