But as Teresa left the room, a heavy silence settled over Benedict. There he was alone and in the midst of the mess he had created, and the love he had smashed to pieces. The walls convulsed inward on him, presenting vivid reminders of how the emptiness Sabrina's presence once filled. His heart twisted painfully, now pressed with the weight of his mistakes that, at last, allowed him to finally break.

Benedict was looking at a bottle of supplements. The truth of Sabrina's pregnancy was like a punch to his chest-she was carrying his child. I did not remember the last time he showed her kindness, and more so, love. Now, the mother of his child, the woman who had stayed by him through everything, was gone.

A desperate hope flared to life within him. He had to set things right. He had to prove to her that he could change, even if it was going to take years to regain her trust. He could see now, in jarring clarity, just how much he had hurt her, how much she'd given him, and how callously h

    He wasn't the type of fellow to allow anyone—not least someone like Jenny White—to into his head. He didn't even want to allow her into his head past their working contacts. But the clock seconds, his mind appeared not to be able to dislodge her. The way that she'd held her own in that meeting, the way that she hadn't cried when he tried to send her packing, and the way that her eyes had flashed with wordless rebellion—it was different. She was different.Saben's teeth clenched. He did not like it at all when people defied him like that, especially when they succeeded. There was something in Jenny's eyes when she spoke to him, something that had frozen him for a moment of a split second. It was enough time, though, to have him angry.He turned his chair around and away from her, pacing. Why was she so difficult? It wasn't the disobedience—damn, he'd gotten worse out of others. It wasn't how fast her mouth worked or how well she ran the board meeting so slickly. It was something else,

    Saben's glass doors closed on Jordan Cruz.The CEO leaned back in his giant desk chair, his eyes on the screen of his laptop, his brain elsewhere.The strangling hold of the silence in the room was choking him, a sour, grinding constriction. Saben hadn't moved from his chair since Jenny White had stormed out of his office, but for the life of him, he just couldn't seem to shake the impression that it had all gotten mixed up. Jordan, always the observant eye, moved quietly into the room and slipped into the leather chair beside Saben's desk. "So… what happened?" Jordan asked, her voice cutting through the tension like a knife.Saben did not reply immediately. He simply clicked his mouse once or twice, as if he was searching for something—anything—to distract him from what had just happened.Jordan was not a dealer himself, but he knew that Saben was a man whose thoughts were elsewhere, perhaps even insane for the first time in years.Saben finally took a breath, letting his shoulders fal

    Jordan flashed a smile as he headed toward the door. "You can place the business first, boss, all you want. But I've learned enough to know—if she walks back in here again, looking like last Tuesday? You're going to remember how hard it is to focus when your pulse doesn't work a clock at five."As the door swung shut behind Jordan, Saben stood staring toward the doorway, motionless, reflective.Then, with one hand, he gradually closed the file on the desk before him. His fingers caressed the edges. "Let's see what kind of move she makes," he whispered.BMX Estates boardroom, glass walls and all, sent back the early sunlight in warm golden light, casting stripes of shadow on the shiny mahogany table. Jenny White sat at the far end, papers neatly fanned out, ankles crossed at the heel, revealing only a fraction of the storm within.She'd had meetings. Important ones. Pressure-cooker ones. None, however, compared to when he strode in.Saben Thompson.The infamous, irresistibly smooth CE

    In the executive-style, glass-walled top floor of BMX Estates, the typical hum of business whirled around—sly footsteps, muffled whispers, the occasional bleep of emails being fired off to giants of the world. But within Saben Thompson's office, there was a tense atmosphere.Jordan Cruz, the Vice President and longtime friend of Saben's, stood at the edge of the CEO's desk, eyeing him warily as Saben pored over the latest partnership reports.You're awfully quiet today," Jordan said, folding her arms. "Even for you."Saben didn't lift her gaze. "I'm working.""You're pouting.""I'm managing Q3 margins."Jordan rolled her eyes. "You're mooning over Jenny White."That caused Saben to pause for half a second—long enough for Jordan to catch her."Aha," Jordan said, laughing. "The Thompson Flinch. You never do it, Sab. Unless you're trying not to admit something.".Saben finally lifted his eyes. His face was inscrutable, but his voice was a little gentler than normal in its weight. "She's.

    Back in the office, the instant Jenny passed through the glass entrance, she took a deep breath she'd held since the end of the meeting. Her heels tapped firmly, but her heart pounded as if she'd just been off a battlefield.In Zina's corner office, the older woman reclined on the couch, feet propped up, one hand placed protectively across her belly. She was pregnant, but Zina still had that radiant, poised serenity Jenny admired.Zina's gaze rose in a languid smile. "So… how was it with His Highness of Ice?"Jenny flopped her bag onto the side chair and collapsed onto the sofa with a sigh."I hate him," she grumbled.Zina's eyes twinkled. "That bad?"Jenny rolled her head. "No. Worse."Zina smiled quietly. "Let me guess—he didn't even give you water?""No water. No hello. No smile. Just those deadpan eyes like he was silently judging my existence.""Sounds like Saben."Jenny rubbed her forehead, frustrated. "He hardly let me get a word in edgewise before he disputed every argument. A

    "Don't test me. I'll begin sending you piña coladas until you crack."The stylist's neighbor, next to Jenny, laughed. "You two always like that?"Jenny and Zina both nodded in agreement: "Worse."That evening, Jenny sat in her apartment, sipping herbal tea, as Mochi curled around her ankles. The city lights twinkled outside her window like broken promises.She pulled out a journal—her little ceremony after long days—and began writing.Things I've made:One of the most lucrative lines on the MetroOne amazing friendship with a woman who used to intimidate me out of interviewing with herFinancial freedomInner calm, most of the timeFaith in myselfThings I want to create next:Love that doesn't make me feel smallA home full of laughter in every roomBalance of ambition and heartPerhaps, one day, childrenShe shut the book and sighed.Maybe Zina was right.
