She shoved her chair back with her legs and stood. “No. No, you don’t really care about me. You’ve just come back into my life. It’s only been, what? Five days? You don’t care about me. You barely know me.” He smiled, looking a little bemused. “You don’t get to tell me how I feel.” “You barely know me,” she repeated, enunciating the words clearly, willing him to read between the lines, willing him to turn tail and run, which was precisely what he should do. But of course, he didn’t. Dalton wasn’t the kind of man to be easily scared off. Besides, he didn’t know about the oceans of lies between them. He didn’t know that Gran had stolen money from his parents. He didn’t know that Laney had been working to cover it up. And even if he did know about all that, they still couldn’t be together. Because she knew the truth, even if he wasn’t ready to face it yet. They didn’t belong together.
