My CEO 92

92 Game On! (Winona)

Gordon leans back in his chair. "I need private time with Winona to discuss the case."

"I have another appointment." Sheila answers him with a nod. "There's been private room set up in the office. Only you and I will have a fob to open this."

I feel the color drain from my face remembering those other women in the jail.

"I'll be back tomorrow for our scheduled time. You can call me anytime."

Then she was gone.

"Let's go to the office."

Once we are settled in there, Gordon smiles. "That was brilliant."

"I hoped so. But can I tell you how worried I am to invite Phillip back into my life after what he did."

"Winona, I know the backstory and I have weighed up our options. Jayden has filed to go on Abby's birth certificate as her father. If he gets this and, given his current opinion of you..."
