He got his secretary to investigate and it turned out Lauren had been busy on nights when he worked late, she had been with many other wealthy men. The irony wasn't lost on him as he had done the same thing to Ivy two years ago. With his ego and pride hurt, he wouldn't allow Lauren to continue being his girlfriend.
He got home and paced the living room as he waited for Lauren to arrive home and when she did he confronted her straight away. A fight broke out immediately. She screamed threw many things at him, trashing his home. He lost it and kicked her out with just the clothing on her back.
He didn't care where she went, she could go to one of the many men she was sleeping with. He felt like an idiot, she had deceived him and now he had only one thought.
He had to get Ivy back.

Ivy laughed, "Of course I mean it, what makes you think I would want you."
