“Give me a few days, Ellie.


    I’ll arrange a proper ce for you to stay as soon as possible.


    ”


    Eleanor was keen and was able to sense the reluctance in Nathaniel’s demeanor.


    The disgruntled feeling in her grewrger.


    How was it that Lucinda could live in that vi as Mrs.


    Roberts for three years, but Eleanor was not even allowed to step inside?


    But Eleanor didn’t dare to ask that out loud.


    She knew that Nathaniel wasn’t fond of girls who get all jealous and ill-tempered.


    “It’s okay with me if I don’t move into the vi.


    I’ve just been feeling lonely here.


    Can you stay with me tonight? Just this one night.


    ”


    Eleanor’s voice was so sweet and her expression looked so woeful that it should have been hard for any man to even consider refusing her.

    “Nate! I knew you-“


    But before Eleanor could even finish her words of excitement, she tilted her head up and realized that the person that walked inside the room was Flynn, not Nathaniel.


    The look of depression came back to her again.


    Flynn felt sorry for Eleanor when he had just one nce at her somber expression, but he was there to confirm only one thing.


    “Miss Turner, I’m so sorry to disturb you right now.


    I just have something to ask you and it’s quite urgent.


    ”


    “If it’s urgent, of course I’ll answer seriously.


    What is it?”


    Flynn felt his heart ache once more for Eleanor when his eyes met her forced smile.


    Then, in a low and serious tone, he asked, “Last night, after Lucinda got off her work, she was attacked by a mob of gangsters.


    Did you know about this?”


    “What?! Oh god, is she okay?” Eleanor’s expression was of genuine shock.
