The rancher's second-choice wife

Chapter 10


Poppy bit her lip exhausting. The considered Valerian Rossfield nearly being killed harm. However that was solely extra motive to depart this job.

“The incident scared the board a lot they really demanded {that a} new clause be inserted in his contract. Any private service that Valerian required should solely be offered by girls and solely in environments the place we will absolutely assure his security.”

“Then perhaps one other girl—-“

“No different girl is such as you.”

Poppy checked out Heather in bewilderment, and Heather needed to pause for a number of moments as she picked her phrases with care. “The general public tends to color black-or-white footage of individuals like Mr. Rossfield. As a result of they see him skydiving and doing all these different loopy sports activities that he loves, they’ve assumed he is simply as reckless throughout. However he isn’t. Mr. Rossfield is a person of very inflexible ideas, and so he’ll by no means be the sort to stray. Most different girls, nevertheless, refuse to simply accept this.”

Heather appeared on the youthful girl meaningfully. “And that is how you are not like different girls, Ms. Cortez. You alone have finished your best possible to behave accordingly—-“

“However that is precisely my drawback.” Poppy’s face was already flaming on the considered what she was about to admit. “I am actually making an attempt my finest to, um, act and even suppose accordingly, however I do not suppose…I do not suppose I can stick with it.”

Heather needed to battle again a smile on the method Poppy’s voice stored getting smaller till it was barely audible by the top. This younger girl was so adorably pure, she nearly appeared too good to be true.

“Attempting is the operative phrase right here,” Heather stated gently. “You are the one one who tried. Everybody else did not.”

Poppy shook her head. “I simply do not suppose…”

“Might I ask you one thing private, Ms. Cortez?”

Poppy nodded warily.

“You are incomes much more than you normally do because you took Mr. Rossfield as a consumer, have not you?”

Poppy nodded.

“And has this more money been of nice use?”

Poppy might solely nod once more for the reason that “further” cash Heather spoke of had been life-changing. She had been capable of repay an enormous chunk of her faculty mortgage, and he or she was more likely to be debt-free earlier than the yr’s finish…if she stored the billionaire as her consumer. However at what price?

“You are weighing your choices,” Heather noticed, “and that is ok for me. Your thoughts was clearly made up earlier, however now…”

“I wish to maintain Mr. Rossfield as a consumer,” Poppy admitted, “and even my boss would not hear of getting me changed. However…”

“However?”

“I do not suppose it is the fitting factor to do,” Poppy stated helplessly, “with how I really feel about…issues,” she ended lamely.

Heather might solely shake her head at simply how pure Poppy was…however that was much more motive for her to forestall the youthful girl from quitting.

“How about we make a deal?” Heather recommended at a whim. “You retain us a consumer, and I am going to ensure you’ll by no means cross the road with Mr. Rossfield. Lets give it a strive?”
