Chapter Six

Jennifer was waiting in the hall, arms crossed and looking at the spiral glass staircase wrapped around the impressive aquarium. About a month ago she had been right here, walking into Bruce’s life, far from imagining they would end up having a relationship.

And now here she was, totally confused and overwhelmed by his impossible lifestyle and rocky past, uncertain about the future and what to do next. The contrast was unreal. Jennifer couldn’t imagine how fast she got sucked into his world, completely under his spell and how fast she had let him take her heart.

Things were out of control and Jennifer hated that feeling. In all her previous relationships, she’d always decided how things would go. She had always been leading. But this time, she’d found stronger than her. Way stronger. It was a completely new level.

Jennifer knew it wasn’t about the money. Bruce could certainly do things that many other men couldn’t afford to do, but it wasn’t what made him stand out. No, it was something else: he was just so mysterious, deep, secretive, bossy, strong and at the same time, vulnerable, sensitive, and broken.

He’s rich, that’s for sure. He’s richer than most people on this planet. But what price did he have to pay to get there? Billionaire? Yes... but a dark one.

In the back of her mind, Jennifer expected to see Bruce coming and trying to hold her back. She knew he had guests to entertain, but she liked the idea that she was much more important, and that Bruce would run after her to make her stay.

It didn’t happen. He’ll probably call me later.

Jennifer heard the noise of a loud engine behind her, but it didn’t sound familiar. Bruce’s luxury cars usually sounded strong but much smoother and his sports cars were way more powerful. She couldn’t figure out what it was and went out.

In front of her, Jack - obviously embarrassed - opened the door and invited Jennifer to get into an old rusty green minivan.

That’s a joke, right?

Jack saw Jennifer hesitating and explained. “This is Mr. Wilson’s first car. His lucky van, as he likes to call it. He started his first company with it and says he will keep it as long as he’s in business. He insists you try it.”

Jennifer thought about Bruce’s ex-wife. If it was me leaving him back when he was driving that minivan, I’d never imagine he’d become so successful either.

“Thank you, Jack.” Jennifer said with a forced smile. “I’d like to see my grandmother. Do you remember the way?”

“Absolutely, Ms. Stuart.”

***

Jennifer spent the night at Margareta’s place and told her everything. She needed to be reassured and guided, and her Grandma was the perfect person to talk to in such a case.

Even though she told Bruce not to call her, she still hoped that he would and she continually checked her cell phone until her grandmother told her to stop.

“Relax, honey. Forget about him for tonight. He’s not going to call you.”

“How do you know?”

“The way I see him… Hum.
