“Your one o’clock is here, Ms. Patterson.” Melanie glanced at the time, frowning. “They’re very early.” “I tried to tell them that, but they seemed impatient.” Melanie shook off her disappointment of losing yet another chance to run home to see her baby.

Jack being a culinary genius in her kitchen and preparing some of the best meals she’d had in a year. “It’s all right. Show them in, Laura.” She tucked her handbag in the drawer and moved from behind her desk, tugging at the hem of her jacket. Her welcoming smile drooped when the door swung open and Jack strode in with Juliana in his arms. “What are you doing here?” Despite her protests, she went to him, taking her baby and hugging her close. “Oh, hello, sweetie,” she murmured, and the baby giggled excitedly and squeezed her back. “There is something to be said about a woman in a power suit,” Jack remarked, standing close and letting his gaze roam leisurely over the deep-green designer outfit.
