Chapter 16

Nolan couldn’t sleep. He suspected it had something to do with the blonde residing next door. After pizza and a movie, he came back to his place. If he stayed another second, he would have had her beneath him again, and this time, there wouldn’t have been a pizza delivery to stop them.

He kicked his legs over the bed, accepting that he wasn’t getting to sleep anytime soon, and ran a hand over his face. What the hell had he been thinking? He hadn’t been, that was the problem. Whenever he was around Isla, all brain function went out the damn window.

She made it so hard to hate her, to even be mad at her. She was pure light, and like a moth, he was attracted to her. He didn’t care if she’d burned him before, not when everything about her was drawing him in.

Needing to get her off his mind, he reached for his cellphone. His eye instantly went to the notification indicating he had new text messages. He hadn’t looked at his phone since before he’d gone to Isla’s, and it had been freeing, after constantly being on it for work.

He opened the texts, surprised to see two of the three were from George. He’d thought when George called him the other day it had been an accident, but maybe it wasn’t. He should delete the texts without even reading them, but curiosity got the better of him. He opened the text.

Hey. Can you let me know where you kept the files for the Bristal account?

Nolan shook his head. He went over this with his replacement. He kept all of his files in alphabetized folders on the network. If they couldn’t find that folder, then how were they getting any work done? Unless they were working on all new clients, but the chances of that were slim to none.

He clicked into the next text.

The PDF for the Dunkerman contract is password protected. Can you please send the password when you get a moment?

Unbelievable. Nolan gave the moron the password and told him to write it down.

The desire to toss his phone on the nightstand was strong, but George had given him a chance all those years ago. He didn’t owe him anything, but Nolan also couldn’t not help the guy who had at one point in time had been his mentor, so he sent him a quick text, letting him know where to find the files and added a snide remark about how his nephew was given all this information and should have written it down.

“Idiot,” Nolan said as he stood and put his phone on the nightstand. “This is the guy that got my promotion.” Annoyed, he headed out of the bedroom and to the kitchen. He grabbed a beer out of the fridge, hoping the alcohol would at least make him tired enough to get a few hours in.

He sat on the couch and turned the TV on. There was nothing on at one in the morning except for a bunch of infomercials for things he would never buy.
