It was beginning to feel like torture, every time she had to go to old man Connery's office, and see Roger there in the reception room... God, would he ever just find a new job and leave, or would she be forced to endure his puppy-dog eyes, day after day, pleading with her to be weak once more, and promising (uselessly, she now knew) to show her why she was really better off with him instead of Daniel?
