Moira blinked. "Need me to walk you out?"

Even though Moira had escorted Barclay out many times before, for some reason, she still felt a bit bashful. "Yeah."

'Hey, Mr. Covington and Mrs. Covington sure have a strong bond,' he mused.

Moira halted at the doorstep of the villa. "Take care on your way."

She waved her hand gently.

Barclay nodded. "I'll be back in a couple of days."

"Alright."

He might have been putting on an act, but the way his eyes met hers always gave her this uncanny feeling that they truly were a married couple. Being handsome really could be deceiving.
