Chapitre 245: Last Hope

      Delaney called for Ms. Bird and began getting herself ready before the maid even arrived.

      "Please my Lady," Vincent tried gently, "Please try to understand..."

      "No," she hissed, "There is nothing to understand.  You are taking away the happiness in my life because you have some delusional belief that I might end up happier elsewhere!  I can assure you you are wrong and you are a fool."

      "Delaney..."

      "Get away from me!  If you are so eager to be done with me then let's just start now."

      The pain in his eyes nearly made her waver but Ms. Bird came in then and the distraction helped her regain her determination.
