There was a time when her sweet words could convince Liam to do anything .

But now, he wasn't so easily swayed.

Grace couldn't hold back a laugh at their exchange from the doorway.

At the sound of her voice, Liam stirred as though ready to get up.

But then, something seemed to click, and he settled back down, deliberately turning his face away.

"What are you doing here? My leg's been broken for 18 hours.
