Daddy's Little Liar (Daddy 12)

Rylan nodded and then paused when the waitress came back.

Faith set the tray on the edge of the table and slowly put the glasses and cups in front of the three before she straightened. “Are you ready to order?”

“Oh, gosh, I haven’t even looked,” Larkin exclaimed. “Do you have a special?”

“Yes. Salmon with risotto and asparagus.”

Larkin made gagging sounds, and Faith grinned. “I don’t like that kind of food either.”

“Are the cheeseburgers good here?” Darian asked.

Faith nodded. “I like them.”

“Then bring Larkin a burger with fries, and I’ll take the special,” Darian said.

Rylan handed her the menu. “I’ll take it, too.”

He didn’t like that Faith avoided looking at him in the eyes. She seemed to be scared of men for some reason.

“I’ll be back with your meals shortly.”

“Thank you, sweetheart.”

Faith’s gaze darted to his before she scurried away.

“Daddy, what’s she afraid of?”

“I don’t know, pet.”

“Can I ask her when she comes back?”

“No, you’ll embarrass her. Rylan and I will keep our eyes on her.”

Larkin nodded and took a drink of her pop.

Rylan watched as the waitress took care of her tables. There was one table that bothered him. When he saw the way the men treated her, he was furious.

He and Darian continued to talk about business as they waited for their meals.

“Here you go,” Faith said.

Rylan looked up as she set a plate down in front of him. “Thank you. This looks delicious.”

She paused and glanced at him. “I’ll tell the chef you said so. Is there anything else I can get you right now?”

The three at the table shook their heads.

“All right, I’ll check back with you in a bit. Enjoy your meal.”
