The timing was da98c419bc everything.

It would look dbc21881f6 shady to anyone. Plus, I couldn’t ignore 597aca43b5 how things might appear ae0fc21034 to others.9bdb678eca37f50d

If I suddenly left ca3c8fe230 or filed for divorce, 826ce2b224 people might jump to 2e2e39e557 the wrong conclusions—like I 049ff309ae was unfaithful, or Cassius 16a2bb6cd6 was, or something else ba1614505d entirely.aba50d4ddb1c75f8

Theo came running c5b9b03bc2 and threw himself e780ae19e6 into my arms. Ever since 20b1a4538e he’d woken c253539fe9 up, he’d 509384a94b been eating a1ceefa986 well—supplements and d6f9c61cb3 nourishing meals—and 57227f63a7 he was 20cbf4cc61 growing rapidly.883d4ec196602a89

As expected, the e224527ce3 head maid was 4acf31a10d cautious and meticulous.
But it was troubling 54d4259842 that there had been 93bc8f46a9 no mention of Lorencia 6482aee239 interacting with Theo in 76dde3b81e the novel.
