Her first official day as Henry Moore's personal assistant started at exactly 8:00 AM the next day.

She arrived ten minutes early, coffee in hand and her game face on. Lindsay's desk was hers now, it was right outside Henry's office, quite pristine but empty except for a computer, phone, and a single manila folder placed dead center.

Andrea set down her bag and opened the folder.

Inside was a note in sharp, precise handwriting:

    They excused themselves and walked through the restaurant together and when the door closed behind them Mindy turned around and looked at her properly."Okay what's going on with you tonight?""Nothing," Andrea said, checking her hair in the mirror. "I'm fine."“Andrea…”"Mindy, I'm fine." she cut in with a smile that didn’t reach her eyes.She crossed her arms over her chest and held her gaze. "You have been sitting at that table for the last forty minutes with a smile that is working very hard and I know that a stab at the steak wasn’t just an accident." There was a pause. "What is going on?"Andrea looked at her reflection in the mirror for a moment. Then she turned on the tap and ran cold water over her wrists. "I'm just a little tired. My ankle is still sore and I probably should have rested more today. That's all."Mindy looked at her for a long moment without saying anything. Andrea kept her eyes on the mirror."Andrea." Her voice was quieter this time. Firmer. "I have known yo

  • Her Only Exception   Chapter 104 - DINNER FOR FIVE

    Andrea stood in front of the mirror in their bedroom and told herself she looked fine.She did look fine. The dress was good, her hair was down the way Henry liked it, and the low heeled shoes she had chosen were partly because they were nice and partly because her ankle was still tender enough that anything higher would have been a bad idea. She looked completely put together from the outside.Inside was a different matter entirely.She was still standing there when Henry appeared in the doorway behind her, already dressed, jacket on, looking effortlessly like himself the way he always did when he wasn't even trying. He crossed the room and came to stand behind her, meeting her eyes in the mirror."You look beautiful," he said."Mm-hmm, thank you babe.""You’re welcome." He reached around her and fastened the small clasp on her bracelet that she had been struggling with for the past two minutes, his fingers were warm against hers. Then he rested his hands on her shoulders and looked

    Andrea looked at him sitting on the edge of the bed beside her and took a breath."Henry, there’s something l need to tell you."He turned to look at her fully, his eyes settling on her face with focused attention. He leaned in slightly, waiting, his expression open and genuinely curious. “Okay.”“I…uh…I’m… I think I’m…” Andrea tried to let the words out but his voice from few days ago when she asked if he wanted kids kept ringing in her mind louder than ever. I like kids. Babies are cute as hell, but not right now. I want us to be ready, get married first.The words kept replaying in her head and she heard it as clearly as if he had said it in this room five seconds ago. “Andrea, are you okay?” Henry’s voice cut through her thoughts.She swallowed hard, looked down at her hands for a second. Then back up at him."I haven't been feeling well lately," she started. "Not just today, for a while now. I've been tired and off and I think I've just been trying to push through it. Pretend eve

    The jazz band switched to a slower, softer melody, and the rooftop felt a little less like a battlefield. Marcus had wandered off with Henry for ten minutes to fix the lighting cue, leaving Andrea and Mindy alone at the high-top table again. Mindy was still grinning, scrolling through her phone lik
