The man raised an eyebrow and stood up, making his way to the edge of the small riverboat, the kind used for
carrying modest cargo.
Peering into the water, he spotted a figure floating and let out a chuckle
“Looks like we ve hit the jackpot Tell Omar we’ve found the man, he said with a smirk
Quickly, they hauled Fitch aboard
Fitch was out cold, burning up with fever, his wounds festering in dire need of proper care
Abner had just gotten off the phone with Omar and finding the man so soon had put him in a fairly good mood
His gaze fell on the figure sprawled on the deck, and he frowned
If they didn’t get a doctor soon, the guy was as good as dead.
And the Haskins family was all aflutter, planning Fitch’s funeral, unaware he was bobbing in the water this whole
time
Abner had no desire to untangle those high society secrets
Dock this thing and get a doc for him he commanded
Mr Olson, shouldn’t we send a servant instead?”

After a long pause he asked, “Aside from you, Omar, and Abner, does anyone else know?
“It shouldn’t be out Mr. Casson says they just fished Fitch out.”
“Comelia have Zoey look after him
She thought she’d heard wrong. Zoey?
But lans word was law, so she agreed without protest
When leaving the Casson estate, she pondered a moment before sidling up to Omar and circling his neck with her
arms, planting a quick kiss on his lips.
Quid pro quo
“Mr Casson, I might need your help again someday”
It was all about solidifying connections always handy for future needs
Omar said nothing his breath quickering
His eyes traveled from her lips down to her neck, then to her legs, growing hotter with each sweep
He swallowed hard, suppressing the surge of desire within him.
Til take you home
No need Omar I see you next time
She stepped back leaving him quickly
Omar knew she was just using him leveraging his power.

‘Cornelia
His voice involuntarily uttered her name as he grabbed her waist bercely.
Comelia tensed, taken aback
Then, with a sly smile, she teased. Have you changed your mind about having some fun?
He held her in silence for ten minutes before letting go
If something like this happens again dont go to others Come to me
“Sure” she agreed with a smile, grabbing her bag and nodding at tim
