Mary blinked. “I beg your pardon?”

“This intrigue with the Prince of Wales. It doesn’t make you special. It doesn’t make you unique. And it’s certainly not a way of gaining promotion. Not in my household.”

Mary took a deep breath. “Mrs Shaw, I don’t understand your accusations. I’m not carrying on an intrigue with the Prince of Wales.”

“Then why has he asked for you?”

“Now?”

“Yes, now.”

“Is

it

possible

that

there’s

been

a

misunderstanding?”

Mrs Shaw’s eyes narrowed. “Playing the innocent doesn’t become you, Quinn. I know what you’re about. I suppose you think yourself very clever, skirting round the rules like this. But you mark my words—” She shook a bony finger at Mary. “One misstep…”

Mary suppressed a sigh. Bit her tongue to keep from reminding her, You said this yesterday. There was nothing she could say to persuade Mrs Shaw that, far from this being her ambition, she wanted none of the Prince’s attentions.
