It was nothing like with Jared in my previous life. Even if | asked him three questions, he wouldn't sparea
single glance.
If | wanted him to explain why he was going out in the middle of the night, all I'd get was the sound of him
slamming the door, or the roar of his engine as he sped off.
Compared to that, someone who's willing to communicate with you is the one who might truly be right for
you.
“You know, your cooking is really good. It actually makesfeel pretty happy,” Edward said, givingsome
genuine emotional support.
| smiled. “I used to do this all the tat home-it was basically my main job back then.”
Edward nodded. “Being able to cook is one thing, but choosing to do it is another. | think you've really found your
place at work, too.”
I smiled. “Guess I've been pretty lucky-seems like I've run into a lot of people who've really had my back.”
“So, do | make the list?” Edward cocked an eyebrow, a teasing smirk on his lips.

“Of course you do,” | answered with a grin.
After breakfast, | had to switch back into work mode. Edward droveto the hotel, and | was planning to head
upstairs and change into something else.
As | got out of the car, Edward suddenly took hold of my wrist. “Can we grab lunch together? I'll pick the place.”
| replied in a neutral tone, “Not sure yet. Our partners treated us yesterday, so it’s our turn to treat them today.”
Edward knew all about the give-and-take of business meals. He gave a helpless little smile. “Alright, just hit me
up when you're not busy.”
“Okay!” | replied, then got out of the car.
As soon as | stepped into the hotel lobby, the elevator doors slid open, and out walked Jane Leigh and Joel
Sinclair.
This was just too much of a coincidence. | couldn't help but feel a little irritated, like fate was messing with me
on purpose.
I'd already been looking toward the elevator, so when Jane Leigh stepped out, | finally got a clear look at her
face-she had a really elegant look. She was just over five foot three, and with Joel Sinclair, the male model,
towering at almost six foot three, even with her heels on, she barely cup to his shoulder.

Jane Leigh seemed to noticetoo, but instead of looking at me, her gaze went right past and landed on the
car behindthat was still parked there.
| took a deep breath and simply walked by.
Joel Sinclair waved and greeted me, “Morning, Ms. Murphy.”
My expression stiffened for a moment, and Jane Leigh suddenly stopped in her tracks, turning to Joel. “Want me
to let you off for half a day?”
Joel had her figured out. He just shrugged, “Just a friend, are you jealous?”
Jane Leigh glanced atwith a smile. “Sorry, I'm not picking on you-just keeping my boyfriend in check.”
| flashed a quick smile and strode over to the elevator.
Once the doors slid shut, | let myself breathe for a second and tried to steady my nerves.
She was just Edward's ex—wife, not
Sally. Honestly, if | ever did nq Sle]
with Ecyapd, what AES
Worfied about is what kind of
mother-in-law I'd have to deal with.
| smacked my forehead. None of this even matters-I’'m not even thinking about getting married again right
now.
After changing into a new outfit, | got
together with our PACE ang (1
"paecdusiche he site. As for
lunch, it was our turn to take care of
it.
| shot Edward a quick message, and
he replied with a simple "Sounds,
good.” Then he asked @ hid ny
