Chapter Seven
Emma and Dylan had been gracious enough to invite Jade to the rehearsal dinner Friday night at the lodge, but she declined. After handing Tomás every key to her queendom along with check-writing capabilities, she was on the verge of a mini-meltdown. She thrived on control, as did Liv. Even though she had promoted Tomás last week, it wasn’t the same as giving him access to the business bank accounts to pay vendors and their employees along with the power to make both business and financial decisions in her absence. After a caterer almost bailed because she couldn’t transfer funds into their account on time, she realized something had to give.
She trusted Tomás, she just didn’t like relying on someone else to run her company or any other aspect of her life. Which must be driving Liv crazy, because that’s exactly what Jade was doing for her. She wished her sister would call. They’d never gone this long without some form of communication. Whether it had been a brief text message or a voice mail, they’d kept in contact with each other. Every morning she reached for her phone and fought the disappointment of the deafening silence.
“How about we go for a walk?” Jade asked the girls, who were happily rocking in the new infant seats Wes had bought them. He was right, they really were a godsend. Emma showed her how she used hers with her six-month-old daughter, Holly, who Jade was relieved to see looked nothing like the triplets. Feeding and naps were much easier and she was sure Liv would appreciate that when she returned home.
Jade bundled the girls in their triplet stroller and set off on the paved path that wound around the ranch. “Your mommy would love it here.” It was unfortunate Wes and Liv hadn’t been a real couple. The girls would have enjoyed growing up on the ranch with family. It was ironic in a way. Liv wanted family so desperately, and even chose a man to father her children from Saddle Ridge’s largest, yet they both wanted to keep the girls a secret from their cousins, aunts and uncles. Jade and Liv never had any of those people in their lives. Maybe if they had they would have grown up loved.
Her sister’s poor decision making still bothered her. It had been one thing to ask Jade to be the egg donor. But Wes? Lookswise, there was no arguing he was a fine specimen of a man. But his attitude...maybe not so much considering she hadn’t seen him since before he left for South Dakota on Tuesday. He’d come back last night, according to Maddie, who had seen him while she was locking lips with Jarrod behind the stables. He texted her and had even called twice, but she had been on the phone with Tomás and a client and couldn’t answer. When she called back, it went straight to voice mail, as if he’d turned off his phone.
It didn’t matter, anyway.
