Tempted Trapped and Too Late to Run novel Chapter 613

Aiden was starting to get nervous. He couldn’t stop himself—he picked up the phone and called Richard.

If anyone could change the boss’s mind, it was Richard.

Richard showed up fast. When he heard Clara had run off, his brows pulled together, but then a slow grin crept across his face.

His first thought? This was about to get interesting.

Clara really was pushing her luck.

But as soon as Richard walked in and saw the look on Dylan’s face, even he had to curse Clara under his breath. No matter how calm he tried to stay, he couldn’t help it.

Seriously, Clara? She was living the high life at Palm Bay. Was it really so hard to just stay put and enjoy it? Why did she have to stir things up and make everyone miserable?

Richard headed for the window, reaching for the curtains, but Dylan stopped him.

“Don’t,” Dylan said quietly.

Richard let go, paused, then turned around. “If you’re this upset, just go get her. What’s the point of starving yourself? You think sulking will make her feel bad? She’s probably out there having the time of her life. If you actually starved to death, I bet she’d be over it and married again in no time. You believe me?”

Dylan just sat there, his hand resting on the pillow. He didn’t say anything.

He couldn’t eat.

The master bedroom felt huge and empty. Richard found a spot and sat down, shaking his head. “At least eat something. I’ll go hunt her down for you if you want.”

Dylan’s suit was still perfect, every detail in place.

To everyone else, he looked as cold and flawless as ever.

Even around his closest friends, nothing changed.

“No need,” Dylan said.

Richard was a little surprised. Really? He wasn’t going after her?

He could actually hold back?

Dylan leaned against the bed, face pale. “Let her have a few days out there. Let her have her fun.”
