“We did.” Ruby tugged at her ever-present bun. “Although in the interest of full disclosure, I also wanted to tell you something I’d heard about Jake.”
“If it’s any kind of scandalous gossip, I don’t believe a word of it.” After last night, Megan had no doubt Jake was a gentleman through and through. Not many men would remain faithful to a comatose wife for almost a decade, and it told her everything she needed to know about him, as far as she was concerned.
“Not scandalous at all,” Ruby said. “Just…information. And since you’re considering a relationship with him, it feels weird for me to know it and not tell you.”
Megan sipped from her wine. “Spill, then.”
“Apparently, Jake’s wife came from a very strict, religious family. She was saving herself for marriage.”
“Okay,” Megan said, not really understanding what this had to do with Jake.
“They started dating when they were fifteen.” Ruby raised her eyebrows for emphasis. “She fell during the reception, which means they never consummated their marriage.”
“Oh shit,” Megan whispered.
Elle slapped a hand over her mouth.
“Which means, either Jake hasn’t had sex since he was fifteen,” Ruby said, “or if you believe the rumors, he’s still a virgin.”
