Chapter 27:
Panting slightly from the dance, Kallie felt a rush of energy. Jake led Kallie away from the dance floor, her cheeks glowing with a flush of excitement. Kallie’s smile, now brighter and more sincere, showed a spark of her old self reemerging.
Turning to Jake, Kallie gestured, saying he should check on Sarah since Sarah might be impatient. Jake gave her a long, evaluating look. “Stay here,” he instructed, his tone gentle yet firm.
Kallie nodded in agreement, her eyes following him as he melded into the crowd. She accepted a glass of orange juice from a passing waiter, feeling a twinge of sadness as she watched him disappear.
It surprised Kallie, this chance to be by Jake’s side again, especially after their marriage had seemed to set their paths so firmly apart.
Had her younger self foreseen the insecurities this marriage would bring, would she have felt deep disappointment?
Kallie’s thoughts were interrupted by a gentle tap on her arm.
“Hello, I’m Cyril Walker,” a young man greeted her with a polite smile. He had an air of familiarity about him. “I’ve worked with Mr. Reeves before, but this is my first time meeting you. Would you care to dance with me?”
Cyril held out his hand to Kallie, his invitation clear.
Kallie’s eyes widened in surprise as she was asked to dance by someone else. She couldn’t help but wonder if Jake would be upset by this. However, since the man claimed to be Jake’s client, she reasoned that it should be all right.
Kallie enjoyed the rhythm of the dance floor and had noticed others changing partners frequently. Thus, she nodded in agreement and placed her hand in Cyril’s waiting palm.
