Upon hearing this, Rose hastened her movements. "Almost done, Mrs. Covington, just give me five more minutes!"

"No rush, I was just asking," Mrs. Covington replied.

'Sorry about that, Ms. Graham. I couldn't come up with any other excuse to escape.' Moira expressed some regret inwardly.

After sorting out her thoughts, Moira made a conscious effort to control her feelings for Barclay.

She knew she had to stop staring at him constantly and getting lost in her thoughts.

Moira could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
