We finally pulled up to Gonzo’s Diner and got out after we parked. Many people had their eyes on the car and took their phones out to take pictures. The familiar scent of Gonzo’s Philly cheesesteaks emanated out of the diner and smacked me with a moment of nostalgia.

“Let’s sit over here,” Sam suggested once we were inside, walking with his cane to a booth to the far right, in the corner, with a nice window view. It used to be our favorite booth and I was sure that fact wasn’t lost on him although he appeared to be innocently suggesting it.

I scooted into the seat and Sam sat across from me.

Okay, Wendy, don’t stare into his eyes, don’t do it…

I did it. What an idiot I was.

The waitress who came over to take our orders served as a mild distraction and I was grateful for that.

Now that she was gone, that heavy feeling was creeping back in again.

“So, you’re going to marry me,” Sam said, without wasting any time.

“Huh?” I rubbed my forehead and sighed. “Oh, that. Sorry, I was in another world for a second.”

“I can tell.”

The waitress came back with our drinks and then Sam kept talking.

“So, in less than two weeks, an important man, John Gallock, will be coming to meet both of us. He needs to invest in my company and I need to show him that I’m a married man. For now.” Sam took a sip of his drink. Seeing him in business man mode was very sexy.

Yeah sure, he was the same old Sam I used to know and love, but this Sam was more refined, mature and smart. My cheeks flushed with heat and I struggled to follow his words.

“So, I guess we have to go to the court to get married,” I said, trying to get my mind off Sam’s good looks.

“Yes. But more than that. We need a wedding and all.”

I choked on my drink. “Wedding?”

“Gotta make it real as possible. Plus, I want to have you move in—”

“Absolutely not.” That’d be going way too far. I still remembered what happened between us. And even though we were young, it was the biggest betrayal of my life.

I folded my arms and leaned back in my booth seat.

“Wendy, I really need your cooperation.”

I was so annoyed that he would ask this of me. I had my own life, damn it. Plus, I had my father to take care of. I couldn’t just leave him behind or flaunt Sam’s wealth in his face.

Not after he lost so damn much.

“Sam, I… it’s complicated. I can’t just leap like that.”

“But it’s part of our agreement,” he said.

The waitress came back with our food and set it down in front of us. Sam didn’t even glance down. He just stared at me.

I hadn’t known it was all part of the deal. I wasn’t even sure that it was. But I had little power in this situation. Eliza’s reminder swept through my mind. I couldn’t say no to Sam and risk one point two million dollars.
