There was an unspoken rule in the wealthy circles: wives would quietly accept that their husbands kept other women on the side. As long as it didn't come into the open, they would turn a blind eye. When Eliza Carrington first heard of this rule, she thought it was absurd. The man who held her hand even at business galas, the man who, on rainy days, would rather get drenched than let her get wet, the man who could see the colors of her world in a black-and-white world, actually keep a mistress. It was an enormous joke. But when she saw a recent college graduate become Xavier Delacroix's personal secretary, a man known for being extremely picky, she knew Xavier had fallen for her.
