Chapter 389

"It's nothing," Amara replied coolly. "Was there something you needed, Mr. Everly?"

She tried to pull her wrist free, but Finnian's grip didn't loosen.

Finnian hesitated, then finally released her.

"Are you heading home now?" he asked. "I can give you a ride."

"No need. I'm going back to the set-it's just across the street."

Amara found Finnian's behavior a little odd. Hadn't he made it clear he was moving on with Liliana? Why was he suddenly so concerned about her business?

No, wait. This wasn't just about her-it was about Hogan, too. Finnian was probably only worried about his brother. Amara couldn't help but let out a self- deprecating little smile.
