Zach’s smile froze. “What do you mean? I get the grab my things and leave‘ part. But what do you mean by ‘don’t come back?” 

Winter replied, “You heard me. I’ve told you that I don’t get tangled up with men I’m working with. After last night, it’s clear we’re too involved. The only solution is to stop working together.” 

Zach slowly sat up straight, staring at her with a dark, unreadable gaze. “I wasn’t drunk last night, and judging by your reaction, you weren’t either, right?” 

“That’s right.” 

They were both fully sober when it happened, so they couldn’t claim they were drunk as an excuse. 

Zach chuckled bitterly. “So, we just slept together, I’m still sitting here half–naked, and you’re ready to kick me to the curb, huh?” 

Winter’s lips twitched at his words. “You chose not to wear clothes; that’s on you. And if you kicked to the curb, I won’t stop you.” 

“Like hell I do!” Zach’s voice rose. “Winter, do you even realize how you sound right now?”

Zach had never believed in karma, but at that moment, it hit him square in the face. “Who the hell said I need you to take responsibility? It’s not like I can’t find another woman!” 

Winter sighed in relief. “Good, then we’re on the same page.” 

Zach clenched his fists, but his face remained composed, his tone still measured. “Like you said, we’re adults. It happened, and we don’t need to dwell on it. It was just fun, nothing more. 

“But what’s this about stopping our partnership? Are you seriously dropping everything? What happened to honoring our agreements?” 

Winter replied thoughtfully, “When personal feelings get involved in business, things can go south fast. You know that better than anyone. Ending things now, before it gets messy, is the smart move for both of 

US.”

well as she expected. 

Zach smirked, his lips pulling to the side. “My mom video–called us last night and saw how cozy we were. Now, you want me to tell her today that we broke up? You think she’ll buy that?” 

Winter stayed silent. 

“You want to end this? Fine. But you’re going to have to deal with my mom. Once you figure that out, I’ll agree.”
