When Love Breaks by jack novel Chapter 66

Chapter 66

“He won’t hurt Margaret,” I said, shaking my head with a mix of resolve and resignation.

That would only happen if he ever found out the real reason behind his mother’s death. Maybe then, just maybe, he’d change his attitude towards Margaret.

But until that day, it seemed nearly impossible.

Speaking of which, it baffled me why Timothy never spilled the beans to Bryant. I guess a trip back to the Ferguson Mansion was overdue to finally get some answers.

Near the end of lunch, I steered the conversation back on track, “By the way, Chris, did you manage to snag those concert tickets?”

Christine had far more connections within the company than I did.

When the concert was announced, I immediately asked her to help me get tickets.

Christine pointed upwards, rolling her eyes, “For some reason, this time tickets are exclusively available through the CEO’s office. Everyone got just one; no extras.”

“Only from the CEO’s office?”

“Yeah. If you really want them, why not ask Bryant while he’s trying to win you over? He could probably get you as many as you want.”

“I’d rather not.”

Keeping a clear boundary between Bryant and me seemed for the best.

Though, that was merely my side of things.

No sooner had I returned to my office than Bryant’s call came through.

I walked over to the window to answer, greeted by his magnetic voice on the other end.

“Are you free Saturday night? Want to go to a concert together?”

“You’ve got extra tickets, huh?”

I wasn’t going to ask, but if it was offered, I had to consider Linda.

“Yes.”

“Can I get two tickets?” Linda would likely want to bring a friend; better safe than sorry.

“I’ll have Kevin bring them down to you.”

“Alright.”

“And you?”

“What?”

“I’ve answered two of your questions. You haven’t answered any of mine,” he said, his voice dropping lower.
