Second Chance Scandal - Page 24

“You either hear it from me, or you’ll be hearing it from my lawyer.”

“Your lawyer?” I bit out, overwhelmed by the turn of events. “What does your lawyer have to do with anything?”

“By law, Sophie, he’s mine.”

“You don’t even understand the meaning of that word.”

“I understand what will happen if I go before the judge and request a paternity test.”

“You fucking asshole!”

“There she is. There’s my feisty girl coming out to play.”

“That’s all this is to you, isn’t it? Just another game! You can’t barge into my home and start making demands, Jax! I don’t care who you think you are! This is my house. Now get the hell out!”

“I’ll leave as soon as you tell me he’s mine. Don’t force my hand, Sophie. You won’t like the consequences.”

My anger exploded.

Big.

Loud.

Boom.

I grabbed the first thing I saw, which happened to be the roses Bradley sent me, and chucked them at his head.

Of course, he ducked and was in my face in three strides. Backing me into the wall, he caged me in with his arms next to my head.

I didn’t back down, holding my chin higher in defiance. “I’m not scared of you.”

“That’s interesting because I’m terrified of you. How could you keep him from me?”

“I didn’t. He’s not yours.”

“You’re lying. You want to know how I know?”

“I don’t want to know anything. All I want is for you to leave. Now!”

“You blink when you lie.”

“I do not.”

“You do.”

I groaned in frustration, shoving him away, but he didn’t budge an inch.

Fucking quarterback.

Despite my refusal, he kept talking. “The first time I figured it out was when you told me you didn’t want me to kiss you. You were lying then, and you’re lying now.”

I shook my head, perplexed by his statement. “How do you even remember that?”

He swept the hair away from my face, placing it behind my ear. “I remember everything about you. From the way you couldn’t look me in the eyes when other people were around but I had your complete devotion when we were alone. Or how I couldn’t graze your skin without your face getting flushed, exactly the way it is right now.”

“If my face is flushed it’s only from you pissing me off!”

“You want to know what I remember the most?”
