Still, on second thought, she figured that he could do nothing in bed, anyway, so he could stay all he wanted.

Then again, she would not want to stay with that man under the same roof for too long.

In her book, it was time to speed up her plans.

Once Anthony fell for her, Genevieve would make Andrea lose her most–coveted title as the lady of the Hoffman family and make Lauraine pay.
