Chapter 34: Madison

It felt like my heart was tearing itself apart from the inside out. 

What the hell happened?

His words just now… And the way he looked at me… It was as if he couldn’t stand to be close to me anymore.

I was utterly confused. What about two nights ago? Today? 

Had I read everything so very wrong?

Did he really only see me as his son’s nanny? Still? Even after those infinitely sweet and intimate moments between us?

Well, technically, I was still Chris’s nanny. Noah hadn’t stopped paying me for my services. Did those services include sex now, as well? Was that the way he saw it? 

I supposed I’d thought because my feelings for both the Hayes boys had changed, that they’d started to think of me as part of their family as well, but the truth was that I was only an employee in this house. 

The sooner I accepted it, the better for me.
