.He soon turned off the main road, their vehicle the only one on whatappeared to be a newly asphalted drive.It twisted and turned, drawing closer and closerto the ocean until finally a sprawling resort appeared in the distance.A discreet wooden sign told her she looked upon the Bancroft Maui Luxury Resort.She d heard of the Bancroft hotel chain before, knew it as one of the most exclusive andexpensive hotels in the world.And they were about to stay at one.Rhett stopped the car in front of the entrance, where they were greeted by a team ofcourteous employees.They were quickly escorted into the spacious lobby of the hotel,Hawaiian music playing low in the background, accompanied by the wind rustlingthrough the palm trees swaying just outside. We re sharing a suite, Rhett informed her only moments later, clutching a key in hishand. We ll drive to it.They re delivering our luggage now. Ella frowned. We re sharing a suite? Oh, that can t be good.Staying in such closequarters with Rhett, how would she be able to withstand him? Nothing nefarious in my intentions, I promise.And it s not really a suite. Hegrinned.She was impressed he used the word nefarious such an old-fashioned word. It s pointless for me to stay in a four-thousand-square-foot villa all by myself.Trust me,we won t get in each other s way. She didn t answer, decided instead to concentrate on her opulent surroundings.Theview of the ocean was stunning, the resort grounds like a tropical paradise.If there wereguests here, she didn t hear or see them.Everything was discreet, gorgeous and boughtand paid for with a tremendous amount of money.Glancing down at herself, she was thankful yet again for Tessa taking her shopping.She wore a long turquoise-colored sundress and strappy, pale gold wedge sandals, simplegold hoops in her ears and a big pair of black sunglasses perched on her nose.All of itpicked out by Tessa, who d texted her early in the morning asking what she planned towear on the flight.If she could take away anything from this experience at Worth Luxury, she could atleast cherish these few moments she felt like Tessa Worth was her friend. Oh, and the experience.She needed the experience desperately if she wanted to get farin the industry.That she allowed silly sentiment to take precedence over her careeraspirations was& foolish.They took the car to the villa, which sat on the far end of the property, on a low cliffclose to the water s edge.She followed Rhett to the door, murmuring thank you when heheld it open for her.Tried her best to act nonchalant, staying in such an extravagantplace, but it was hard considering it was over twice the size of the house she shared withher father.And cost ten times as much, she was sure. Which room do you prefer? Rhett called as he wandered down the hall, peekinginside each doorway, sizing everything up.Ella remained in the living room, thankful she had dark glasses on so he couldn t seeher wide-eyed wonder. I don t care. She should probably ask for the room farthestfrom his, but that would be rude.Rhett reappeared in the living room, all easy, casual elegance in his jeans and subtleHawaiian-print shirt that emphasized the broadness of his shoulders.He was built toperfection.If she saw him in swim trunks and nothing else, she wasn t sure she d be ableto handle it. I picked a room for you.I ll make sure your luggage is left there. She shrugged. That s fine. The man had impeccable taste and gracious manners.Shewasn t worried. Listen, may I ask you a question? His brows furrowed, creases formed on his forehead, he frowned so hard. Sure.What s up? His easy tone didn t hide the edge lurking just beneath the surface.He didn t like to be questioned.In fact, he seemed to be rather closed-off, which was ashame, because she d love to know more about him and his family, the business, thedynamics between them all.But it was none of her business.Nibbling on her lower lip, she decided to make her request
