The back seat was spacious, but somehow the two of them ended up pressed close together.

After a moment, though, Isabella shifted even closer to Xavier, until her mouth was nearly at his ear. She turned her head and whispered through clenched teeth, “Xavier, have you had your fun? Just untie me already.”

“Hungry? The place Jacob booked shouldn’t be too far. We should be there soon.”

Xavier gave her a smile, his expression hard to read. The deliberate tenderness in his voice made Isabella’s skin crawl.

No–more than tenderness, it sent a chill down her spine.

But while Isabella felt like she was sitting next to a man who could swallow her whole without batting an eye, to everyone else, Xavier just looked completely devoted to her.

“Mr. Moore’s right. Just hold on another fifteen minutes or so, and we’ll be there,” the driver chimed in right away.

Isabella was speechless. Seeing that, Rachel laughed and said, “Mrs. Moore, you’re really lucky. I heard from Jacob earlier that Mr. Moore can’t even focus on work unless you’re by his side.”

Was Jacob serious? She did not want that kind of reputation, especially when it wasn’t even

true!

She shot Xavier a glare, silently telling him to at least clear things up. But instead, he just smiled, staring into her furious, watery eyes, and said, “A happy home makes everything else go smoothly.”

“That’s so true.” Rachel sighed. “I wasn’t as lucky as you, Mr. Moore. My ex–husband and I have been divorced for five years.”

“Actually, we’ve been talking about divorce too-”

“I was just saying you’ve been craving certain foods, right? Don’t worry. No matter what you’re craving, I can afford it… No need to diet. Even if you get chubby or whatever later on, I’m not divorcing you.”

Isabella could not hold back and started to say something, but Xavier’s deep, emotional voice cut right over hers.

As he spoke, he leaned in and pressed a soft kiss to her cheek.

The atmosphere in the car instantly turned thick and sweet. The two people in the front glanced at the rearview mirror and quickly looked away.

Isabella wanted to curse at him, but with Xavier teasing her like that, her flushed face only made her look like a shy wife.

And no matter what she said, to anyone else it would just come off as a little argument between a married couple. All it would do was embarrass her, while Xavier got to look like the doting husband.

Meanwhile, Skyler took advantage of his lunch break to sneak into Jason’s private room at school.

He had Hannah’s phone with him and had been following the location updates his mom kept sending. That was how he’d ended up at the therapy center.

But as soon as he got there, his mom left again with the man who might be their dad, followed by a whole group of people.

Skyler overheard someone–who seemed to be the man’s assistant–say they were going out to eat… It looked like his mom was on a date with their possible dad!

To avoid getting caught by her, Skyler decided not to follow them today.

He hadn’t seen Jason in a few days, and he missed him!

Jason had been sleeping soundly, hugging a drawing he’d just finished, when suddenly he felt a tickle on the tip of his nose.

He squirmed a little, turned over, and curled up on the other side.

But then the bottom of his foot started tickling too.

Finally, Jason gave a small shiver, opened his big innocent eyes, and sat up with a pout.

And right there in front of him, a face identical to his own was peeking over the edge of the bed, smiling down at him.

Jason froze for a second, his round little face relaxing. Then he broke into a grin, let go of the drawing he’d been holding, and threw himself into Skyler’s arms!

Even though he didn’t make a sound, you could tell he was over the moon.

Skyler patted Jason on the shoulder like a big brother. “Hey, Jason, did you miss me?”
