A Little Bit Sinful(75)

“About?”

“Do you truly love me?”

“Yes.” He pulled her to him, squeezing her tight. “I love you, Chrissy. Or do you prefer Clarissa?”

“No, I’ve grown quite fond of Chrissy. But only with you.”

“Yes, only with me. Forever only with me.”





Epilogue


Clarissa ran up the stairs of Rodale’s as quickly as her skirts would allow her. If Justin would simply agree to purchase her some trousers, this would be so much easier. She clutched her reticule to her chest and she reached the top and opened the outer offices.

Clipps looked up from his new desk and smiled. “Morning Mrs. R.”

“Morning, Basil. Can’t talk, have an important letter for Justin,” she said. She breezed through into the larger office, the office she now shared with her husband.

“My love, I told you I would be home by dinner.” He grinned sinfully at her. “Couldn’t wait to see me?”

She retrieved the envelope from her reticule. “This came in the post.” She handed it to him.

He looked down and then back up to her. “It’s from Paris.”

She nodded. “Read it!”

He opened it and stood there quietly for several moments. Then he looked up at her. “It’s her,” he said with a smile.

Clarissa smiled and then threw her arms around her husband. “I knew we’d find her. What does she say?”

“That she would love to come to London and meet me. She has other children. It would seem I have two sisters.”

“Oh, Justin, I love you so much,” she said. Her heart swelled so much she feared it would burst.

“I couldn’t have done this without you. I never would have looked in the right place.” He glanced back at the letter. “She seems quite happy I found her.”

“I’m certain she is. She’ll love you. It’s simply impossible not to.”
