Time seemed to move so slowly as Serena sat on the sofa of her chamber. With nothing to do but wait, she could only let her mind wonder for what happens next.
At this point, she was unsure of what Geoffrey was thinking. He hasn't confronted her about the truth, so maybe he was still trying to confirm it from other sources? No. Geoffrey was not that kind of man. If he wants to know, he could simply ask her himself. So, most likely, since he didn't ask, he already knew and confirmed the truth.
So why did he act like that last night? This morning? Why did he still treat her so kindly? Like he still cares? Like he still… loves her? Does he still want… her? For things between them to remain as they were before he left? Impossible. No sane man would ever accept what she did just like that.
