Just then, Faye's phone rang… He was still holding Tessa Caldwell as he reached out to take the call.
Listening to the voice on the other end, his brows slowly drew together and his gaze darkened, but that only made his masculine charm even stronger. Even with that slight chill on his face, his "heartless" look was still ridiculously attractive!
The two of them were very close, so Tessa could vaguely hear Nolan Ford's voice. Seemed like he was talking about Cian Channing, saying things were going smoothly, and then something else… she didn't catch the rest.
But Tessa's curiosity was completely hooked; she really, really wanted to know what was going on.
After hanging up, Faye pushed her away, set her on her feet, then stood up himself. "I've got something to take care of outside. Be good and stay home, Tessa."
Tessa grabbed his sleeve, eyes blazing. "I want to go too."
