This Christmas
promises may deceive, but love could be the miracle they never expected.
“Not really enough time to fall in love with the lucky
lady,” Kit muttered under his breath, adding a stroke of light blue to the
canvas. Unless he finds the only one who had his heart, he’ll have to settle
for companionship with someone else. “Falling in love doesn’t happen every day,
my friend.”
“Ah, yes. The elusive Wakefield girl you’ve been
pining over these years,” Larry whispered over Kit’s shoulder. “You’ll have to
forego the hearts and flowers in this matter, Kit. Have you even thought about
it? Or are you too busy trying not to be your father you’ve forgotten?”
“Forgotten what? My monetary debt was paid in
full last month, which I’m sure my father was a bit surprised to have received
the last payment so soon. As for a woman to marry, I’ve spent so much time
making sure the business grew, I pushed that one element far away.” Kit twisted
the lid of a paint jar tightly. “I didn’t expect my art would take up the time
waiting for clients. And since my debt is paid in full, I’m obligated to marry
to please my mother.”
“And do you think for one moment your father will
wait for you to satisfy that part of the agreement?” Larry chuckled under his
breath. “You may be his only son, but you know your father when it comes to
business. You, my friend, entered into a business agreement with him.”
