In another suite across town at a cheaper hotel, Murray Underwood, the private investigator who’d followed Aurelia from the states hung up the phone with a tired sigh. He’d just had the last of four intense conversations with his current clientele. Client #1 was overjoyed about Aurelia’s nuptials. Client #2 was relieved because as the wife of a wealthy man, Aurelia now posed no financial threat to him. Thus he could devote his remaining funds to his physical and financial recoveries.

ReplyDeleteTrina: You got C pegged right yet again, girl. lol. To know that that scene had you all teary-eyed, too, really warms my heart. Authors like to know when they are affecting readers on that level. *Big Grin*
Suprina... this was such a tender moment post... it pulled on my heart strings.... i absolutely adore the relationship between subrina and avalon...
ReplyDelete@ Latrice, i have to agree with you about the deposits we leave behind... its amazing that we learn so much from others be it consciously or unconsciously!!!
