Eddie helped clear the table, following her to the kitchen to have a private word with her as they stacked the dishwasher. ‘You’re the main target today, Laura. No doubt about it now,’ he warned. ‘I’d say Dad wants Jake as his son-in-law.’ ‘It’s not going to happen,’ she snapped. ‘He’s a clever guy. Been playing all sides today. And I’ve been watching you. You’re not immune to him.’ ‘Which made it very stupid of you to tell him what I thought.’ ‘Obvious anyway. Believe me, a guy like that knows women think he’s sexy. He would have had them vying for his attention from his teens onwards. Just don’t say yes to him.’ Easy for him, sitting on the sidelines, Laura thought savagely. ‘What if I want to?’ Eddie looked appalled. ‘He is sexy,’ she repeated defiantly, fed up with being put on the spot. He grimaced. ‘Then make damned sure you keep it at sex and don’t end up hooked on him. The way Mum is should be warning enough for you.’ ‘I will never be like Mum.’ He shook his head.
