My CEO 61

61 Grab Life by the Balls

(Winona)

"Are you sure you're making the right choice?" Lisa asks.

I nod. "I'm just going to do exactly what I want to do for a change. I honestly can't be any worse off. Abby will thrive in the sea air."

Lance holds his glass up. "Good for you. That family needs a good kick in the ass."

"It's not that simple for Winona though. She has enemies. I'm worried this will force Ashlyn and maybe Judy to do something drastic."

"Ashlyn has the baby to think about. She would know that as long as she has his baby, Jayden will always be tied to her. I don't think she'd risk that," I say..

"I wouldn't put anything past her. She needs medicating or something." Lisa shakes her head.

"I don't think Gus will let her out of his sight while she's pregnant with his grandchild," Lance observes.

"Oh my god! Abby is his grandchild too. It's like this is all just occurring to me. And she's the heir apparent If anything happens to Jayden. I don't want that life for her."

"I'm glad it's all out in the open now, I mean, it was disastrous at the time but now I feel relieved, I'm not sure Jayden will ever talk to me again." Lance says with a grimace. "You hurt him. I guess time will tell." I want to support Lance but I'm not breaking Jayden's confidence by discussing what he discussed with me over what Lance did.

"I won't hold my breath waiting." Lance adds. "I guess my life looks very different now."

"You'll get work," Lisa adds. "You're so good at what you do."

"I have offers already. That's not what's worrying me. I go face the music with Jayden and see where we stand.
