I have chocolate.” The suspicion in his voice turned to disbelief. “You do not.” “I do.” And she hoped the surprise of that would render him curious enough to do as she asked. “I’ll bet it’s carob,” he said, with mild disgust. “You know how I hate carob. It tastes like stale malted milk balls. So I think I‘ll pass on your offer.” She’d been afraid he’d say that. From what she’d been told, he was heading for a more destructive diversion altogether.MoreLessRead More Read Less
