The Divorce Prescription

Chapter 418

Declan spoke up. "First of all, you were the one who threw yourself at me. Plus, I'm single. Maybe I was just acting on impulse."

"So, you're admitting you're a jerk, huh? In that case, I guess I'll just have to let you jerk me around," Hailey quipped.

She knew he wasn't a jerk, of course.

Declan fell silent.

Just then, Declan's friend walked in. "Damn, Declan, where did this beauty come from?"

He had come looking for Declan, only to be met with an unexpected sight. His eyes widened as he took in Hailey's presence.

Hailey quickly stepped back from Declan, offering the man a nervous smile. "Hi, I'm Hailey Young."

"Justin Griffin," he replied. "So, Declan, you finally got yourself a girlfriend, huh?" Declan immediately shut it down. "She's not my girlfriend."

"I am!" Hailey declared confidently.

Declan was momentarily speechless.

Justin let out a laugh. "Damn, Declan. I thought you were destined to be single forever. You've never been interested in anyone before, but now I get it-you're just picky. Looks like Hailey put all those other girls chasing after you to shame."

Declan set the spatula down and turned to Justin. "Let's talk outside."
