I stepped out of the office building and Nia paused and gently touched my lower back. This was the moment when I had to step out on my own. She was just there for moral support, or if something went terribly wrong.
Everyone started shouting questions at me.
I was not meant for this kind of life.
My hands started to sweat and shake.
My entire career was built from working on contracts. Reading contracts. Navigating corporate law, most of the time on my own. And even in meetings, they were controlled meetings with an outcome. It was black and white on paper. If anything got out of hand, then it went to other lawyers or even a judge to make a decision.
But all of this⦠this was on me.
This was because of me.
I wanted to blame Jay, but I knew I couldnât.
He was just an idiot rock star celebrity looking for a story.
If anything, he was the one looking for attention.
Not me.
I prided myself and my life for not having any attention at all.
And this attention wouldnât be for long.
A quick statement and I was done.
This was over.
My night in Vegas was lingering, but it wouldnât linger forever.
I put my right hand up to quiet the reporters or paparazzi or whatever they are.
âPlease stop taking my picture,â I said. âI came out here to talk. So please respect me. Respect who I am. And who I am⦠Iâm just a regular person. A simple person. Okay? I work as a corporate lawyer. I want nothing to do with the glitz and glam of being in front of a camera or even talking to you. Iâm scared to death right now. And speaking of deathâ¦â I licked my lips. âYes, my grandmother is dying of cancer. I will not discuss her medical issues publicly. My grandmother is the greatest person in my life. And she-â
âWhat about the money?â someone asked.
âThere is no money,â I said.
âReports say you need the cash,â someone else said. âYour grandmother is out of money. You need it for treatments.â
âHow did you convince Jay to make this work?â another yelled.
âDid you know about the band and their past?â
âHow far in advance did you plan this out?â
âIs Jay going to just give up the cash?â
The questions started to fly from all angles.
I looked back at Nia.
She was looking at her phone, smiling.
âI, uh⦠this wasnâtâ¦â
âHow come youâre wearing your wedding ring?â
âDoes your grandmother know what youâre doing?â
âFrankly, Wren, what gives you the right to do this to someone?â
âIâm not doing anythingâ¦â
My chin started to quiver.
The group of people then got louder.
They started taking pictures again.
Before I could say anything, a hand touched my back.
I sucked in a breath and turned my head.
My jaw dropped when I saw Jay standing next to me.
His hands slowly moved from my back to my side, pulling me closer to him.
âIâm going to set the record straight right now,â Jay said. âSo, shut your fucking mouths and listen.â
That actually worked.
Everyone shut up.
Jay looked down at me and winked.
