Keaton had one goal the next morning when Tilly left to visit several banks to see if they were connected to the key—to stay away from Elise. He called Knox, who said Bea was doing better physically but still wasn’t saying much. He did research on the charity he wanted to set up and finally felt a sense of relief when he realized Tilly should be back in within the hour.

He should take her out for lunch, and if they went out, they wouldn’t have to worry about Elise being an unwelcome third party. He left Kipling’s home office where he’d been working and jogged up the stairs to his room, freezing completely when he found Elise sitting on his bed.

“Get out,” he said through clenched teeth. “I don’t want you in here.”

Elise had a sly grin. “You think this is about what you want? You poor misguided fool.”

“Out. Now.”

“I don’t think it’s wise for you to kick me out without hearing my deal first.”

“You must have me confused with Kipling. I’m not the dealmaker in the family.”

She still wore that damn grin. Like no matter what he said, she somehow knew this conversation was going to go the way she wanted. “This is nice.” She patted the bed. “But I think I’d like a firmer mattress. I find it much more conducive to sex.”

He felt his blood begin to boil. She had some nerve.“Your opinion on my choice of mattress is irrelevant. I wouldn’t fuck you if we were the last two humans on earth and needed to repopulate the planet.”

“So stubborn. Let me be more frank. Not only will you fuck me, you’re going to marry me because I have some rather damning information about your dad.” He started to protest, but she held up her hand. “Not only that, but if you refuse, I can work it to where it appears as if all the Benedict brothers knew about it. Benedict Industries will be ruined.”

Was she serious? “I don’t believe you.”

She appeared entirely too joyful for his taste. “The Benedict men are known for being players. It’s part of your nature, and I understand. That’s why I haven’t put a stop to you and Tilly. But rest assured, it’s coming.”

He rolled his eyes. “Can we get on with it, I’m taking Tilly out to lunch.”

He didn’t imagine the flash of ire in her expression before she continued. “It’s not your fault women spread their legs for Benedict cock, and I don’t blame you for giving it to them. After all, it’s in your genes. A lesson I believe your mom learned early.”

He did his best to hide his grimace. He’d always suspected his father cheated on his mom, but to have it so well known that Elise knew about it, was embarrassing.

“Of course, your father took the necessary precautions. After all, he didn’t want to be bothered with bastard children.” There was no denying it now, Elsie was positively elated to be sharing this story with him. “But, as you’re aware, the only effective way to ensure no one gets pregnant is to not have sex.
