So looking at another man, worrying about where my next orgasm was going to come from, and thinking about being in a relationship with someone else?Those things weren’t even on my radar.
Not until I walked into that meeting and saw Drew Carrington.
Dear Lord, the impact was instant and powerful.
But I ignored it, thinking he was the answer to our problems.
I thought he would buy the company, workwith meto do what I couldn’t—keep the company running and eventually thriving—and after three months I’d step out and enjoy ten percent payments for the remainder of Open Leaf’s life.
Which, I’d assumed, would be for the remainder of my life.
This plan, inside my head, meant I had time to work out what I did with my own career to create an income to provide for my daughter.One that would see us keep the penthouse and at least one portion of our lifestyle.
Now I know Drew has no intention of telling me what’s going on.I’m to keep the wheels turning and stay out of it.
He sounded almost amused.
The jerk.
Well, I don’t have a choice.
But I can stop running and start fighting to ensure Drew Carrington salvages Open Leaf and doesn’t destroy it.If he thinks I’m going to sit quietly in the shadows, he has another think coming.

Patrick runs a few paces behind.
“I’m running.”I shoot Zander a look.“What should I look like?”
“Normally you have things to say.”
