She slowly turned and faced Jared. “I didn’t think you’d care if I left—or notice for that matter.”

His eyes darkened. “I noticed. Your husband here?”

Her pulse skittered as she was reminded of the lie she’d been forced to tell.

“We’re not together anymore,” she said quietly.

“You walk out on him, too?”

Ava took a deep breath. “I understand that you’re angry with me, but that’s no reason to be downright cruel.”

“I’m not angry at you, Ava. You have to really care about someone to be angry with them.”

She felt her throat tighten as tears threatened. “Look, you obviously don’t want to see me. So let’s just try to steer clear of each other.”

Ava hesitated, then turned to leave. But he was right behind her, his large hand covering hers on the knob.

“Let go of the door, Ava,” he said. “This time I’m going to be the one walking out first.”
