“What do you mean?”
“Bill.”
“Oh, it’s fine. He was just asking about some of the things we’ve been doing.”
“Does he think I’m meddling?
“Nothing he can do about it from hundreds of miles away.” John snorted.
“I don’t want to cause any trouble”—Audrey smiled sheepishly—“for you.”
John held her gaze and her heart skipped a beat. She felt the charged energy between them, and when he took a step in her direction it multiplied by a tenfold.
“Audrey—”
“Hey kids.” Tyler said coming out of freaking nowhere and grabbing a Dr. Pepper from the refrigerator. “What’s happening?”
John tweaked his lips at her, then turning to an expectant Tyler, said “I was telling Audrey about Bill’s management style.”
“Stand back and watch?” Tyler shook his head in disapproval. “He never leaves his office.”
“Why do you work with him?” Audrey asked disappointed by the interruption because she thought she saw something very peculiar in John’s eyes when he said her name, and she desperately wanted to know what it was.
