Chapter Twenty

Ash

After meeting Jake’s best friend, Collin, I could see where the two had a connection in this crazy bubble of wealthy people we were surrounded by. I also noted their connection on the medical level, both exchanging stories about patients and their success—Jake’s in heart disease and Collin’s in neurosurgery. More than once, I found myself having to do a double-take on the young blond man with sky blue eyes and Jake. They were so gorgeous they could have made a fortune as models, but instead, their hearts and passion were in the medical science industry.

Collin was one whose eyes and smile could take any woman and bring her to her knees. I couldn’t imagine the single life for these two, and I bet some women were praying that either one of them would look in their direction.

Then there was big brother, Jim, and his best friend, Alex, who was president of Mitchell and Associates. Both men worked side-by-side to run the well-oiled machine of a company that owned everything under the sun, including some minor league sports team.

The men were good company to be in, and I found myself quieter than I’d anticipated as I listened to them talk and catch up after their long days from work. Maybe it was the beer I was nursing that was fizzling me out or just my interest and intrigue, watching the men talk.

“So, you’re really going to let this nut date you, eh?” Collin asked while taking a sip of his gin and tonic. “He’s a prick. You know that, right?”

I laughed. “You watch too much television,” I said, Jake smiling down at me and joining in on the conversation. “Don’t believe everything you hear.”

“Ah,” Alex said, joining in from across the bar where we all sat, “but he does have a complete douchebag for a brother…” He paused and sipped his bourbon. “One who, apparently, still hasn’t figured his shit out yet.” He looked over at Jim. “If you ran the company the way you ran your pathetic love life, we’d be fucked.”

“God knows that.” Jake raised his beer to Jim’s smile.

“God may indeed know,” Collin said, looking over his shoulder at the troop of girls sitting over in the lounge area of the upper deck. “But does Jake know how stupid you really can be?”

“What the hell am I missing?” Jake asked, glancing over his shoulder at the girls.

Shit! They’re bringing up Lillian.

“What you don’t see, you don’t know, little brother.” Jim winked, and then suddenly, this derail of conversation had me in Jim’s arms as Jake fought off Collin and Alex as they dragged him away. Jake recovered from being flung out into the pool, and he turned what should have been an embarrassing moment into a swan dive into the pool.

“You’ll have to forgive me, Ash.” Jim smiled, and it was the first time I saw the man’s face light and humorous. “But this might be the worst of your troubles due to Jake.”

With that, Jim was more generous than the other two, and he softly nudged me into the deep end of the glowing pool.
