Millie’s fingers danced across her phone’s screen in response.
“Not yet.”
“At this hour, you must be famished.”
A contemplative touch to her stomach informed Millie that her hunger had abated and the discomfort had receded.
“No worries, Marcus hasn’t arrived home. I’ll wait for him to joinfor dinner.”
Given that she had prepared a meal for both herself and Marcus, waiting seemed a reasonable choice. She held a steadfast belief that he should be in proximity to their abode.
