So damn perfect for me.
“Chase?”
I sit up, thinking maybe there’s a chance she’ll invite me into bed with her. “Yes, Evelyn?”
“I think I’d like to visit my parents tomorrow. I mean, I’m so close to home, it would be a pity not to stop by at least for a couple of days and then come back here, Christmas Eve.”
I ponder in silence. “Okay. Would you like me to go with you? I can be your fake billionaire fiancé, return you the favor?”
She laughs. “Oh, heck no. Ma would flip out of her mind if I introduced you as my fiancé only to announce a breakup later. She’d never let me live down that I let a good man get away.”
Unless, of course, you don’t let me get away.
“Right. Well, I’m fine with you visiting your parents. Just let Percy drop you and BB off, then pick you up, okay?”
“You’re a good man, Chase Hunter. I envy the woman you’ll call your wife someday.”
I envy the man lucky enough to become yours.
