Chapter 40: The Whitmores' Party
"Come on, Kellen. It's my little brother's 25th birthday and you won't come? That's not very you."
I heard Mr. Whitmore's voice. I entered Mr. Parker's office with a tray in my hands containing two cups of espressos and some biscuits for their snacks.
"I'm not in the mood to go to a party, Zach," Mr. Parker answered him.
They were sitting in front of each other and I put the tray down on the coffee table between them.
"Maybe Liv's espresso can cheer you up and make you come to the party," Mr. Whitmore joked which made me blink.
I glanced at Mr. Parker and I looked away immediately when I saw him looking at me too. My heart skipped a beat for a second.
"Wait a minute," Mr. Whitmore said then he put the cup down on the coffee table. "Is there something going on between the two of you?" He had a teasing smile on his face.
