Chapter 303 

“Yes,” I say, my eyebrows going up as the machine next to me hisses and steams. “Do you do you know Heathcliff?”

“Helped Kent pick him,” Gino says, giving a deep nod towards the kitchen. I turn my head to see Kent standing in there, dressed in his suit and speaking to some of his men. “That boy doesn’t know as much about horse flesh as he thinks he does. Women, on the other hand…” he says, nodding appreciatively and raising his eyebrows at me. 

I laugh and shake my head at him. “I won’t tell him you said that,” I say, reaching for my little cup when it’s finally filled with coffee. 

“Knew I could trust you, girl,” Gino murmurs, patting me again. on his shoulder before hobbling over to the table of old men, who all raise a hand to me as I look their way. I smile back and give a little wave before heading towards my own table, where I can see Daniel already sitting. 

When I slide into my seat across from Daniel, I note that the table is smaller today – that he removed the two extra seats where Natalia and Alessi have been sitting since they arrived. I open my mouth to say good morning to him and ask about that choice, but then I my words fail me when I see Daniel slumped over his plate of eggs, his skin pale and almost green in places.

“Whoa,” I say, picking up my coffee cup and raising it to my lips. “Rough night, Danny?” 

Daniel lifts his head and glares at me a little. “Who told you lo call me that?”

Daniel just growls something noncommittal and looks down at his plate again. 

“Aww, come on, sugar,” I say, leaning forward and taking his hand. “Are you really feeling this poorly?” 

“Yes,” he sighs, sitting back in his seat but keeping my hand in his. “But Fay we have to…” 

– 

“I know,” I say, squeezing his hand and looking at him seriously. Because he’s right – we need a plan. Daniel takes a deep breath and leans forward to whisper to me, all the time getting greener, as if he might barf all over his plate. 

“Fay,” he whispers, “I don’t know what my dad has planned but I have no intention of breaking this engagement or letting Natalia have a place in this family. I went to my dad’s room this morning and he agrees –” 

“Oh,” I say, perking up a little bit and feeling a relieved. “That

“Yeah wait,” he says, looking at me narrowly. “How did you… 

And I bite my lip, realizing what I just let slip. 

“Were you…there?” he asks, glancing around to make sure that he isn’t heard – but the kitchen is full, and quite loud, and the Italians aren’t here yet, so I’m fairly sure we’re safe. “What,” he says, scrunching his face a little with distaste. “Did he like – shove you in a closet to keep you secret?”
