Still not believing this, I scoff. “What is she, a stripper?
Chapter 13
Beth
I can’t believe what I’m hearing. I don’t believe it. I’ve gotten so much mail saying practically the same thing, so none of it can be true. This is just a sick joke. Tyson and Allison are getting back at us for not telling them that we hooked up after their party.
Or Tyson’s investigator could totally be wrong, right? Jacob doesn’t seem to believe it either, as he continues to make jokes.
“Is this a belated April Fool’s Day joke?”
“Sorry, bud.”
“I’m not married, I would know if I was. I would remember it.”
“If your week in Vegas was anything like those movies, you could have done some rock star damage to a hotel room, gotten arrested and not remembered it.” Tyson says quietly.
“Well, then if it’s true, I’ll just get it annulled.”
“I think that ship has sailed; it’s been a year or so.”
“But he was drunk when he and this woman did this, if it’s true. That’s grounds for an annulment.” I say.
“He can’t prove that. I mean, granted it’s Vegas and it’s likely everyone who gets married there is drinking. But it’s also likely that you consummated the marriage.” Tyson says, as I cringe.
“Then I’ll get a divorce.” Jacob shrugs as if this whole conversation is no big deal.
I tune out for the rest of the conversation as I was in disbelief. Allison saw my discomfort and motions towards another part of the penthouse.
“You okay?” she asks, as we sit down on the love seat.
“Do you think it’s real?” I question, rather than answer her.
“I think that it’s something that can be easily fixed.” she says, not answering my direct question, but jumping to the other question meandering in my head.
Jacob said in not so many words that he didn’t want to talk about the situation until he had more information, but he acted distant for the remainder of the night. His public persona emerged, the cold, calculating businessman versus the playful, private version of himself was who I was used to being around, and it sucks. This wasn’t something that could be swept under the rug and ignored, and this wasn’t something that is easy to deal with. The bottom line is that my boyfriend is married. Granted he didn’t know he was married, but he’s still married.
We crawled into bed together and, as I settled into the crook of his shoulder, he held me to him tighter. He kisses the top of my head as I snuggle in, then runs his hand down my upper arm.
“So, you haven’t said anything about any of what’s going on.” he says. “I’m going to get this taken care of, I swear it.” He promises.
“Do you remember any of this?” I ask, hoping that he will say what I want him to say.
“Not a thing,” he says with confidence. “Before you, I never even gave marriage a thought.” he says in a whisper as my breath hitches.
I don’t make it known
