Night came and Gavin and Myrtle departed, leaving Adrienne alone with her husband. The kitchen was already sparkly clean when their guests left, leaving Adrienne no excuses but to join her husband at the balcony where they could see the cityscapes at night. She quietly observed Lennox without saying anything.
Lennox had always been good looking even when she first met him, but perhaps, their long separation had added some charm on his face. His temperament was better and his entire being gave off a confident and authoritative aura to others. However, he was as handsome Adrienne remembered him to be.
Lennox smiled at him and took her hand before gathering her into his arms with her back pressed against his chest. She felt him kiss her crown and sighed behind her.
