Stepping out of the car, Leanne carried a sugar-free cheesecake she’d bought for Mary, standing to the side, polite and quiet, waiting.

Jake’s gaze shifted to the woman on the footpath not too far away, dressed in a cozy knitted sweater and a flowing skirt, exuding a gentle charm.

Then his eyes darted back to the man in the backseat.

Curtis, observing her through the one-way glass, raised an eyebrow in surprise, “She’s waiting for me?”
