A couple of hours later, supper was over and the girls were heading up to play with their dolls upstairs. Efua wanted to get back to her grandmother’s house so she could spend the evening with her family, and Jason walked her out to the driveway so his driver could take her over.
She’d come over this afternoon as a way of being nice to the girls, so it was only fair that his driver take her there and back.
Jason would have been happy to let his driver take her anywhere she wanted, but she had always been scrupulous about not taking advantage on her day off.
He felt at loose ends and out of sorts after a crazy week, and he justwished things would settle down again, all of the various parts of his life return to their proper slots.
They didn’t seem likely to, though. Not while Victoria was causing trouble the way she was.
He must have been a fool for ever liking her, for ever thinking she’d be a good match for him.
