"Not at all!" Georgia Thorne denied, a smile not quite reaching her eyes.
'As if he didn't know.'
'That call Ethan Fletcher was on had to have been with Elliot Sheridan.'
"If that's the case, then stay a bit longer. If you leave, how are we supposed to explain things to Nancy Hughes?"
"Yeah, if Ms. Hughes gets back and you're gone, she'll definitely be upset!"
Liam Sheffield chimed in, echoing Ethan Fletcher. He tugged on Georgia Thorne's wrist to pull her back down. "Miss Georgia, please, just sit and wait a little longer."
Georgia Thorne's expression soured as she was forced to sit on the sofa. Still, she couldn't shake her unease.
"No, I really think I should..."
"Miss Georgia, just relax and sit tight. Ms. Hughes and Don will be back any minute!"
Georgia Thorne had just stood up when Liam Sheffield pulled her down again, patting her on the shoulder. "Besides, what's the big deal?"
