The Prison-Made Queen novel Chapter 643

Leilani took a deep breath, her gaze fixed straight ahead. "I saw you at the hotel the other day."

If they were going to reconcile, some things needed to be said. Leilani didn't want to let the misunderstanding fester. A thorn like that, left buried in her heart, would poison their future.

Callahan's fingers tightened slightly on the steering wheel. He knew she was ready to have a serious talk and immediately gave her his full attention. "Which day?"

"The day..." She bit her lip, her voice soft. "The day you told me you were in a meeting at the office."

The car fell silent. A flicker of understanding crossed Callahan's face. So that's what this was about. No wonder she'd been giving him the cold shoulder ever since that day. She thought... Of course. He finally understood why the normally cool and collected Leilani had been so upset.

He was quiet for a moment, then let out a low chuckle.

Leilani frowned. "What's so funny?"

Callahan turned to her, his eyes full of exasperated affection. "Leilani, did you think I was cheating on you?"

Her ears grew hot, and she turned away. "I didn't say that. I just want an explanation."

After all, what kind of legitimate business meeting happens at a hotel?

"But you thought it," Callahan said, his tone certain.

Leilani didn't respond, which was as good as a confession. She just waited for his explanation.
