Chapter 182: Crazy Woman Calling
Talia decided to sleep in the hotel for the night and so she took a different car from Louis and Cordelia. The road was clear and little droplets of snow were melting as soon as they touched the window panel of the car making her view all blurred. The lights in the outside looked like colourful blobs that reflected prettily in the droplets running through the glass. Propping her cheek in her hand, she watched as the car moved forward.
"You should not give up. A man is fair game until he is married. It seems like Mr. Sinclair is very interested in you," Mrs. Carter said with a wink before they left the dinner. Well... She whispered secretly in her ears while others looked at them weirdly, to be precise.
"You’re misunderstanding, Mrs. Carter, " Talia tried to cover up. She thought the First Lady might have noticed him kissing her. "He was feeling fuzzy with all the drinks he had and that’s why may be he-"
"I have eyes, my dear," Mrs.Carter smiled. "He might have been drunk- you weren’t."
Talia really couldn’t say anything and left with a smile. She really couldn’t think that she let her feelings towards Arthur show that obviously.
Or Mrs. Carter is actually smart to see through her act!
Talia leaned back comfortably in her seat and loosened the seat belt that made her feel suffocated. But alas! Even after she loosened it, she felt suffocated. Taking in a deep breath, she closed her eyes.
A man is fair game until he is married - she heard Rebecca say this phrase a lot. Mrs. Carter repeated it to her.
But is it the truth though? A man who is in a relationship with another woman - how can he be fair game?
She could never accept that statement. If you can sway that man who cannot honour his relationship with another woman, some other woman will be able to away his heart away from you too!
This was Talia’s belief.
