After saying that, Betsy Russell went straight to her bedroom without looking back.
Once back in her room, Betsy quickly closed the door and collapsed on her bed, exhausted. Thinking about the way Thad Drew had looked at her earlier, her heart was filled with mixed emotions.
Betsy was worried that if things continued like this, she might become hopelessly infatuated with Thad's tenderness, especially since he was becoming more and more involved in her life.
No, she couldn't fall in love with Thad!
After freshening up, Betsy lay in bed, waiting for the next day. When she awoke, she smelled the delicious scent of food.
Betsy sat at her vanity, absentmindedly applying makeup.
When Betsy had finished, she opened her door to see Thad carrying breakfast to the dining table.
At this point, Thad was treating her home as if it was his own.
At that moment, Betsy understood the saying that conquering a man's stomach was the way to his heart; it was equally true for women.
