Having the last word with Lance empowers me, so my entire drive to the bookstore I have Beyoncé blaring and my neck rolling.

“I used to want you so bad. I’m so through with that,” I sing at the top of my lungs with the windows down. My hair flows in the wind along with my words. “Best thing you never had.”

Freedom feels good.

As I amp up for verse two, my cell phone rings.

I use my hands-free device to answer the call and fumble for the knob to turn down the music.

“I hear things have been going well with Devlin,” the elder Masters says.

I bite back a smile.

“Yes. He is listening to advice, rethinking some of his decisions, and trying methods of relaxation,” I report.

“Good. I am trying to get the evaluation moved up to next Monday, before the wedding, so that Dev can be in position when Trevor becomes my son-in-law.” He says the last words as though they feel sour in his mouth. This makes me wonder.

“I don’t want to overstep, sir.” I add a sign of respect to frame my disrespectful question. “Why put Trevor in place if you didn’t really want him to run the company?”

I brace myself for blowback. I don’t know David Masters very well, and technically, he is my employer, but I also want to understand.

“You care about Dev?” he counters.

“Devlin is a hardworking and genuine person.”

“And with people like you in his life, he’ll make be a great president of the company, and an even greater man,” he concludes.

He had answered my question, and told me nothing at all.

One thing still worries me, though. David Masters is right about one thing. I do like his son entirely more than I should.

“I was wondering if you planned on telling Devlin who I am, or how I could give a statement without giving my identity?” I question tentatively.

It shouldn’t matter. Our relationship isn’t real. But the idea of Devlin knowing that I haven’t been completely honest with him fills me with dread.

“You will be able to complete a notarized written statement for review that will be sealed. Only the executive review board will look at the statement and have access to your identity. He will never know,” he assures me.

“Thank you.”

“Have a good day, Miss Winters.”
