Patrizio Goes to Leticia

"What are you doing here, Patrizio?" "I needed to see you." "Why?" "I didn't like how things were left between us the last time we saw each other." "They were left the way they were because you wanted to think about breaking off your engagement even though you and I both know that it's the …

  Rachel was standing at the table with the display of the MacMurchie Collection when Angus walked in.  Heart pounding, she watched him.  He hadn't changed much.  He was still as handsome as ever.  She hadn't expected to run into him--at least not so soon.   Their eyes met.
