Marked By My Best Friend's Dad
I didn’t know how Duncan would look at me now, knowing I wasn’t some random maid, but his daughter’s best friend.
“It’s fine if he doesn’t want to do anything about it,” I said softly, barely above a whisper.
Duncan turned slowly at the sound of my voice.
Our eyes met.
For a second, he froze. Then his jaw tightened, and he rose from the chair like he’d been struck.
“Is this… your friend?” he asked, voice rough, almost unsteady.
Alice blinked, confused. “Have you met her before?”
Duncan dragged a hand through his hair, looking like he’d just realized something catastrophic. “What was the problem you mentioned earlier?” he asked, authority snapping back into his tone.
