Jonathan leaned down and kissed her cheek, his lips brushing her ear. “A little. You can payback tonight.”
A faint pink blush crept up Estelle’s ears. She gave him a sly look. “Deal.”
As they walked back to the room, Yvonne emerged from a side corridor. She watched them go, then called over a waiter. “Which

Manley was dressed in a vibrant turquoise shirt and linen trousers. The flamboyant colors did nothing to overshadow his striking

He drew closer, his expression cold. “You'd best abandon whatever little schemes you're cooking up, Ms. Yvonne. If anything goes
