He didn't press further. He knew the servant had been working for Daisy for years and was very loyal to her.

In other words, she wouldn't spill the beans.

Albert couldn't care less whether Daisy was home or not. He actually felt more at ease when she was out as there was no need to put on a show and play bedroom games with her.

They had never consummated the marriage since their wedding night.

Initially, Albert figured it was his issue. So he tested the waters with ‘other women.

It turned out that he still had it.

He just wasn't into Daisy.

Climbing the stairs, Albert frowned, pondering why.

Daisy was attractive. s@xy, even. But she just didn't doit for him.

As soon as he pushed open the bedroom door, it hit him like a ton of bricks.

It was because of Jessie. Specifically, her tears! Thinking of Jessie got Albert feeling a tad blue. He yanked off his tie and chucked it onto the bed, and then flopped down on the massive

mattress, motionless.

Right then, he was yearning for his days back in Duefron.

Compared to that, life here felt dull. Work piled up at the office and his missus never seemed to go without makeup, even in her sleep...

It was starting to feel suffocating, the same old routine day in, day out...

With that on his mind, Albert lit up a cigarette and took a drag.

Not long after, a ping from his inbox grabbed his attention. He opened it up to find an email from Melissa.

He hadn't expected Melissa to be burning the midnight oil, especially on aweekend...

As Albert mulled over giving Melissa a raise, the last few lines of her email knocked him sideways! Something was up with Jessie's family?! After a moment's thought, Albert dialed Melissa's number. Cutting to the chase, he asked straight out, “What's the deal with the Greens? Jessie's mom... hit her?” Melissa had been waiting for his call, clutching the phone tightly.

“Yes! Jessie got a hard slap across the face! She left with her mom, all red and swollen?”
