The Returning Ex

Upon hearing that question, John was noticeably startled. His brows creased deeply, and his expression turned severe. Surprisingly, Zack wasn’t afraid this time. He remained staring at John. “Boss, do you have feelings for Miss Bailey?”

John’s expression grew frosty. “Leave.” When he noticed that Zack didn’t move, he warned, “Don’t make me repeat myself.”

Zack pursed his lips. He knew that he’d somewhat pissed John off, but still, he muttered, “It’s a yes or no question. What’s there to be chagrined about?” After saying this, he pivoted and left.

When he’d left and closed the door behind him, John shoved the mouse away irritably. Do I have feelings for Isabelle Bailey? I’ve actually never considered this question. As for whether I’ve ever considered taking my relationship with her further… I did. Since she got along well with Mom, I’d indeed wondered whether I should just marry her.

He felt discomfited at such a thought, unsettled from head to toe and inside out.
