“What did you just say?” Ophelia frowned, giving him a look that screamed ‘Seriously?’

“I just mean, seeing you makes me feel better,” Alaric said, putting on his best innocent face with a shrug.

“Whoa, fresh gossip right in my lap,” Ella chuckled to herself, feeling pretty pleased.

She’d been wondering why Mr. Caldwell was even here. Well, now she totally got it!

“Oh wow, Mr. Caldwell is so smitten with Boss. Honestly, I’m jealous,” Ella beamed, practically glowing. ‘At this rate, I bet we’ Il be hearing some major news soon, she thought.
