Chapter 774

• They ate in silence for the next five minutes or so while he tried to process what she had told him. He was angry no doubt. There was no reason for her to be so tight with another man but he could almost see her logic. If he had been more attentive then maybe this whole thing wouldn't have happened. Also other than not telling him about being so flirty with this shithead she hadn't actually lied to him. Lies of omission sure enough but so far he could overlook her behavior and work to fix this. He would talk to her and get her side of the story. As long as she was honest and agreed to stay away from asshole they could move on. So far he didn't see any lasting damage done. Unless something happened within the last three weeks.
• "So tell me about three weeks ago, how bad is it?" He was back on some solid mental ground. He had his feet under him. He could work with this.
• She looked at him with sympathy.
