“Both, really I trained and worked as a nanny after I finished school The designing has come in the past few years and I spent most of the previous year, before I ca for inspiration”

Jenny picked up one sheet and then another “So is that why you’re leaving? To get back to your work?”

“We’ve ih,” Raoul said before she could say a word “It’s time she returned to her own life”
