He leans over and kisses my cheek. “Thanks, sweetheart. It came in from Millie around seven this morning, and it’s labeled “Investment Report/Second Quarter.”
I take the last bite of my pasta and stand up to leave. “Can you grab my straw Loewe bag?”
“No problem. I’ll be ready in ten, let’s meet at the car.”

Where the hell is his bloody phone?
Aha. Of course, it’s under his wet towel.
Men.
Without an issue, I find the email and forward it to Declan, but when I close out his email, what I see is appalling.
Two hundred and fifty tabs open, and almost half his apps are running.
No wonder his phone is constantly dying and we’re always on the look-out for an electrical outlet.
Note to self—buy Jack a portable phone battery.
While I walk back to the front of the villa and wait for Jack, I start to close out unnecessary tabs. Like his twenty-five Amazon tabs… How many times do you need to open a tab to buy no-show socks?
For a so-called billionaire, he needs to utilize his personal assistant more often.
Swipe… swipe… swipe… Wait.
What the hell?
I go back and open up his notes app, seeing a page labeled “Annabelle Louise Hughes/Peters.”
My hand flies to my throat as I hurry over to the small table and chair in the corner.
Oh. My. God.

4: Hates frogs- petrified!
I laugh through my happy tears, thinking about how stupid I was.
I’m no longer scared of frogs, but that one summer—it had to have been maybe 1999, if that—when I was swimming in Sadie’s pool, the biggest frog I’d ever seen jumped in, landing right on my head, and we couldn’t get it out.
It was traumatizing.

I can’t believe my eyes right now.
I skip ahead and scroll all the way down to the bottom. Then scroll back up, then back down.Holy shit.
