wtmw ch.4 sneak peek
Against her better judgment, Elena timidly entered the room, standing in front of his desk, her hands clenched into fists. “What is it, David?”
He messed around with the files on his desk a moment, then looked up at her, looking rather somber. It almost made her roll her eyes. “I just wanted to say that--I’m sorry for what happened to your father.”
“Hm.” Her lips cinched to the side, her head slowly nodding at his words. “Not so sorry that you decided to tell Steve about it.” The somber look on his face was gone very quickly. Of course, it was just an act.
“What does it even matter?” David leaned back in his chair, not at all concerned about how she felt about it. “He was bound to find out sooner or later.”
“I was going to tell him when I got to work this morning,” she tilted her head down to meet his gaze. “But, you decided to do that for me.”
“It’s not a big deal, Caro.”
“It’s not your fucking business to tell, David.” The rage was boiling in her stomach, the sting in her waterline nearly sent her into a panic. There was no way she was going to cry in front of David Howard. The prick wouldn’t let her live that down. “Do me a favor, any information that has to do with me, you keep it out of your mouth. Got it?”
I didn’t even include the dialogue that makes him even more of an asshole!
