Yes, she started to say but didn’t. Might as well get it over with. Besides, she had to admit she was curious as to what in the hell he could want. She waved a hand at the couch and he took a seat.
“One of your friends told me you’d moved to Montana. The hospital had your forwarding address.”
She started to question which friend and why the hospital had given out her private information but hell, Phil was a doctor there and they knew they’d been married. And likely didn’t know they were divorced, though they had to have known the two of them were estranged. Still, Phil could have given any number of reasons why he needed to get in touch with her and someone would have given it to him.
With a sigh of frustration, she sat on the other end of the couch and put on her other boot. “Look, Phil, I don’t know why you’re here or what you want from me, but I have a date. He should be here any minute now.” She hoped. “So, either get to the point or leave.”
“I’ve missed you, Sierra.”
Give me a break.“Oh, please. You missed me? Well, that’s too damn bad. You’re not the only one who can move on. How is darling Tamera, by the way? Does she know you’re here?” He didn’t answer. “Oh, I get it now. She left you, didn’t she?”
He rubbed the back of his neck. A sure sign he was uncomfortable. “We broke up. It was mutual.”
She raised an eyebrow. “Seriously?”
“Yes. We broke up a few weeks ago.”
“I thought you were madly in love and going to marry her.” That’s what he’d told her that awful day when he’d blown up their life.
“I made a mistake. She was…a mistake. I should never have left you, never have asked for a divorce. I’ve never regretted anything more.” He looked so sad, so sincere. If he was sincere, why the hell had it taken so long for him to decide he’d made a mistake?
Stunned, she stared at him. “A little late, don’t you think?” She heard a knock on the door. Thank God. It was bound to be Connor. She got up and crossed the room to open the door. Before she could speak, Connor took one look at her, yanked her against him and laid a kiss on her hot enough to cause a forest fire. By the time he released her, her brain was well and truly scrambled.
