He didn’t understand. Why? Who exactly was he?

I’ll excuse myself for now.” “I’m leaving too!” Jay stood up and breezed past Beau’s chair. He headed straight for the door and offered, “Eliza, I’ll drop you home.” Eliza frowned and tossed a glance at Beau without moving. “She’s not going with you.” 2 Jay gritted his teeth. “How would you know?” The man calmly rose to his feet, sidestepped Jay, and walked
