Chapter 24

Richard's POV.

It involved Sarah? What does that mean? The TV flickered on, and Martin stepped aside, giving me a clear view.

My head was still spinning from the argument with Susan, but the moment I saw the headline flash across the screen, all thoughts of her vanished. "Vitalé Wellness CEO Sarah Williams Makes Waves in New Markets"

Sarah's face filled the screen, and I froze.

"What the fuck is going on, Sarah is the CEO of Vitale?" I asked no one in particular.

She was sitting at some press event, dressed in a sleek, fitted suit that made her look more confident than I ever remembered.

Her smile was calm, and collected, like she had everything figured out.

She leaned forward slightly as a reporter asked her something, and when she answered, it was like watching someone else entirely.

And then, out of nowhere, he appeared.

Wesley.

Wesley freaking Stan, sitting right beside her with that smug grin on his face. My heart dropped to my stomach, and for a second, I couldn't even process what I was seeing. "Is that-?" Martin started again, still processing. "Is that Wesley sitting next to Sarah?"

I couldn't answer. I was too stunned, my heart pounding as I watched them on live TV, cozy as ever.

Sarah was talking, smiling even, like this was some sort of joke.
