Lucy plasters on a fake smile. I don’t miss how her eyes soften slightly when she looks at a snickering Jude. A pang of annoyance runs through me at the way she glances at him. Maybe I shouldn’t have forced Jude to tag along with me to convince her. I bet if it was Jude offering her the job, she’d accept immediately. I brush the irritating thought away when her eyes meet mine again, they’re narrowed and full of defiance.
