"I'm scared... thunder is so scary..." Her voice was soft and delicate.
Ryan Gregory looked at her, intending to pull her hand away, but a hint of hesitation crept in...
Afraid of thunder?
So she stayed at his place, deliberately trying to please him, offering to pour him wine?
Knew she couldn't hold her drink, would rather get drunk than leave?
How afraid of thunder was she?
Ryan Gregory's mouth curved into a smile, "Coward."
"And not without other issues."
He had thought that the woman he married would either be a demure and genteel lady without much personality...
Or a spoiled brat who came for the money, possibly with a princess attitude even worse than his.
It never occurred to him that he would marry someone like this, a person without any pretense or false modesty.
Suddenly, he felt an urge to learn more about her.
What kind of woman was she, really?
Her world, her thoughts, her social circle, and everything about her...
He wanted to know it all!!
