I get a grin in return, taking note of the relief in his eyes He nods toward my wine and asks, “You want another?”

“Uiving his time to me to have conversation

After flagging a passing waitress and ordering another bourbon and wine, he turns to me

“What did you do this weekend?” I ask pleasantly, feeling that’s a safe conversation to have

He grimaces “Met my dad’s fiancée”

“You don’t like her?” I ask with a curious tilt of my head

“I don’t like the fact that he’s known her less than teeks, she’s thirty years younger than he is, and hewith his dick”

“Are he and your mom divorced?”

Asher’s gaze goes to his bourbon, a fond but sad so Heart attack”

“I’ across the table to layboth his wife and uarded

Asher raises his head, giving es the subject as the waitress returns with fresh drinks “Are you sure I can’t talk you into co to Florida with me this week? As your employer, I could demand it”

“Never hurts to ask” He takes a sip from his new drink

I change the subject now “Did you ever bring your wife here?”

Asher freezes, his gaze going slightly flat “Why would you ask that?”

“Never hurts to ask,” I say, throwing his same words back at him Besides, I can’t help but be curious about this man “You’re a sensual man, Asher You don’t hold back I just assumed the woman you chose to spend your life ould be the same”
