Chapter 26 Ancient Tradition

• Mía was questioning herself whether she should accept that Ahmed could have other wives. She couldn't say that he was the love of her life, but she was starting to feel something beyond friendship.
• That kiss had not left her indifferent; it had stirred strange sensations inside her. Now, she understood what her friend meant about feeling butterflies in her stomach, something she had never experienced with Carlo's kisses.
• In his office, Ahmed was also thinking about the marriage agreement. If Mía accepted that he could have other wives, it would be a clear indication that she wasn't interested in him. He held a small hope that she would refuse because he noticed how she trembled when he kissed her.
