“One moment he’s telling her to get in, the next he’s telling her to get out. What’s his problem?” Mia thought, exasperated.
Hunter pressed his lips together, then bent down and scooped her up in his arms. Turning to Sam, he instructed, "You drive Miss Walker home."
Mia immediately understood his intentions. Jenna had complained about the cold wind, so Hunter had simply decided to have her leave with Sam. Should she applaud him for his thoughtfulness?
Sam glanced at Mia’s pale face, hesitating. Wasn’t Mr. Jasper aware that this might hurt his wife? He had a sinking feeling that Hunter was driving their relationship closer to the edge with each passing day.
"Hunter, aren’t you coming with me?" Jenna asked, her eyes fixed jealously on Mia, now held close in his arms. She would rather brave the cold with him than leave alone.
Mia caught Jenna’s murderous glare and raised her eyebrows with a slight smirk. “Oh, jealous, are we?” she thought.
Without missing a beat, she wrapped her arms around Hunter’s neck and purred, “Hubby…”
If it was all just an act, she could put on a show too.
Jenna was on the verge of exploding. “That woman, that despicable woman!” Jenna fumed.
Mia’s soft and seductive voice lingered in Hunter’s mind, bringing to life a flood of intimate memories. The way she wrapped those long legs around him, whispering “Hubby” in the same alluring way, had driven him to madness every time.
His body tensed as a warmth crept up. Catching sight of Sam still waiting by the car, he snapped, “Well? Get moving!” His voice was rougher than usual.
