Chapter 37 – Yet Another Scheme

• “How are you?” Esme asked her daughter as soon as she opened the door and saw her standing there with her luggage.
• Esme called a maid to help Vernice with her things, while she and her daughter went straight to the bedroom. She pulled her to sit down, worry written all over her face.
• After what happened between her and Hans, Vernice called her mother, telling her she wouldn’t come home for some weeks. When she said some weeks, she didn’t expect her daughter would be away for almost three months.
