" I didn't sign . How is that legal ? " Cold sweat beaded on the man's brow . " The file bears your personal seal , sir . Procedurally ... it's compliant . ' Personal seal ?

At that moment , Bella padded out of the bedroom in a silk slip , rubbing sleep from her eyes before cozying into his arms . " Alexander , why ' s it so noisy ... I wasn't finished sleeping . " He tamped his fury down and eased her back a step , unlocking his phone to display the scrolling announcement . His voice was low , tight . " Bella . Did you use this seal ?

That day outside Sterling Hall , she shoved a document at me and said it was urgent , that you needed it signed for business . You were so busy - and you promised I could help with paperwork - so I ... I stamped it ... " Her voice trembled ; tears splashed onto his wrist . " How could I know it was a divorce ? Are you mad at me ? Do you regret it ? Do you think I ruined your marriage ? Are you ... are you going to leave me ? " She clutched his sleeve , trembling like a frightened fawn . His anger softened despite himself . The origin of the duplicate seal was his own indulgence ; half his fury evaporated at the thought .
