  She forced the unwanted feeling aside.

  “You don’t lack for confidence, I’ll say that.” He paused, silence settling between them, as the frown returned to his brow. “You are clearly qualified and yet—”

  Her chest squeezed painfully, fingers curled against her reticule to hide their trembling. Without thinking she leaned forward in her chair. “Please, your lordship, I need this job. Travel from Scotland is not without expense and my severance shall only last me so long. Let me prove to you what an asset I can be. You won’t regret it, I swear.”

  At least not right away, that is.

  Her mouth grew dry, her pulse thudding dully in her veins as she waited for his answer. He simply had to say yes. Otherwise she would have to resort to other measures, desperate ones that frightened her to consider.

  Slowly, he met her gaze, those clear green eyes of his boring into her own. Holding steady, she forced herself not to look away, not to flinch or in any manner reveal her duplicity.

  Abruptly, he nodded. “Very well, Mrs Greenway, you’ve convinced me. Starting tomorrow you are my new housekeeper.”
