Divorce to Destiny: Reclaiming My CEO Husband by Anney GW

My CEO 271

271 Lance's Proposition (Winona)

"You and me, no strings attached. Just fun. You've got a hall pass, right? No one would be better at showing you what you're missing."

I laugh, shaking my head, though the alcohol is making everything seem lighter, less serious than it should be. "You're insane." "Think about it," Lance presses, his voice smooth, persuasive. "I'm not talking about love. This isn't about some emotional thing." He's joking right?

"You deserve someone who can take you places you haven't been yet. Someone you already know you trust."

"Lance..." I start, trying to form a response that will shut him down without making things awkward.

"Come on, Winona. You're curious, I can see it in your eyes. You and I both know we're not made for a relationship, but I can give you a damn good time."

I'm about to brush him off again, but something in the way he says it makes me pause. The words are sliding into my brain, coaxing thoughts I probably shouldn't be having.

Lance is, well, Lance-sexy, confident, and more than a little tempting.

He's always been like that, the guy who could walk into a room and have every woman's attention without even trying.

And me? I've always been the one who's untouchable to him because of Jayden. But now... there's this hall pass.

I can feel the heat rising in my chest. Part of me wants to laugh this whole thing off, but another part... another part is seriously considering it.
