She hesitated for a split second, her heart squeezing painfully before she answered the call. "Hi, sweetie."
"Mommy, Daddy and I brought you lunch!"
Felicia froze in pure shock. When she hurried down to the lobby, she spotted Max and Anne waiting near the entrance. Max was holding a thermal lunchbox. The moment his eyes met hers, it was obvious his mood was still terrible. The fury from that morning still lingered in his gaze.
Spotting her, Anne cheered and ran over. "Mommy!" The little girl was completely oblivious to her father's dark mood.
Felicia tore her eyes away from Max and crouched down to take Anne's hands.
"Mommy, Daddy and I brought you lunch," Anne repeated happily.
Felicia gave her a tender smile. "Thank you." She stood up and looked at Max again. Likely because Anne was watching him, his expression softened considerably, instantly transforming him back into the picture perfect loving father and devoted husband. He was quite the actor.
She walked over holding Anne's hand. "Anne and I have not eaten yet," he stated.
Anne looked up at her mother expectantly. Felicia pressed her lips together. "There is a buffet place near here called The Garden Grille. The food is pretty good."
Max looked down at Anne. "Do you want to get lunch there, sweetie?"
Anne nodded eagerly. "Yes!"
