Boss, Your Ex-Wife is Unreachable Now! novel Chapter 396

Seeing this, Waller couldn't hold back. He moved the hand Willow was using to cover his lips and kissed her again.

It wasn't a quick peck this time, but a deep, lingering kiss.

At first, Waller took the lead. But in truth, they were both beginners. Fortunately, they were fast learners, quickly moving from hesitant exploration to a passionate exchange.

Not far away, Beasley sat with his car window rolled down, taking in the sight of Willow and Waller making out against the car.

A wave of jealousy consumed him, raw and blistering.

He clenched his fists tight, his jaw locked in anger.

To hell with finding evidence! To hell with taking it slow! He couldn't wait any longer.

If he kept dragging his feet, Willow would end up in another man's arms, getting married, and starting a family.

Just the thought of it tore him apart.

He rolled up the window, shutting out the world. Tipping his head back against the seat, he closed his eyes in misery.

After a long moment, he opened his eyes again. The fiery rage that had turned them bloodshot was gone, replaced by an icy, chilling stare.

He pulled out his cell phone and made a call.

When Rosamund saw Beasley's name on her screen, she could hardly believe her eyes.

Was he actually calling her of his own accord?

Thrilled, she answered the phone, keeping her voice soft. "Hello, Beasley?"

"Let's meet. There's something I want to talk to you about in person."

His tone was completely unreadable, leaving Rosamund guessing as to what he wanted.

Still, a meeting meant face time, and face time meant opening the door to new possibilities.

Playing the gracious friend, she replied, "Sure. I've been back for a while now and even wrapped up a movie, but we never got the chance to catch up over dinner."

She paused for a second before asking, "Should we invite York too?"

"No," he said flatly. "Just us."
