What are you doing here? I asked in a low voice, careful not to make a scene in front of the girl.
The Duke is the one who hired me, and unless he dismisses me, Im not going anywhere, she answered with all the audacity in the world.

And yet, ever since that day she returned from the countryside, I had seen her step out of the carriage through the study window while that thief behind me tried to justify his actions.
