During the interim, Destiny immersed herself in the company, had daily meetings with various members of the board to discuss flow charts, saw Derek twice, had dinner with Stephanie several times and generally busied herself with anything and everything that could take her mind off Callum.

It was easier not to think of him when she was busy grappling with the complexities of profit and loss accounts and budgets which, even to her unskilled eyes, appeared horrendously optimistic. But the minute her mind wasn’t occupied it slipped back to their lovemaking and, to the even more disastrous Sunday, when they had toured the grounds, keeping a measured distance between them and acting as though nothing had happened. He’d appeared to find that very easy to do. As he’d appeared to be relaxed around Stephanie. In fact, they had seemed more relaxed than when they’d been engaged. Maybe he had been trying to prove a point. The only point he’d ended up proving, through his silence, was that what had happened between them had been a regrettable inconvenience but not much more.
