CHAPTER SEVEN

‘I’LL see you later,’ Diego told Rachel brusquely as he shut the car door. When the limousine pulled away she turned her head and stared back at him, desperate to imprint his face on her mind one last time—because she had no intention of being at the flat when he returned.

Back in London, it took her less than twenty minutes to change into her jeans, hang up her Ascot outfit in the wardrobe with the other clothes Diego had bought her, and place the diamond choker back in its velvet box. By the time he walked into the penthouse and discovered it empty, she was at Paddington Station, boarding a train to Gloucester.

Rachel spent the following few days on tenterhooks, waiting for Diego to return to Hardwick, certain that he would be furious with her for running out on him. She had made it clear that she was ending their affair, but could she trust herself to resist him if he tried to persuade her back into his bed?

In the event her sleepless nights were for nothing. Diego was due to spend one more week at Hardwick Polo Club, but on Monday morning, when she arrived at the stables, she learned from the other stable-hands that he wasn’t coming back and had already flown to his polo school in the States.

‘How was your trip to Cornwall?’ Alex asked her.

‘Cornwall…?’ She stared at him blankly, her insides churning at the knowledge that Diego had gone and that she would never see him again.

‘To see your dad—Diego told us you’d gone to visit him for a few days,’ Alex said cheerfully.

‘Oh…yes…it was fine,’ she mumbled, shaken that Diego had lied on her behalf. He had known she hadn’t wanted anyone at Hardwick to find out about their affair and the realisation that he had taken steps to protect her from being the subject of gossip caused her heart to splinter.

She had done the right thing in refusing to go to New York with him, she reassured herself that night as she tossed restlessly beneath the sheet, unable to sleep in her airless caravan. In a few weeks’ time Diego would return to his native Argentina—and she would have had to come back to England and start all over again, looking for a job and somewhere to live. Another month in his bed was all he had ever offered, and she would never forget the hard expression in his eyes when he’d challenged her to ‘take it or leave it’.
