Boardroom Bride - Page 435

That's how many weeks I waited before I mentioned anything to Mom. I mean, at first I wondered what I would even tell her.

"Hey, can you tell me where my stepbrother is, because I miss fucking him?" is not something that I could start a convo out with. And on the same note, if I acted too into where Cody was and what he was doing, she'd get suspicious. Then I'd have to come clean and tell her about the whole stepbrother fucking in the end.

So I worked up my courage and made my way over to the townhouse she had moved into after getting married.

Mom's always glad to see me. Even though we live in the same city, we sometimes go more than a week without seeing each other.

At first my mom was glad to see me. She asked the maid to bring us some tea and we sat by the window in the living room so we could catch up.

But it's my mom, you know? She gave birth to me. She knew exactly when something was bothering me.

"Kim, honey," she said to me. "What's bothering you?"

I remember sighing and looking at her. "I have something to tell you," I said and her eyes widened with concern. "It's about Cody and I."

"Your stepbrother?" she asked me. I nodded. "What about him?" she followed up.

"I...think I...might be in love with him," I said hesitantly, looking at signs of reaction from Mom.

There were none. What the hell, I remember thinking.

"We've been seeing each other and we've been...uhm, together a bunch," I said to her.

I was expecting horror.

Revulsion.

But her eyes just twinkled.

“Oh baby, you think I didn't know that?" she asked me with mirth in her voice. "Cody's a handsome man, I'm surprised you waited this long to take him for a spin."

Can I just say that what was going through my head at this point was simply, 'Oh My God'.

Take him for a spin?

"I mean, Kimberly, I've only been married to his father for a year; do you think that makes him your biological brother or something?" Mom asked.

When she saw my eyes, she let out a laugh.

"Is this what you're worried about, hun?" she asked me. When I nodded, she brought me over for a hug. "Oh, I love you so much, dear. Thank you for making your old mother smile."

When she let go of me, she was smiling. I was smiling back.

"You're such a good girl, Kim, I know you'll never go down the dark paths I did, and I'm relieved in a way," she told me. "I've done things that you can only probably find in an Eddie Cleveland book."

I rolled my eyes. I never liked it when Mom tried to tell me her sex s

tories and despite the fact that I had just confessed my taboo relationship, I didn't want to hear it from Mom either.

But at least she wasn't freaking out. There was that I guess. Now all I could do was wait.

Two.

That's how many months I've been waiting since I talked to Mom about Cody.

I mean, I've tried my best to get on with my life. Mayor Anders makes sure with the number of scandals gripping his administration that we're never short of work.

I try to go out with my friends, go to the gym, do some reading.
