Lisa Kleypas Quote

Kev, Win said calmly, stepping forward, I would like to talk to you about something.Merripen, attentive as always to his wife, gave her a frowning glance. Now?Yes, now.Can’t it wait?No, Win said equably. At his continued hesitation, she said, I’m expecting.Merripen blinked. Expecting what?A baby.They all watched as Merripen’s face turned ashen. But how ... he asked dazedly, nearly staggering as he headed to Win.How? Leo repeated. Merripen, don’t you remember that special talk we had before your wedding night? He grinned as Merripen gave him a warning glance. Bending to Win’s ear, Leo murmured, Well done. But what are you going to tell him when he discovers it was only a ploy?It’s not a ploy, Win said cheerfully.Leo’s smile vanished, and he clapped a hand to his forehead. Christ, he muttered. Where’s my brandy? And he disappeared into the house.I’m sure he meant to say ‘congratulations,’ Beatrix remarked brightly, following the group as they all went inside.
