I looked at him like he was a freak. “We’re divorced. Why would you care who I’m with?”

Jared crossed his arms. “I was jealous.”

I laughed in disbelief. “Jared, you have no right to be jealous anymore. Forget cooking. Even if you saw me kissing someone, you should keep your cool.”

“I can’t.” He bit his lip. “I want to be blind and numb and just let myself move on, but I
