Judith McNaught Quote

You damn fool! one of the men grated in angry concern as they both squatted down on their haunches and peered anxiously at her. What the hell do you think you're doing?Bracing herself on her forearms, Lauren lifted her chagrined gaze from the man's shoes to his face. Auditioning for the circus, she told him dryly, And for an encore, I usually fall off a bridge.A rich chuckle sounded from the other man as he took her firmly by the shoulders and helped her to her feet. What's your name? he asked, and when Lauren had told him,he added worriedly, Can you walk?For miles, Laruen assured him unsteadily. Every muscle in her body was protesting, and her left ankle was throbbing painfully.Then I guess you can make it as far as the building so we can have a look at the damage, he said with a smile in his voice.
