After Cornelia and Elvis had left, Maja grabbed Carol's hand with an urgency that brooked no delay.

"Spill it, what's up?" Carol shook her head, her gaze drifting to the fruit bowl on the coffee table. "Just wanted to check on you." "You drove here yourself?" "Yep." Carol found herself struggling to broach the subject of Felix.

Back when Maja was still playing cat and mouse with lan, she always raved about how wonderful Felix was. But in the end, she was left with egg on her face.

Now, it seemed she couldn't bring herself to mention Felix to anyone.

The whole social circle was waiting to see her fall flat on her face again - and they had already had a good chuckle once before. Carol forced a smile, then heard Maja's voice cut through the tension. "Felix isn't still on his knees at home, is he?" "How did you know?" "He showed up out of the blue at Greenfield Gardens yesterday. Dropped to his knees with a thud in front of me, crying and begging. I thought I was watching a soap opera." A situation that was suffocatingly awkward was suddenly turned on its head by Maja's flippancy, and Carol felt an unexpected urge to laugh.

The weight on her shoulders seemed to lift a little.

Maja motioned to a servant to prepare sfruit.

Glancing at the wall clock, he triple-checked, "I'll be hby six in the evening." While stepping into his shoes at the entryway, he continued to reel off reminders. "Remember to take your medication. I've scheduled a check-up with the doctor for tomorrow at noon. And that stroller you wanted? It should be air-shipped here by this afternoon. As for those flowers you asked for, they have such a short bloom t- just three days - so they won't be fresh by the tthey get here." After slipping on his shoes and opening the door, he suddenly noticed Carol. "Oh, when did Carol get here?" Carol, who had been feeling a bit down, was now completely speechless.

Here she was, as clear as day, and lan had completely overlooked her presence? — 1lan glanced at the clock again tto waste. He instructed everyone else in the villa to take good care of their guest and hurried off to his car. ŚwWatching this play out, Carol couldn't help but feel a twinge of envy.

"lan's really something," she muttered.

Maja took a sip of water from a glass beside her. "Wasn't it you who toldnever to get involved with him?" Carol was taken aback, memories flooding back of a twhen lan was hell-bent on getting a divorce.

Who could have predicted things would turn out like this? Maja didn't know whether to plead Felix's case or not.

But letting the two of them continue this ? Where would it end? "Have sfruit. You look like you've got dark circles under your eyes. Didn't sleep well last night?" Carol wasn't in the mood to eat, shaking her head as the sound of rain grew louder outside.

With a frown, she sprawled out on the couch, choosing to escape into sleep. It was a shameful retreat, but effective.

She hadn't rested well the previous night, and now, with the warmth of the living room enveloping her, she fell into a deep sleep.

When she woke, it was already evening, and Maja had left dinner for her.

Eating absentmindedly, Carol found herself reluctant to return home.

Maja had prepared a guest room for her, and without Felix around, Carol slept soundly.

After staying for two days, she et figured Felix wouldn't have stayed on his knees that long. Probably, he had gotten up once he realized she wasn't coming back. S But the man was sometimes an enigma to her. So when the servant called to say Felix had fainted from kneeling for nearly four days, Carol thought she was hallucinating.

"Ms. Miller, the master has been kneeling for almost four days. He's just fainted and has been feverish." Carol's heart clenched, and she abruptly ended the call.
