Mr. Cook’s eyes popped open and Jay fake-laughed. “That’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard.â€? he growled.

Mr. Cook cleared his throat. “That’s a serious accusation, Mr. Hanson. Are you sure of this? Proof of anything?â€?

Alex ignored Jay’s death stare and said, “Yeah, I’ve got proof. She has a broken wrist and hurt ribs.â€?

“That could be from anything.â€? Jay interrupted.

“Mr. Penner, I wasn’t speaking with you. Why don’t you wait outside the office?â€?

Jay got up and left the room but he saw Chloe walking through front doors. He strolled toward her and she didn’t see him until he was towering over her. Chloe’s eyes widened and tried to run but Jay’s hands held onto her and she started having flashbacks of that night.

“Hi Chloe.â€? He roared and she flinched. “We’ve got some business to discuss. I know most guys don’t talk to random fuck buddies but this is serious.â€? Jay wrapped one hand over her mouth before pulling her into the custodian closest and locking the door.

Darkness again.
