"She has the same haunted eyes as me, Duncan."
I was the one to break the silence between us. We were on our way back to The Belle after almost buying the whole bakery out.
Duncan practically paid for everything ~ on display and the one that was being baked ~ and gave it to the people who were outside the shop.
The owner of the shop, and her two helpers, were shocked ~ they were not the only ones. The amount of money he spent was...no. I will not be thinking about how much money he spent.
It was his money.
*One hour ago*
["This will be my token for the townspeople. You have been here for more than five years, and I have never welcomed you." He grinned down at me. We were outside the shop, making sure that Fall did not cause any trouble.
Fall did not like being stuck inside the car, so we decided to let him run around before we returned to The Belle.
"So, this is like a welcome party for me and the new baker in town?" I asked in a dry voice.
