He didn’t dwell on it, sat in the chair across from her, and gave her some work instructions. Then, he continued where he had left off. The study fell into silence, with only the sound et pages turning.
For the next hour, she didn’t lift her head even once. She was so focused that she lost track of everything else. Now and then, Dominic would glance at her with a smirk.
