Knowing James Horne's identity, she didn't have a starstruck expression in her eyes, nor was there any fear on her face. When other women saw him, they either swooned or were frightened by the chill that he emitted. This Miss Hughes seemed to be unfazed by these things.
"I'm off. If there's anything wrong with your head, remember to see a doctor, okay? I can help you with the medical expenses." Rebecca Hughes waved at James Horne, left without a backward glance, and turned to walk towards the front yard.
James Horne scowled as he watched her retreating figure, his hand still covering the spot where he had been struck. Damn high heels, they hurt like hell!
But it did give him a glimpse of Miss Hughes'... playful side. No wonder everyone talks about Miss Hughes with such an exasperated look. This girl is truly a rare breed.
