Chapter Sixteen

Catherine

I HADN’T SEEN MUCH of Timothy all week. The bigger projects that have been hindering progress are now at the forefront of my attention. I needed to get my part done so I could get Amber in for the decorating phase. The restoration was only half the battle. The interior design element would be the final stage to blend old and new without either overpowering the other. That was where Amber would come in and tie it all together.

I glanced around at the room I had been working in. The crew we brought in to do the renovation were working well together. We were ahead of schedule, which never happened. The house had already been transformed. Yes, there was still some work to do, but it was coming along nicely. I looked at the walls that had been freshly painted. The floors had been polished to a high shine. I couldn’t help but feel a swell of pride. Look how far I’ve come since that embarrassing tumble over the garden wall. I’ve proven to myself and my crew that I am capable of this. More importantly, I’ve proven it to Timothy.

I knew I was damn lucky he took a chance on me after our initial meeting.

A tinge of sadness crept into my heart, knowing that all of this would come to an end at the close of summer. Sure, I still had another month or two left, but the thought of walking away from this tremendous project and all the hours of hard work was bittersweet. It had been a dream job. I didn’t know if there was ever going to be another job that challenged me quite like this.

But part of me had to wonder if it was the job I was going to miss or the man that was paying me? I pushed the thought aside, dismissing it as my mind playing tricks on me again. Timothy was a difficult man to figure out. He was very cold but there were moments of warmth that always left me confused. The majority of the time he was in the house, he hid in his office. He barely said anything to me or anyone else. I wasn’t sure if he was serious about going to Scott’s wedding with me. I had a feeling it was said as a joke. I wasn’t planning on going. And I definitely wasn’t going to ask him about it. I was good pretending the conversation never happened.

“I’ll see you guys Monday,” I said to the painters in the hall. “Good job. Make sure you guys clean up before you go. We don’t want to leave the family with a mess to walk around over the weekend.”

“See you later, Catherine.”

I headed into town to run errands before meeting with Amber. When I stepped into her modest storefront, I was surprised to find Bennet waiting for me. “Bennet?” I said, wondering why he was in Amber’s store.

“Timothy tried to talk to you at the manor, but you had already left for the day,” he explained.
