A smile touched Landon Sinclair's eyes. He raised an eyebrow, his gaze dark and sharp as he asked, "What's the matter? Scared?"
Chloe's heart sank. She had a bad feeling about this.
No one had mentioned the lab incident while she was in the hospital.
She had hoped everyone would just let it slide, but one look at Landon's eyes told Chloe she was about to face the music.
She pouted, a hint of a fawning smile on her face as she wheedled, "Landon, you have to help me..."
Landon Sinclair's expression remained neutral, but he couldn't deny the thrill he felt hearing Chloe plead with him like this for the first time.
He gently covered the corner of his mouth and coughed lightly. "Dad's just worried about you," he reminded her. "He and Ethan have been abroad and couldn't get back. He's only here to see you before he has to leave again."
Landon then added in all sincerity, "Just try not to worry him too much."
