"All right." Aurelia nodded slightly and headed upstairs. She was truly exhausted.
Matthew watched as Aurelia ascended the stairs, then he settled back down on the couch.
His gaze fell upon the blanket on the floor.

Indeed, it was difficult to hail a taxi here. She had promised David to complete the restoration of the two ancient paintings as soon as possible. The past couple of days had been busy, causing significant delays in progress.

After smanipulation by ghostwriters, Melanie and Curtis had their names cleared!" Aurelia let out a cold chuckle. "They must have spent quite a bit of money to cup with this move." "Play with fire and you'll get burned. They'll surely get their comeuppance! My dear Auri, I'm absolutely livid with their actions. You mustn't standup tonight!" "All right; let's not miss our meeting at six in the evening." After hanging up the phone, Aurelia noticed that Matthew was watching her.
Her lips moved slightly in response. Is this the end of the affair? She felt a complex mix of emotions and was unsure of what to say to Matthew.
