Fiona paused instinctively, a joyful grin spreading across her face as she snuggled into Jackson's arms. Her playful antics drew a delighted laugh from him. Being a full head shorter, she nestled comfortably against his strong chest. With a cheeky poke, she felt his firm abs and couldn't help but admire Jackson's impressive build.
Her eyes sparkled even more as she smiled, transforming her features into a vision of beauty. Rising on her tiptoes, she almost met his gaze and planted a quick, playful kiss on his lips with a soft "mwah" before dashing out of the kitchen.
Jackson couldn't help but glance back, his lips curling into a bigger smile as he watched her head upstairs. Shaking his head with amusement, he refocused on cooking.
Upstairs, Fiona immediately opened her laptop to send a design draft to Jasmine. As she sifted through her emails, she stumbled upon intriguing information about Jackson's parents, accompanied by a photo.
In the picture, a young Jackson was cradled by his parents, with Kimberly nestled between them—a snapshot of familial harmony. But at the edge of the photo was someone from the Sinclair family, sending a chill through her. How could a Sinclair family member have ended up in this picture?
Family portraits typically don't include random outsiders, especially since Jackson's parents could have easily reserved an entire studio for their photo session. The presence of a Sinclair in the photo was baffling.
Feeling uneasy, she quietly transferred the photo to her phone. It seemed like a visit to the Sinclairs was overdue.
Since returning to the States, the Sinclair family had been unusually quiet, but their behind-the-scenes schemes were still relentless. Fiona wasn't worried about their threats, but she was adamant about keeping Jackson safe—that was her line in the sand.
