He opened his mouth, ready to say something, but I didn't give him a chance. I walked around his car and got into a cab across the street.

What I didn't expect was for Brandon and Jenna to follow me to the restaurant.

My client hadn't arrived yet, but the two of them sat down across from me like it was perfectly normal.

I stared at them in disbelief before cutting straight to the point. "I'm meeting with Mr. Anderson from Gem Technologies."

Brandon raised an eyebrow. "Did Mr. Anderson say he didn't want to see me?"

I kept quiet and didn't argue. After all, Brandon was still my boss.

I frowned, remembering what the doctor said when I scheduled the abortion. "You've already had one miscarriage from the car accident, and your uterus was severely damaged. The fact that you're pregnant again is a miracle. If you lose this baby, you may never get another chance."

I pressed my lips together, about to politely decline the wine when Jenna chimed in with a sweet smile. "I've heard Sylvia can really hold her liquor. Can't wait to see it in action!"
