Mission To Remarry

Lucian took a sip of the coffee as he remained expressionless, masking the displeasure he was feeling.

He wanted Roxanne to thank him or compensate him, not to sit in front of him without a word.

Although I used the business going under as an excuse, does she really think a cup of coffee is enough to compensate me?

Roxanne put down her cup and looked out the window. She had no intention of speaking at all.

First, she believed there was nothing else they had to say to each other. Second, she didn’t want to get too involved with him. The only reason she had treated him to the coffee was to call it even.
