บท 55: No one is ever safe

When Mr. Sullivan's carriage entered Meadow town, Eve turned to tell him, "I had a wonderful afternoon today. Thank you for inviting me for lunch." 

"You have yourself to thank, Genevieve. I know you worked really hard to be a governess and that you have been looking for families to hire you," Noah offered his never-ending encouraging words to her. "Not to forget, I did tell you that I felt bad for not being able to invite you to the celebration of me being a Duke."

A smile spread on Eve's lips, and she nodded. She was still grateful that Noah, who wasn't just the Duke's son was now a Duke, had taken time from his busy schedule to eat with her. She said, 

"Next time I shall treat you, Noah," stated Eve, and Noah didn't reject the idea. 

"I look forward to it," he replied smiling and watched her. The golden blonde strands of her hair were no less than a ray of sun. Her face held a pure expression when she looked outside the window.
