The Mistress's Guide

"I have a business back home," Ethan said as he threw on a coat and got out of bed. He buttoned his cuffs, his handsome face looking sharp and severe. "You and Nanny will fly back first. I need to go to Germany to visit my father."

Ah, yes, his father had broken three of his ribs just because he hadn't visited in five years.

Business back home?

Was it to deal with the Carter Group?

"Oh," Lily nodded lightly.

Ethan struggled as he tied his tie, likely aggravating his injury.

Seeing this, Lily stepped forward, stood on her tiptoes, and helped him with the tie. Ethan stared at her intensely, his long fingers lifting her chin. "Lily, behave yourself while I'm gone."

They'd settle the score about her handcuffing him to the bed later.
