章 36: Chapter 36

The next morning, Eleanor woke up feeling refreshed. She saw Michael had gotten out of bed but was sitting fully dressed on one of the couches reviewing the paperwork he'd set down last night. When she sat up, he looked over at her.

"Good morning, Eleanor. Did you sleep well?"

She nodded with a faint smile. She glanced around the room, but didn't see Lucas anywhere.

"He had to go attend to his duties. What happened last night... can't... happen again," stated Michael.
