Chapter 11

Garrett

I had barely gotten all my clothes back on when Sid knocked on the front door and let himself in. My breathing was heavy and I just knew he was going to be able to tell I had just slept with his daughter.

“Everything all right? I know it’s a small cabin, but I think it’s better than the bunkhouse.”

“Oh, yes, sir. It’s perfect. I was just trying to clean it up a bit before heading back out to work.”

Sid looked around the cabin at the mess that Forest had left in there. He paused for a very long time and it even seemed like he had looked at the bathroom door that was closed. I desperately hoped he wouldn’t find a reason to go over there and look in the bathroom.

“Have you seen Sarah?”

“Nope,” I lied to him.

I hated to flat out lie to a man like Sid, but I also didn’t want him to chase me out of town with his shotgun, so lying was really the only option. It was a small lie, nothing that would cause too much harm and I hoped that it wouldn’t come back to me.

It was funny to me that I was even thinking about lying at all. As a CEO, the consequences of lying hadn’t really even been on my radar. I lied all the time. I told people what they wanted to hear so I could get what I wanted out of situations. In the business world, I had thought that honesty was a liability. But I was starting to see that my way of thinking had been skewed back then.

As I looked back on my career, I certainly could have been more truthful in my interactions with other businesses. My lies hadn’t ended up saving my company from getting into bad situations, my lies had really only saved me the personal uncomfortable feeling of sitting in front of someone and telling them the truth. But the truth always came out and I always ended up figuring out a better or different way to complete what I had lied to people about.

I had a feeling that eventually Sid would find out that I had been having sex with his daughter. I could only hope that when that finally happened, he would forgive me and not shoot me. Sarah was an adult, she was able to make her own choices, and so was I. If we wanted to have a little fun between the sheets, it really wasn’t any of Sid’s business.

“If you see her, tell her to come find me.”

“Will do.”

“Here, I’ll walk with you back to the horse barn; maybe she’s there,” Sid said as we walked out of the cabin.

There wasn’t time for me to protest, so I walked with Sid out of the cabin and toward the horse barn. At least I was getting him away from the cabin so Sarah could sneak out. I felt like a teenager trying to trick my girlfriend’s father. It was scary as hell and my adrenaline was pumping hard by the time we got to the horse barn.
