Half an hour later…
Back at his lodgings, Landen complained bitterly, “Because of them, I missed my midnight snack. I’m starving.”
Jennifer replied evenly, “It’s too late, Young Master. Eating at this hour will make you gain weight.”
Landen stared at her. “Didn’t you say you’d make me something once we got home?”
Jennifer didn’t flinch. “To help you stay in good shape, I’ve decided to take that back. It’s late. Go wash up and sleep. You still have work tomorrow.”
In his heart, Landen cursed Timothy a thousand times over.
If Timothy refused to let him live peacefully, then Landen wouldn’t let him enjoy peace either.
