Bye-Bye Jerk, Hello Mr. Right by Rosie Steppe

Just as I was trying to figure out who could be messing with me, more calls started rolling in-one about a ring order, another about the wedding venue.

That was when it hit me: this wasn't just a prank. When I finally asked who'd placed all these orders, I learned exactly who was behind it. Jace. Of course.

I knew he wouldn't do something as childish as prank calls just to get under my skin. Realizing what he might actually be up to, I called him directly. "Jace Johnston! What the hell are you trying to do? We've already broken up, and here you are ordering a wedding dress and a ring. Who are you trying to gross out?" "Don't think so lowly of me. You think I'm doing this just to annoy you? You've always doubted that I cared, doubted my love for you. Well, let's get married now. That should prove I only want to be with you, right?" Jace's words made my disappointment sink even deeper.

"Jace, do you really think love is about forcing someone into a wedding dress and shoving a ring on her finger? Do you still not get why I left you?" I snapped.

Jace went quiet for a few seconds. "Isn't it because of Tanya?"

"Exactly!" I admitted. "So, what's your plan to deal with that?"

There was a long pause on his end before he finally said, "I won't have any more contact with her. I'll even have her leave the company. Will that be enough?" Listen to that tone-so unwilling, so grudging.
