Chapter 16- focused on her
Right after Morrison suggested going public, even he had to admit—he must’ve been out of his mind.
What the hell was he thinking?
Going public? With Dave’s sister? That was practically a death wish.
He still wanted to enjoy his quiet, peaceful life. No need to die young.
He pulled out a chair and sat down, shaking his head with a self-deprecating chuckle.
"Forget I said anything."
Lilian let out a relieved sigh, clearly having been on edge for a second there. She picked up the menu and handed it to him.
"Here, you order."
Morrison took the menu, glanced over it, and instantly frowned.
"Didn’t you say you were treating me to some kind of ’school cafeteria horror cuisine’? Why would I dare pick anything on this menu?"
Lilian looked at his wary expression—and burst out laughing.
A laugh full of surprise and mischief, bright and contagious.
