"Melanie is my sister," she blurted, her voice louder than intended, cutting through the low murmur of the café.
Adam paused mid step and sat back down, staring at Melody.
Melody watched his face, trying to read his expression. But there was no shock. No surprise. He just stared at her calmly as if she had just announced that the weather was nice.
She frowned. That wasn't the reaction she had expected.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Did you already know? Did Melanie tell you? Does she already know that we are sisters?"
The questions came fast, tumbling over each other. While on her face, she did not show her panic, but under the table, her hands were clenched. If Melanie really knew everything and had told Adam about it, then her plan would be in a mess.
