My CEO 406

406 Chill Time

(Winona)

"Guys, look, don't say things you don't mean..." Lance is up and trying to stop us arguing.

"Jayden is the one acting like a mad man."

Jayden's face hardens again. "Don't turn this on me. You betrayed me, Winona. Of all the men in the world, you had to go with the two that would hurt me the most."

"It wasn't about you, Jayden. This whole fucking world does not revolve around you."

"Your world sure as hell doesn't. If it wasn't for the photos I got, I'd never have known. You three would be laughing at me behind my back forever."

"I was going to tell you. Just not yet."

"Sure. Like I believe that. Well, now I know. Anything else you care to share with me while we're at it?"

I glare at him. My head is thumping, and I feel dizzy. I need to get calm, I need to think of the baby. My baby.

I hold my head in my hands.

"Maybe you need another hall pass week while Lance is here? Is Phillip on the next flight?"

My breath catches, and I feel the sting of hot tears spilling down my cheeks as I look at him again. "You gave me that week. We agreed it would never come between us. And now you're using it against me. You're a hypocrite, Jayden. A cruel, self-righteous hypocrite." "I didn't know then who it was going to be when I agreed."

"Neither did I. But it doesn't matter who, you can't just go moving the goalposts because now the details don't suit you."
