Chapter 159: She cannot hibernate.

She did not even have to think about the answer, it was already available. "Didn’t she run around half-naked in our lake last week? Now is the time for those pictures and a short video to make an appearance."

When he did not respond, she opened her eyes and sat up, noticing that he was frowning. Her mind immediately associated it with what she intended to do with Emmah and she thought that perhaps Roland did not agree with it. "What’s wrong? Do you think that I am cruel? I am a woman after all and here I am, getting ready to ruin another woman."

"That’s not it," he slowly rotated her right foot before moving to the left one. His eyes were distant, gazing int he direction of the cackling fire place. "I am thinking ahead. picturing what will happen after those pictures and video is released.

If you put the wound on her face together with the public shaming and scandal which will no doubt follow, I think she will not leave the house for a while. If she doesn’t leave the house, how will you deal with her?"

Sigrid was impressed, Roland would have made a great attorney. He was right, Emmah could not be allowed to go into hiding otherwise the mission would drag on and Sigrid would risk losing another baby or dying like she was supposed to in the novel.

"She cannot hibernate, its not good for me__us. I guess I will be sending her some face cream in your name. We will make sure that everyone knows that you helped your savior when she was in such a difficult time. It will be better if you are overheard saying something like, there is more to women that what is beneath their clothes. Miss Emmah behaved inappropriately but she has a good heart and her careless mistake is worth overlooking.

Not only will it make it look like you are on her side and confuse her more as she will once again be undecided between you, Benjamin and Roland but it will make women respect, love and support you. Your popularity will outgrow Benjamin’s."

It frightened Roland how his wife’s mind worked sometimes. Every time he took two steps ahead, she took ten more and thought beyond the scope of his imagination.
