I Forgot I Ever Loved You (Zoe and Hayden) novel Chapter 492

Hayden didn't back down. He lifted his cup and took a slow sip.

"Don't mention it."

On the surface, the two men were exchanging polite toasts, the picture of harmony. Only Timothy could sense the underlying venom.

No matter how he looked at it, Commander Thorne's vibe screamed malice.

Garrett didn't look the least bit grateful; he looked like a hostage.

Yanked back from a tropical vacation... Timothy froze. Was Garrett on vacation with Zoe?

Zoe was nearing her due date, and Garrett was by her side?

What the hell was her legal husband playing at?

Watching them silently wage war, Timothy felt his brain short-circuit.

Did the Commander care about his wife or not?

If he cared, why would he let his heavily pregnant wife jet off with a close family friend while he stayed behind?

If he didn't care, why go through this elaborate scheme to drag Garrett back? Timothy was completely lost.

Before he could untangle the mess, Hayden struck again.

"I heard you were vacationing abroad with your god-sister. I hope I didn't ruin the fun."

Garrett practically cursed out loud at Hayden's shameless, passive-aggressive probing.

Hayden was a master manipulator. Garrett would never reach that level of sheer audacity.

"God-sister?"

Jasper caught the phrase and looked at Garrett with sparked interest.

Now that business was out of the way, a little gossip was a great way to bridge the gap and lighten the mood.

Tristan looked curious too. Garrett shot a deadly glare at Hayden, but Hayden remained completely unbothered, acting as if he hadn't just thrown a live grenade into the room.

"Yeah. Exactly what it sounds like."

Garrett didn't deny it. Under Jasper's sharp gaze, lying was pointless.
