Millionaire On Her Doorstep (2011)
“By nine at the least. That won’t be a problem, will it?”
While his father spoke, Adam’s gaze remained on the picture window to the left of his desk. The sky had grown dark in the past hour and now lightning sizzled over the distant mountains. But his mind wasn’t on the weather. It really wasn’t on anything except Maureen.
“No problem.”
“Good. Because you’re to meet with the mud people in Bloomfield for lunch. And when you do, I want you to be sure and get it across to them that we don’t intend ...to be robbed. We’ll call a company out of Farmington if we have to.”
“Fine.”
Wyatt walked over to the window and deliberately put himself in front of Adam’s vacant stare. “Are you with me on this, Adam, or should I make the trip myself?”
Adam drew a hand over his face and jerked his feet down from the corner of the desk. “Of course I’m with you,” he said gruffly. “I’ll be there. And I’ll deal with the mud company.”
Wyatt studied his son for long, silent moments.MoreLess
