Though she didn't lose her temper like usual, Inez knew that it was only because the woman was used to acting as a fragile damsel in distress. If the two of them were somewhere more private, Evelyn would have lunged for her throat by now.
"I am not." Inez's voice was calmer than a stagnant pond. She looked at Evelyn's eyes, which were wider than the saucers and said to her, "I truly did resign from my post. How do you feel? Happy? I think you do. After all, you went through all that song and dance to get Dominic into your bed. What?"
Inez gasped. "Don't tell me you thought I signed the contract?"
Evelyn bit her lower lip. She indeed thought that Inez had signed the contract again. When she had called Dominic and asked about it, the man had told her not to worry about it. She thought that it was a given that Inez had signed it.
