All Chapters of Broke Up With My Fiance Then Fucked My Brother's Best Friend: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

JAYDEN Most likely, he was imagining it. Hailey had had boyfriends before, the last one for several years, a deadbeat with no job, obviously a selfish bastard judging by Hailey’s lack of experience. He just fucked Hailey and ghosted her. That thought made Jayden insane. Hailey had a big heart, and he hated the idea of anyone taking advantage of her. His fingers flew over his laptop keyboard as he opened his private email. Searching, he finally found the email Gavin had sent to everyone when he got engaged. He found her name in the group and started a new email to her: I need to know you made it home safe and that you’re okay. If I don’t hear from you, I’ll find you. J. He hit Send harder than necessary. Her reply came that evening, when Jayden was home in his New York penthouse: I’m back in Aspen, and I’m alright. H. Leaning back in his desk chair, he closed his eyes. Fuck !He wanted more. Sure, he wanted to know she was safe, but he also wanted her to say more, t

JAYDEN “Taking photos, apparently. She got a degree in fine arts with an emphasis on photography. I saw it in her biography.” Jayden scowled at the screen. He knew she had a fine arts degree, but he didn’t know she was a photographer. Now it pissed him off that Terrence knew more about Hailey than he did. Why hadn’t he known? Maybe it was because he’d spent years holding himself back, using every bit of willpower not to pick her up and take her somewhere, anywhere, with him. “I guarantee her brothers don’t know. They’d have locked her up and thrown away the key if they knew she was doing this shit.” “That’s probably why she never told them,” Terrence said thoughtfully. “She’s an adult, man. She can do what she wants.” “Not this,” Jayden snapped. “She can’t be running around the world, putting herself in danger.” Every hair on his body stood up as he looked at photos of what seemed to be a hurricane, typhoon, or cyclone. He couldn’t tell exactly where they were taken. Al

JAYDEN “She always just called him James. I asked her his last name once and she said it was Smith,” Gavin grumbled. “If you’re trying to check him out, forget it. I already tried. Do you know how common that name is in Colorado? Without knowing his job or anything else, I can’t be sure which James Smith is taking advantage of my little sister,” Gavin admitted gruffly. “Fuck,” Jayden snapped, frustrated. “Do they live together? Is he in Aspen?” “Don’t know. Hailey always says it’s none of my business. She never wants to talk about him. The only thing she said to me was that they were working their problems out and were getting married. Then she told me she was going to Vegas for a few days with friends for a bachelorette party. Short of following her, I can’t get any information out of her. And believe me, I’ve thought about putting a tail on her. But if she ever found out, she’d be really hurt. She lives a quiet life in Aspen, and she’s never wanted media attention or to

Hailey slowly slid out of bed, trying to make it to the bathroom. She didn’t have to search—there was one right inside the bedroom, close enough to see. Still, as she sat on the edge of the bed with her head pounding, the few steps to the toilet felt like miles. Get up. Move before you embarrass yourself. “Need help?” Hailey jumped at the deep, smooth voice. Even though Jayden spoke softly, to her aching head it sounded like he had shouted. “No,” she muttered, embarrassed, her gaze landing on the firm abs right in front of her. Somehow, he’d gotten out of bed and was now standing there, and she hadn’t even noticed. Jayden wore only dark navy boxer briefs, nothing else. Mortified, Hailey couldn’t bring herself to even look at him. Without saying anything, Jayden lifted Hailey and carried her to the bathroom. He set her feet gently on the floor, then walked out and closed the door. Thank God. Hailey quickly handled her urgent needs, then leaned against the vanity to wash her h

Jayden shrugged. “My business in Las Vegas was finished. And I brought your cat here because I wasn’t sure anyone was taking care of her while you were delayed. The Roberts family, who own this place, are friends of mine. I had some business with Terrence Roberts, so I brought you with me.” Hailey had heard of the Roberts family. Everyone in Colorado knew about them—they were insanely rich and owned nearly everything around here. “Okay.” She sighed. “That makes it easier, I guess. At least I’m back. I take it I should thank you for bringing me to Colorado.” Clearly, he had carried her onto his private jet. She already felt guilty for being such a burden. Getting back to Aspen would be easy now. “If you don’t mind, I’ll grab a shower and get out of your way. I can probably rent a car in town, but I might need a ride there.” She turned quickly, embarrassed she’d lost control so badly she couldn’t remember two whole days of her life. She didn’t get far. Jayden caught her upper arm
