"How are you two doing?" Jacky moved closer to her and asked in a low voice.
"So far, so good. I think nobody suspects anything yet. I hope nobody will." She added the last part quickly, not wanting anyone to catch them with their lies.

"What about Alex?" Upon hearing his name, Dani quickly looked at the man in question, wondering if he could overhear them because he, too, suddenly looked at them. Their eyes locked for a brief second before she looked away.
