Chapter 13

Essex, Saffron Walden. Galewick Hall.

Friday, February 26th, 2010.

Late afternoon.

Sophia and Gabriela arrived late at Leonard’s country house. When she entered the reception room, she immediately noticed Alistair sitting at the shadowed end of the room.

Seems he likes dark places no matter where he is.

Immediately Gabriela squeaked and jumped from her mother’s arms and ran in Alistair’s direction. Sophia marveled as Alistair’s face split in a wonderful grin and he pushed off his seat to pick her daughter up.

When Leonard greeted her, Sophia scowled and whispered to him, “You didn’t tell me he would be here. You set me up. And worse, by manipulating a little girl’s desire.”

“I didn’t.” He gave an impish smile. “I know you have been seeing him. Are you displeased?”

“No, of course not.” She shook her head lightly. “If you didn’t, who did? It’s obvious this is a plot.”

“Don’t tell them I told you,” he whispered back. “It was Alistair’s idea with Alice’s help.”

“Leonard! Sophia! What are the two of you gossiping about like two old maids?” Alice came to greet her, “Hello, my dear. How are you?”

“I’m fine, thank you, Alice. How are you?”

“Not bad, not bad.” Alice looked down as an excited Gabriela approached.

“Alice, where is Ariadne? She asked me to bring my DS and some new games.”

Alice smiled at the girl’s enthusiasm. “Come, I’ll take you to her. She’s outside with Michael.”
