Alan released her and playfully tapped her forehead. “You naughty girl!”
Freya rubbed the spot where he'd touched, feigning injury.

to weather the initial confrontation.
Meanwhile, Freya waited patiently in the meeting room.

who wants to fireis inside. She specifically requested your presence.”
Hugh froze momentarily.
She called him dad?
He frowned, hesitated briefly, but maintained his silence.
