Can I really let Seth go so I can have a chance with London?
Is that even right?
What would others think?
Even though the thought of what others might think makes my stomach clench, there’s a small part of me that feels a sense of relief in it.
In finally letting go of what’s not working.
And, of course, there’s London himself.
Absently, I sit down in my chair and shake my head.
Angie always thought I’d end up with London …
What would she think if she knew the other manwasLondon?
Suddenly, my phone buzzes.
I pull it out of my pocket in a daze. My eyes lock on the sender and my heartbeat stutters.
Seth.
Swallowing hard, I close my eyes and give myself a moment to calm down.
Then, I open the text to read it.
Can we talk tonight?
My heart lurches but I type back before I can talk myself out of it.
Yes.
Angie’s right.
Maybe it's time.
CHAPTER25
London
Iknew she’d avoid me today.
That’s why I’m not bothering to go in to work. Instead, I’m letting Myles think whatever sickness I came down with yesterday is still plaguing me today.
The club will be fine without me for two days.
Besides, I’d be useless there, anyway. There’s no way I could focus.
Not after everything that’s happened.
As it was, last night, I tossed and turned, never getting any real, restorative sleep. When I did manage to doze off, I was immersed in dreams where Lily’s lips were on mine and shewantedto be in my arms.
Where she wasmywife.
Not someone else’s.
Now, it’s noon and I feel like hell.
