There was nothing more awkward than getting caught growing cozy with a married man—that was what her friends thought. Rica Morrison was a licensed lawyer that dealt with children and their broken families most of the time. So, it was beyond shock to her friends that she was even meeting with an A- man with his own family.
That was why her friends were all chuckling with their teasing eyes at Rica. The lawyer didn't even look anything but frustrated at the scene. She really didn't seem to like the idea that her friends knew of her affair with a married man.
It's just that… Rica knew exactly why she was feeling awful in their company. They kept on insinuating a romantic connection between her and a healthy male friend. What if Nicholai caught a whiff of this? She didn't even know if Darius had a real grasp of what a jealous Nicholai would be. She just prayed to the higher beings that he wouldn't take this the way her friends made it sound.
