PATRICK CLEARS his throat from the doorway.
I glance up, surprised to see him there. He's been avoiding me in the office. Although we meet to go over our business projections, he's been cold and reserved.
"Hey." I glance at him.
"Fuentes is here." He sticks a hand into his pocket. "He's in the boardroom. Wants to talk to both of us."
Fuentes made his stance clear. Although he hasn't officially broken his contract, I've been making moves assuming that an announcement would break out soon.
Patrick and I stride in stiff silence to the boardroom. It used to bother me. This distance. This sudden tension between the man I've known for years. But I've decided to let it ride.
Patrick and I are on two different paths.
He's still cheating on his wife and I'm obsessed with mine.
He thinks lying to his wife is okay. I've decided that I'm going to share everything with Harriet, even if it puts me in hot water.
