Falling For The Wrong Kane Chapter 41
Jonah’s POV The drive to the Whitworth house was quiet for the first few minutes. Brooke sat beside me, scrolling through messages on her phone while I stared through the windshield, going over everything I had discovered in the Whitworth system.I had spent the previous night studying their finances, and the more I understood, the clearer the weakness became. Whitworth wasn't completely failing, but the company was carrying more debt than it could comfortably manage, and several of its major investments were performing badly. Their cash flow depended heavily on a few financing arrangements that could become a problem if investors started losing confidence.I had already made sure that would happen, and I had simply needed the right opportunity to take advantage of it.“Dad said the meeting shouldn't take too long.” Brooke said, putting her phone into her handbag. “He wants to discuss the repairs first, then there's something else he wants to talk to you about.” She added.“What
Falling For The Wrong Kane Chapter 40
Jonah’s POV I watched Wren disappear into the storage room with the remaining supplies, and for a moment, I considered following her.Brooke was still beside me, her arm linked through mine, so I forced myself to look at her instead.“You're unusually quiet, is something wrong?” she said as we walked away from the rink. “Nothing is wrong. I was just thinking about the meeting with your father.” I looked away from her with a deep sigh. “He was actually impressed that you stepped in.” Brooke nodded and rested her head briefly against my shoulder. “I didn't do anything special.” I scoffed. “That's one of the things I like about you. You are so generous and treat poor people kindly.” She smiled.I returned the smile, but my mind wasn't on her. It was Wren walking away from me.I knew why she had done it. The moment Brooke appeared, Wren had remembered exactly where she stood in my life, and I couldn't blame her for protecting herself.The problem was that I didn't want her to.I spe

Wren's POV I woke up the next morning still thinking about the night before.The memory of Rhett catching me in the rain came back first, followed by the kiss that had left me standing there long after I had forgotten about the rain soaking through my clothes.I reached for my phone and checked the time before getting out of bed. My roommate was already awake and watching me from across the room.“You're smiling,” she said.“I just woke up.” I rolled my eyes pretending not to understand what she was saying. “Oh come on, don't be like that. I know something definitely happened. You seem different this morning, like a different type of glow.” She jumped over to my bed and I knew for a fact she's not going to let the matter go.“What do you want me to say?” I grabbed my towel from the chair. “I don't know, you tell me. You are the one who experienced something life changing.” She teased me. “Nothing special, I just went out with Rhett after dinner.” I gave her a brief explanation cau
Falling For The Wrong Kane Chapter 38
Jonah’s POV The kiss lasted longer than I intended.I could feel Wren's hands against my shoulders as the rain soaked through both of us, and I tightened my arms around her waist. There was no thought of Brooke, my family, the engagement, or the consequences waiting for us once the night ended. There was only Wren standing in front of me and the way she had kissed me back without hesitation.When we finally pulled apart, she kept her hands on my shoulders and looked up at me. Her cheeks were flushed, and her wet hair clung to the sides of her face.“We're completely soaked,” she said, laughing softly.“You think?” I looked down at my shirt. She laughed again and hurried toward the car.I followed her, opened the passenger door, and waited for her to climb inside before getting behind the wheel. The moment I started the engine, I turned the heat all the way up.“Your car is going to smell like wet clothes.” Wren rubbed her arms. “My car will survive.” I smiled at her. “You're no

Wren's POV The ice cream shop was almost empty when we arrived, which was probably the only reason I agreed to let Rhett drag me inside at that hour.He ordered two large cups before I could decide what I wanted.“You didn't even ask me what flavor I wanted.” I complained as we sat down.“I know you like chocolate.” He chuckled.“How do you know that?” I looked at him.“You have ordered chocolate ice cream every time we have been around food together.” He said, and I couldn't help but wonder if he had been stalking me.“That doesn't mean I want it tonight.” I frowned. “Then you can give it back.” He pushed the cup toward me. “I'm keeping it.” I pulled it closer. “That's what I thought.” He laughed. We sat there longer than we needed to, eating ice cream and talking about things that had nothing to do with school, hockey, Brooke, or my family.I told him about some of the ridiculous things my roommate had done since we became friends, and he laughed so hard at one story that he ne
Falling For The Wrong Kane Chapter 36
Jonah’s POV The awkward silence that followed my confession made me shrugg but I still could not bring myself to look away from her. I hadn't planned to say them. I hadn't even realized they were sitting that close to the surface until they came out.Wren lowered her eyes to the table, and I watched her fingers tighten slightly around the edge of her napkin. She didn't tell me she felt the same way, but she didn't tell me she didn't either.I leaned back in my chair, suddenly aware of how quiet the room had become.“I shouldn't have said that,” I murmured.“Why?” She looked up at me. “Because I don't know what you are supposed to do with it.”“And what am I supposed to do with it?” She studied my face. “I don't know.” I shut my eyes for a second. Her lips parted as if she wanted to say something, but she stopped. I couldn't look away from her.For weeks, I had been trying to convince myself that whatever I felt for her was temporary. Attraction, curiosity, and the thrill of bein
