My Hot Alpha novel Chapter 244

“Please don’t hang up”. She begged.

I clocked Jake walking back to the car.

“I can’t do this right now”. Of all the days she could have called she chose today. I don’t need to be thinking about her right now. After everything that happened and the way she left things she thought it was okay just to call me and act like nothing had happened.

“Leah please”.

I chewed the inside of my cheek. I drove myself stir crazy trying to think of reasons why she would leave me. I was just coming to terms with her not being in my life anymore and then she does this.

What was I to do with that?

“I said I can’t do this right now”. I ended the call and turned my phone off.

I swear someone up there had it in for me.

“Coffee and snacks”. He grinned.

I took the coffee from him and placed the bag at my feet. He could always tell when something was wrong so there was no point in trying to hide it. Starting the car, he pulled out of the gas station and back onto the road.

“My gran called me”.

“What, when?”.

“Just there”.

“What did she say?”. He asked.

“Nothing. I told her I couldn’t talk right now so I hung up”.

“Do you want to talk with her?”.

“No”. Okay maybe I said that a little too quickly. “Not today anyway”.

Nobody was ruining this for me. I didn’t care who they were.

“Babe”.

“Oh, for god’s sake “. I grabbed my phone from my purse and switched it on. He wasn’t going to let it go unless I reached out to her. “I can’t she called me from an unknown number “.

I noticed I had a few missed calls. Again, an unknown number.

Obviously, my gran.

“Did you turn your phone off? “. He frowned.

“Today was supposed to be about us. Not everyone else “.

“Baby “.

“If she calls again, I’ll answer. Happy? “.

“Ecstatic “.
