To Kris’s annoyance, Zeke refused to leave Thalassa alone for the rest of the day. Even after they finished discussing business in the study, the man stayed through lunch and dinner. He only left when both Thalassa and Luisa told him they wanted to call it a night.

Kris went to bed in a very bad mood. It had been three days since he started living in the house, and yet he felt like he had made zero progress with Thalassa, even without Zeke standing in his way.

The following day was a Monday, which meant Thalassa and Luisa had to go to work.

Kris was sitting at the dining table working on his laptop which Alden had carried along for him. He’d come to sit there early hoping to catch some time with Thalassa before she left for work, but she’d walked right out of the house after telling Luisa that she was going to get breakfast at a cafe on her way to the Fashion House.

Luisa had also left after making him some pancakes and helping him with his bandage and sling. So now Kris was alone in the house.

He probably could’ve gone to work, but his shoulder wasn’t healed enough, and he would need to get some sleep during the day. Millie would be forwarding everything he needed directly to him.
