I shrugged. “He taught them to me.”
“Again, there’s a lot you don’t know.”
“Whatever.” I shook my head, feeling like there was a missing piece to the puzzle that was Jax Colton. “Anyway, what about you?”
“What about me?”
“Do you have a girlfriend? Wife?”
“I was married, but we’re divorced now.”
“Oh, I’m sorry.”
“Don’t be. She was fucking the pool guy.”
“Yeah, I know how that goes.”
He narrowed his eyes. “You think Jax cheated on you?”
“I don’t think, I know.”
“How?”
“I don’t want to talk about this anymore. Let’s go back to you. How long have you been his agent?”
“Since the start of his career.”
“How did you meet?”
“Fraternity in college.”
“Interesting. He never talked about you, but then again, Jax didn’t tell me much about anything back then.”
“He’s a private person.”
“Yeah.”
“But he does love you, Sophie. More than you know.”
“I find it funny you think he’s in love with me, considering he’s never said those words to me.”
“Not even back then?”
“Especially not then.”
“Then what was your draw to him?”
“You know Jax better than I do. He’s a charmer. He always has been.”
“Well, you left quite an impression on him. After all these years, he thinks you’re the one who got away.”
“He told you that?”
“He doesn’t have to. As you said, I know him better than he knows himself. Jax only has one fear in life.”
“And what’s that?”
“Abandonment.”
