Alice, meeting his intense gaze, caught her breath. Her eyelashes fluttered. [Ju…just friends.” Wasn’t that what he’d said? They were just friends. He saw her. a sister.

Jack licked his teeth, standing up.“[Let’s go.”

He walked ahead, his expression unreadable. Alice followed, keeping a distance. Garrett and John Wilson trailed behind; John Wilson was anxious, wanting to speak but held back by Garrett.
