Chapter Nine

“Any ideas where I should take Megan for a couple of days’ break?” Jacey directed his question to Gerard and Henry as they worked together on a quote for a new job in Queenstown.

Gerard lifted his gaze from his laptop. “Wanaka is nice.”

“No, stay away from the touristy areas. More chance of someone recognizing Megan,” Henry said. “What about Cromwell? It’s an interesting town because of the way they flooded the old town to create the dam. There are good pubs—historical ones. You can check out the old gold mining sites and there are loads of vineyards to visit. You could play golf or go for a walk. Book in at a motel or one of the upmarket places that will guarantee your privacy.”

“Good suggestion.” Gerard nodded approval. “Make sure you wear hats and sunglasses when you go out in public. Henry is right. Cromwell would be perfect—low-key and relaxing. Reporters would expect you to go to Queenstown or Wanaka or farther afield.”

“Plan,” Jacey said.

“Pop.” Gerard surprised Jacey until he deciphered the teasing in the young man. “This role reversal is kind of fun. Now I know you’re using condoms, but do you need any other advice?” Gerard stood to drape his arm around Henry’s broad shoulders, and his son and best friend studied him, eyes ablaze with their pleasure at the teasing. “Henry and I would be glad to offer our help. What are you wearing?”

A snort erupted from Jacey. “As little as possible, and that’s all you need to know, pups. I can handle things from here without your help. I’m not too old to manage internet research. What else do we need to consider for the quote? Extra labor? Where are you going to find more labor out here?”

“Not a problem,” Henry said. “I spoke to Joe and Sly Mitchell yesterday between games. The twins are looking for work now that they’ve almost finished at varsity. Joe told me they have their eye on a parcel of land and want to save a deposit. He said some of their friends would lend a hand.”

“Good.” Gerard sat in front of his laptop again. “Leo suggested I check in with his brothers. He said that he and Isabella would help us in a jam. Felix and Saber too, although they need more notice to juggle their other responsibilities.”

Two hours later, Jacey drove back to the Middlemarch School, confident his plans were underway. Now all he had to do was sneak Megan out from under the noses of the reporters.

Cars jammed the area around the school, and he ended up parking by the café and walking back to the school.

“There he is!” someone shouted as he approached the entrance to the sports fields.

Jacey blinked as a man thrust a microphone at him.

“You! Sir? How long have you known Megan Saxon? Are you an item? How long have you been dating? Did you break up her relationship with the politician?”

What politician? Jacey frowned and ignored the questions to push past the growing crowd.
