The next day Thea woke up with a headache. Last night was chaos. After her mother got to know that the man she thought was Rees's childhood friend was actually the heir of the O'Dell family, she freaked out, to say the least.
Edwin was very uncomfortable when Mrs Green kept apologising over and over. Thea should have thought about the probability of her mother and Edwin meeting each other before. Alas!
Although Mrs Green was shell shocked at the revelation, she still thought that he and Ruth were the perfect match. Of course, now she could not say it out loud or hope for that miracle to happen because no elite had ever married a poor in the history that she knew.
"Are you ready for your first-day love?" Rees asked after kissing her on the cheek after they both got ready for the work.
"Yes." Thea smiled.
Rees pulled her in a hug, and Thea enjoyed the feel of it.
